Intended use

The CU8110-0060 UPS is intended for mounting on a DIN rail in an industrial control cabinet or terminal box.
Alternatively, the UPS can be equipped with a mounting plate and mounted on the rear panel of the control
cabinet. The UPS supports in particular Industrial PCs, Embedded PCs, Panels and Panel PCs in case of
voltages fluctuations or failures and this way ensures a safe shutdown of the system.
The UPS has been developed for a working environment that satisfies protection class IP20. This involves
finger protection and protection against solid foreign objects up to 12.5 mm, but not protection against water.
Operation of the devices in wet and dusty environments is not permitted. The specified limits for electrical
and technical data must be adhered to.
The CU8110-0060 UPS is maintenance-free. The energy module (EDLC) does not need to be replaced even
after several decades.
Improper use
The UPS is not suitable for operation in the following areas:
• Potentially explosive atmospheres.
• In areas with an aggressive environment that is enriched, for example, with aggressive gases or
chemicals.
• Living areas. In living areas, the relevant standards and guidelines for interference emissions must be
adhered to, and the devices must be installed in housings or control boxes with suitable attenuation of
shielding.
