Fire Safety & Security Products
This section describes the danger levels and the relevant safety regulations
applicable to the use of the products described in this manual. Please read the
following work instructions as well as the preceding section
thoroughly before beginning any work.
Danger potential to individuals
NK8237 units are powered with low voltage DC. While there are no specific safety
regulations that apply to these devices, modifications made to safety/security
systems in general may present a risk to the safety of the individual performing
those modifications, as well as to the equipment itself.
If used, the NE8001 cabinet is powered with AC voltage and the required power
cable should be installed following scrupulously the instructions given in this
manual.
Country-specific standards
Siemens Building Technologies products are developed and produced in
compliance with the relevant international and European safety standards. This
document provides warnings and recommendations specific to NK8000 products.
Any additional country-specific or local safety standards and/or regulations that
apply concerning project planning, installation, operation, and device disposal must
also be taken into account.
Note: As for any electrical equipment, proper grounding is critical to the safe
operation as it provides a protection against electrical shocks. Before starting any
activity, be sure that the electrical installation complies with relevant regulations
and conforms to local safety standards.
Assembly and installation
The NK8237 units and NE800x cabinets should always be installed in a clean and
stable environment; see the specific requirements given in the Technical Data
section of the specific datasheets.
In particular, keep units and cabinets away from the following:
High levels of dust
High temperature and humidity
Locations where it might became wet
Vibration and impact
Also, abide by the safety regulations of the connected devices.
Disposal and recycling
These devices include electrical and electronic components and must
not be disposed of as domestic waste.
Current local legislation must be observed.
The NK8237 units have been manufactured as much as possible from materials
that can be recycled or disposed of in a manner that is not environmentally
damaging. However, they contain parts (batteries) that require disposal in a
controlled waste stream according to local environmental standards and/or
regulations.
