Compliance

•UL and cUL listed

•Conforms to EN 62368-1 (Part 1 Safety Requirements)

•CE listed

•FCC compliant

Electrical and Auxiliary Wiring Specification

•EchoTouch is powered by either Auxiliary power or by Power over Ethernet (PoE 802.3af).

Note: This product is intended for use with a Listed power source (LPS) marked “Class 2", or LPS rated 24 VDC, minimum 0.59 A, or 48 VDC (PoE), minimum 0.234 A.

-Auxiliary Power - 24 VDC auxiliary power requires two 16 AWG (1.5 mm2) wires and terminates to the provided removable pluggable connector. The unit draws 400 mA (typical) during normal operation, with a maximum of 750 mA draw.

-Power over Ethernet - PoE requires Category 5 cable or approved equal with an RJ45 (Category 5 compliant) connector. EchoTouch includes an RJ45 receptacle on the back panel for connection of PoE. As required, separately order an Ethernet Cat5 Termination Kit from ETC (order part number 4101A2003) which includes building wire termination supplies, instructions, and an Ethernet patch cable.

Note: PoE and all interconnected information technology equipment (ITE) are intended for intra-building connection.

Note: When both 24 VDC auxiliary power and PoE are connected to EchoTouch, auxiliary power will be the preferred input.

•EchoTouch requires an ESD Ground wire regardless of installation of grounded metal conduit.

-ESD Ground - requires one 14 AWG (2.5 mm2) building wire and

utilizes the provided ESD ground wire pigtail and 3-position WAGO 221 Series LEVER-NUTS® provided in the installation termination kit.
