Indicates a situation which, if not avoided, could result in damage to the equipment or environment, or data loss.

Caution!

Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in minor or moderate injury.

Warning!

Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.

1.2 Safety precautions

Caution!

The Low Voltage power supply unit must comply with EN/UL 60950. The power supply must be a SELV-LPS unit or a SELV - Class 2 unit (Safety Extra Low Voltage - Limited Power Source).

Caution!

Installation should only be performed by qualified service personnel in accordance with applicable local codes.

1.3 Important safety instructions

Read, follow, and retain for future reference all of the following safety instructions. Follow all warnings before operating the device. – Unplug the unit from the outlet before cleaning. Follow any instructions provided with the

unit. – Clean only with a dry cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. – Do not install device near any heat sources such as radiators, heaters, stoves, or other

equipment (including amplifiers) that produce heat. – Never spill liquid of any kind on the device. – Take precautions to protect the device from power and lightning surges. – Unless qualified, do not attempt to service a damaged device yourself. Refer all servicing

to qualified service personnel. – Install in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions in accordance with applicable

local codes. – Use only attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer. – Protect all connection cables from possible damage, particularly at connection points. – Do not defeat the safety purpose of a polarized or ground‑type plug. – Permanently connected devices must have an external, readily operable mains plug or

all‑pole mains switch in accordance with installation rules. – Pluggable devices must have an easily accessible socket-outlet installed near the

equipment.

Bosch Sicherheitssysteme GmbH Installation manual 2018.02 | V1 | DOC

– The plug-socket combination must be accessible at all times, because it serves as the

main disconnecting device.

– Any openings in the unit enclosure are provided for ventilation to prevent overheating and

ensure reliable operation. Do not block or cover these openings.

– Do not place the unit in an enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided, or the

manufacturer's instructions have been adhered to. – Install the unit only in a dry, weather-protected location. – Do not use this unit near water, for example near a bathtub, washbowl, sink, laundry

basket, in a damp or wet basement, near a swimming pool, in an outdoor installation, or

in any area classified as a wet location. – To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, do not expose this unit to rain or moisture. – Never push objects of any kind into this unit through openings as they may touch

dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that could result in a fire or electrical shock. – Power supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or

pinched by items placed upon or against them, playing particular attention to cords and

plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance. – Operate the unit only from the type of power source indicated on the label. Use only the

power supply provided or power supply units with UL approval and a power output

according to LPS or NEC Class 2. – Do not open or remove the cover to service this unit yourself. Opening or removing covers

may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified

service personnel. – Be sure the service technician uses replacement parts specified by the manufacturer.

Unauthorized substitutions could void the warranty and cause fire, electrical shock, or

other hazards. – Safety checks should be performed upon completion of service or repairs to the unit to

ensure proper operating condition. – Observe the relevant electrical engineering regulations. – When installing in a switch cabinet, ensure that the unit and the power supply units have

sufficient grounding. – Connect the unit to an earthed mains socket. – Use proper CMOS/MOS-FET handling precautions to avoid electrostatic discharge (ESD). – For protection of the device, the branch circuit protection must be secured with a

maximum fuse rating of 16A. This must be in accordance with NEC800 (CEC Section 60). – Disconnect the power before moving the unit. Move the unit with care. Excessive force or

shock may damage the unit and the hard disk drives. – All the input/output ports are Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) circuits. SELV circuits

should only be connected to other SELV circuits. – If safe operation of the unit cannot be ensured, remove it from service and secure it to

prevent unauthorized operation. In such cases, have the unit checked by Bosch Security

Systems. – Disconnect power supply and arrange for the device to be serviced by qualified personnel

in the following cases, because safe operation is no longer possible:

– The power cable/plug is damaged.

– Liquids or foreign bodies have entered the device.

– The device has been exposed to water or extreme environmental conditions.

– The device is faulty despite correct installation/operation.

– The device has fallen from a height, or the housing has been damaged.

– The device was stored over a long period under adverse conditions.

– The device performance is noticeably changed. – Installation of the unit must comply with local and national electrical codes. – Cluster media converters must be installed in a restricted access location. – When installing the unit into a movable cabinet or rack, install from the bottom up for

best stability. – Use only manufacturer’s supplied power cords and cables with manufacturer equipment. – DC-based systems must be installed in a restricted access location and the two input

power terminals for the DC power supply must be connected to separate isolated branch

circuits. – A qualified service person is required to make the DC power connection according to

local and national electric codes / guidelines. – Ensure your DC mains supply is earthed at the point of generation per IEC 60950-1. – To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage, allow internal components

time to cool before touching them. – Ensure that the equipment is properly supported or braced when installing options. – This equipment is designed for connection to a grounded outlet. The grounding type plug

is an important safety feature. To avoid the risk of electrical shock or damage to the

equipment, do not disable this feature. – Risk of electrical shock - If there is evidence of fire, water, or structural damage, never

turn on the power to the equipment. – Risk of electrical shock - Before removing or installing a power supply, turn off the power

switch, and unplug the power cord. – Pinching hazard - As you push the canister into the slot, ensure that your fingers are not

pinched between the lever and the canister. The lever automatically moves toward the

closed position as the canister is pushed into its slot. – Do not remove more than one canister from the enclosure while power to the enclosure

is turned on. – Bosch products may contain Class 1 laser devices, Class 1M laser devices, or both. – Keep away from moving fan blades. – Do not use equipment in the cabinet as a shelf or work space.

1.4 Warning notices

This product relies on the building’s installation for short-circuit (overcurrent) protection. Ensure that a fuse or circuit breaker no larger than 120 VAC, 20A U.S. (240 VAC, 16A international) is used on the phase conductors (all current-carrying conductors).

Warning!

High leakage current. Earth connection essential before connecting supply.

Warning!

To prevent personal injury or damage to the unit, never attempt to lift or tilt the unit using the handles of controller modules, power supplies, fans, and so on. These types of handles are not designed to support the weight of the unit.

Warning!

An electrical outlet that is not correctly wired could place hazardous voltage on metal parts of the system or the devices that attach to that system. It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure that the outlet is correctly wired and grounded to prevent an electrical shock.

Bosch Sicherheitssysteme GmbH Installation manual 2018.02 | V1 | DOC
