Protective earth grounding
Protective earth grounding for the DS 300 S.U.M. system and
controller is provided through the ground terminal of the plug
providing power. Source power to the controller must provide
grounding to this terminal in order to minimize the hazard of a possible
shock in the occurrence of a fault condition. The equipment should
NOT be operated without a proper protective earth ground.
Environmental conditions
• Operating: 17 to 27°C; 20 to 80% relative humidity, non-
condensing
• Storage: -25 to 65°C
• Installation category II (over voltage) in accordance with IEC 664
• Altitude Limit: 2,000 meters
Electrical connections
Power should be supplied by a non-GFCI 15 amp circuit.
Ground faults occur when current is leaking somewhere, in effect,
electricity is escaping to the ground. Electrocution can occur when
the human body serves as the path for the leakage to the ground. A
ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) senses the current flowing to the
ground and switches off the power (trips the GFCI) in a fraction of a
second at currents well below those that are considered dangerous.
Due to the sensitivity of GFCIs to electrical leakage (a few mA), it is
recommended that the S.U.B. NOT be plugged into a GFCI outlet.
Main power: 20 A 108–240 VAC or 208–250 VAC, 1 Phase, 50/60 Hz
circuit.
