Installing the switch-mode power supply

7 Installing the switch-mode power
supply
7.1 Fastening the switch-mode power supply
When selecting the installation location, pay attention to the following instructions:
• The switch-mode power supply must be installed vertically on a wall (maximum
ambient temperature 50 °C) or horizontally on the ground or on a pedestal (max-
imum ambient temperature 40 °C and maximum load 75 %).
• The optimum installation position is vertically on a wall.
• The switch-mode power supply must be installed in a location that is protected
from moisture.
• The switch-mode power supply must not be installed in areas with easily
flammable materials (e.g. gas cylinder lockers).
• The switch-mode power supply must not be installed in a dusty environment.
• The place of installation must be well ventilated. A ventilation system must be
available when the device is installed in small, enclosed spaces. Please observe
the minimum clearance around the switch-mode power supply (fig. 3, page 4).
• Ensure that the ventilation openings are not covered.
• When ambient temperatures are higher than those stated above (e.g. in engine
or heating compartments, or when exposed to direct sunlight), the heat pro-
duced by the switch-mode power supply when under load can lead to automatic
shutdown.
• The device must be installed on a level and sufficiently sturdy surface.
