Bulletin 1694 Electronic circuit protection for 24V DC
WARNING: Electrostatically sensitive sub-assemblies can be destroyed by voltages far below the human perception threshold. These voltages already occur if you touch a component
or electrical terminals of a sub-assembly without being electrostatically discharged. The damage of a sub-assembly caused by an overvoltage is often not immediately
recognised, but will be noticed only after a longer operating time.
Mounting or actuation of the 1694 connector arm must only be effected at dead-voltage. For start-up the 1694 connector arm must be closed.
Device to be installed, operated and maintained by trained personnel only.
To secure device properly against unintended access, product shall be mounted in locked cabinet.
The device can't be serviced or repaired.
Do not open device's enclosure.
Bulletin 1694 Electronic circuit protection for 24V DC
Bulletin 1694 Electronic Circuit Protection is a modular solution with a max. system capacity of 40A. The protection modules come in a fix current rating
in a range from 1A...10A. Designed for 24V DC circuits, the 1694 provides comprehensive protection against short circuit and overcurrent conditions
while allowing for inrush current.
