DANGER

HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, BURN
OR EXPLOSION

b turn off all power supplying the Sepam
and the equipment in which it is installed
before working on it.
b always use a proprely rated voltage
sensing device to confim that power is off.
b replace all devices, doors, and covers
before turning on power to this equip ment.
b before energizi ng the power equipment,
replace all barriers and covers.

Failure to observe this instruction will
result in death, serious injury or

Quick start

Storage

Sepam may be stored in its original packaging in a closed
sheltered location :

b ambient temperature: -25 °C ... +70 °C (or -13 °F ... +160 °F)
b relative humidity y 90 %.

Periodic checking of the storage environment and of the packaging
on a yearly basis is recommended.

Commissioning

Once installed, the Sepam must be energ ized as soon as possible,
especially in a damp location (humidity u 90 %).
Storing an unenergized and unpackaged Sepam f or a long period
may damage the unit.

Identification

Each Sepam comes in a single package that contains the base
unit and its connector.

Other optional accessories such as modules, current or voltage
input connectors and cables come in separate packages.

To identify a Sepam, check the 2 labels on the right side panel of
the base unit that describe the firmware and hardware fe atures of
the product:

b hardware equipment label (for instance Sepam series 20)
