The manual as well as all documents has to be read and followed strictly before installation. Otherwise warranty and guarantee can be cancelled partly or completely. Any liability on the part of Bicker Elektronik is excluded for possible existing errors as well as non-compliance with the instructions for use and installation.
DC401W B2 Intended use During installation, it is recommended to thermally connect the DC401W to the housing of the application to ensure good heat transfer. The ambient temperature specified in the technical details is the air temperature directly at the components and must not be undercut (minimum value) or exceeded (maximum value).
4. The assembly of the device and the electrical installation have to be state of the art. 5. The electrical, thermal and mechanical limit values have to be observed. 6. The DC401W wiring specifications - as described in this manual - have to be followed. Revision 1-0...
