2. Important safety notices
The DLoG MPC 6 was designed and built according to modern technology and accepted
safety regulations. However, the operation of the DLoG MPC 6 can endanger personnel
or third parties and cause damage to the device and other material assets when for
example the device is
• operated by untrained or uninformed personnel.
• not operated correctly.
• operated and maintained incorrectly.
The operator commitments in regards to safety (accident prevention regulations, work
protection) are to be followed.
2.1. Initial operation of the device
Area of application
The device is not designed for use in life-support systems or critical safety systems
where system malfunction can lead to the direct or indirect endangerment of human
life. The operator shall take full responsibility for using the device in these situations.
The device cannot be used in combination with safety functions for machines and
equipment which have to conform to the requirements of EN 954-1.
Choice of location
The ambient conditions at the point of installation must comply with the device’s
protection class.
4 Manual DLoG MPC 6
Important safety notices
Installation/initial operation
The device is not supplied with a disconnector (switch) that can be accessed
externally. The power supply connector is therefore used as a disconnector. Therefore
it needs to be easily accessible. If it is necessary to establish a fixed connection, an
easily accessible disconnecting device (e.g. a switch such as a circuit breaker) should
be installed close to the device. Ensure that the power cable is laid so that it is
mechanically protected.
The power supply cables must be laid in accordance with the applicable local
installation regulations.
Radio performance
Do not exceed the maximum permissible transmitting power which is specified by
each separate country. DLoG MPC 6 users must verify this themselves.
Risk of injury
The unit could fall during transit or installation and cause injury. Always ensure that
there are two persons available when installing or removing the device.
Supply of fresh air
The DLoG MPC 6 is based on a passive cooling concept. As a result, the waste heat
which is produced inside the device is emitted over the surface of the housing. For this
system to function properly, sufficient fresh air circulation is required. Never install the
system in a closed environment where the cooling air is unable to dissipate
accumulated heat to the outside.
If the DLoG MPC 6 is not able to draw in fresh cooling air, this may cause overheating
and severe damage to the unit.
The maximum allowed ambient temperature for the system needs to be taken into
account for the concrete application area.
