CIRCUTOR's after-sales service. 2.- PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The CEM-C12c static single-phase energy meter measures class 1 (IEC 62053-21) / class B (EN50470), with multifunction, RS-485 communications and DIN rail standard installations. It is the ideal solution for residential and commercial installations.
The CEM-C12c device must be installed by authorised and qualified staff. The measuring systems switched off before handling, altering the connections or replacing the device.
CEM-C12c 3�2�- INSTALLATION Terminals, opening covers or removing elements can expose parts that are hazardous to the touch while the device is powered. Do not use the device until it is fully installed. Installation instruction: 1�- Choose 35mm standard DIN rail (the length is confirmed by yourself), fixed them in the location which are waiting for installation.
