Climatic Stress Tests

Temperatures
Standards:
Type tested (acc. IEC 60086-2-1 and -2, Test Bd, for
16 h)
Admissible temporary operating temperature (tested
for 96 h)
Recommended for permanent operation (according to
IEC 60255-6)
Limit temperatures for storage
Limit temperatures during transport
Storage and transport of the device with factory packaging!
1)
Limit temperatures for normal operation (i.e. output
relays not energized)
1)
Limit temperatures under maximum load (max. cont.
admissible input and output values)
Humidity
Admissible humidity
It is recommended that all devices be installed so that they are not exposed to direct sunlight nor subject to large fluc-
tuations in temperature that may cause condensation to occur.
4.1.8 Service Conditions
The protection device is designed for installation in normal relay rooms and plants, so that electromagnetic immunity
is ensured if installation is done properly.
In addition the following is recommended:
• Contacts and relays operating within the same cabinet or on the same relay board with digital protection equipment,
should be in principle provided with suitable surge suppression components.
• For substations with operating voltages of 100 kV and above, all external cables shall be shielded with a conductive
shield earthed at both ends. For substations with lower operating voltages, no special measures are normally re-
quired.
• Do not withdraw or insert individual modules/boards while the protective device is energized. In withdrawn condi-
tion, some components are electrostatically endangered; during handling the ESD standards (for Electrostatic Sen-
sitive Devices) must be observed. They are not endangered when inserted into the case.
