This product can cause a DC current in the protective conductor. Where a residual current device (RCD) is used for extra protection, only an RCD of Type B (time de- layed) shall be used on the supply side of this product. See also Danfoss Application Note on RCD, MN.90.GX.YY.
It is important to follow the recommendations regarding installation on IT-mains, since sufficient protection of the complete installation must be observed. Not taking care using relevant moni- toring devices for IT-mains may result in damage. MG.28.M1.02 - VLT ® is a registered Danfoss trademark...
