Grounding
As a rule, the DPCS/E housing is isolated from the installation floor face using an insulator.
If isolation is not possible due to unavoidable reasons, observe the following precautions.
(1) Isolate the DPCS housing from the installation floor face.
(2) If it is not possible, isolate the entire components from the housing upon installation, and
ground them to the dedicated grounding.
Insert insulating washers between the in-control system (base unit), loop system (base
unit, marshaling unit), loop system (base unit) and other components (distribution unit,
line filter, etc.) and the housing frame when installing them to the housing.
In this case, connect each components to the dedicated grounding line without looping
the IV line.
