    C: Wrong: Torsion due to torque Mounting the P-843 and Connecting to a Protective Earth Conductor The protective earth for the P-843 is connected as follows: ■ Mounting hole in the base of the P-843 ■ Suitable, conductive screw ■ The underlying surface connected to the protective earth conductor Tools and Accessories ■...
  • Page 16: Fixing The Load

    If the protective earth conductor is missing or not properly connected, risk of dangerous touch voltages on the P-843 in the event of malfunction or failure of the system. If there are touch voltages, touching the P-843 can lead to minor injury due to electric shock.
  • Page 17: Connecting The P-843

    ► Do not screw the piezo actuator tight at both ends. Fixing the Load 1. Use the open-end wrench to hold the tip of the P-843 in place. 2. Tighten the nut to secure the load on the tip. 3. Remove the open-end wrench from the tip.
