11. Terminals and Wiring

All terminals are easy to access when mounted on the panel. Input and output terminals are separated from each
other (input below, output above) to help in error-free wiring.

Instructions:
a) Use appropriate copper cables that are designed for an operating temperature of:

60°C for ambient up to 45°C and 75°C for ambient up to 60°C minimum.

b) Follow

national installation codes and installation regulations!

c) Ensure that all strands of a stranded wire enter the terminal connection!
d) Up to two stranded wires with the same cross section are permitted in one connection point (except PE wire).
e) Do not use the unit without PE connection.
f) Screws of unused terminal compartments should be securely tightened.
g) Ferrules are allowed.
h) Do not connect or disconnect the wires from the terminals below -25°C (-13°F).

12. Lifetime Expectancy and MTBF

These units are extremely reliable and use only the highest quality materials. The number of critical components such
as electrolytic capacitors has been reduced.

*) The

Lifetime expectancy shown in the table indicates the minimum operating hours (service life) and is determined by the lifetime

expectancy of the built-in electrolytic capacitors. Lifetime expectancy is specified in operational hours and is calculated according to the
capacitor’s manufacturer specification. The manufacturer of the electrolytic capacitors only guarantees a maximum life of up to 15 years
(131 400h). Any number exceeding this value is a calculated theoretical lifetime which can be used to compare devices.

**)

MTBF stands for Mean Time Between Failure, which is calculated according to statistical device failures, and indicates reliability of a
device. It is the statistical representation of the likelihood of a unit to fail and does not necessarily represent the life of a product.

The MTBF figure is a statistical representation of the likelihood of a device to fail. A MTBF figure of e.g. 1 000 000h means that
statistically one unit will fail every 100 hours if 10 000 units are installed in the field. However, it can not be determined if the failed unit
has been running for 50 000h or only for 100h.
