Introduction to Safety
The information in this section is intended to get that equipment is properly installed and handled in
order to maintain it in safety conditions. It is assumed that everyone who will be associated with the
equipment will be familiar with the contents of that Safety section.
When electrical equipment is in operation, dangerous voltages will be present in certain parts of the
equipment. Failure to observe warning notices, an incorrect or improper use may endanger
personnel and equipment and also cause personal injury or physical damage.
Proper and safe operation of the equipment depends on appropriate shipping and handling, proper
storage, installation and commissioning, and on careful operation, maintenance and servicing. For
this reason only qualified personnel may work on or operate the equipment.
Qualified personnel are individuals who:
• Are familiar with the installation, commissioning, and operation of the equipment and of the
system to which it is being connected.
• Have read and understood the information on the device and its user manual.
• Are able to safely perform switching operations in accordance with accepted safety engineering
practices and are authorized to energize and de-energize equipment and to isolate, ground,
and label it.
• Are trained in the care and use of safety apparatus in accordance with safety engineering
practices.
• Are trained in emergency procedures (first aid).
It is necessary to consider that the documentation of the device collects the instructions for its
installation, set up and operation. However, the manuals could not cover all the possible
circumstances neither include specific information on all the details.
In case of questions or specific problems, contact with his office of sales Schneider Electric or with
the center of attention to the customer and request the necessary information.

All devices with high voltage must be disconnected before dismount a module from the DIN rail.
Earthing
For the cleaning of the device it is only necessary using a dry cloth by the surface when it detects
excessive presence of dust or any element deposited on the surface.
Because of the variety of uses of the product, the managers of the application and use of this
device of control will have to take the measures to ensure the fulfillment of all the requests of
security and provision of each application. The requests do reference to the applicable laws,
regulations, codes and standard.
Before energizer the device, it has to be placed to earth properly such as it indicates in sections
1.5.1 and 1.5.2.
When installing the device, ground is the first thing that should be connected and the last one
Saitel can need put to earth for two distinct needs:
• For purposes of electrical safety (Protective Earth, PE).
• Improve the behavior in EMC and derive perturbations to earth (functional Earth).
Electrical Safety
Only qualified personnel, with knowledge about hazards associate with electrical equipment is
allowed to install Saitel DR. In general, the installation will be following IEC 61010-1
recommendations in order to be compliant with this norm.
The DIN rail must be installed on a metallic surface. This metallic surface must have
available an M4 screw marked with this symbol. The ground of the cabinet or
installation must be connected to this screw, according to the norm IEC 61010-1.
Saitel DR modules have a metallic enclosure offering protection for isolation faults. Earthing is
done by the metal rail fixing clip.
A dedicated connection with green/yellow wire should be used to assure electric continuity to the
installation protective earth. Section of these wires must be enough in order to support 25 A
