Consideration for electrical noise Electrical noise generated by other equipment may cause a Switch failure. Please develop the power facility plan to observe the following points. ⚫ Do not connect a device (such as an air conditioner) whose power is repeatedly turned on and off by a relay, micro-switch, etc., to the branch circuit of the power supply used for the Switch.
Leakage current The Switch is equipped with a noise filter to prevent failure caused by electrical noise. As a result, leakage current flows through the safety ground wire (class D grounding). A maximum leakage current of 1 mA flows per device, so if you are required to install an earth leakage breaker under the Fire Services Act and other laws, take this into consideration.
Environmental requirements (1) Dust The Switch uses cooling fans, so do not install it in a humid or dusty place. The dust conditions for the Switch are as follows. ➢ Suspended particulate concentration: 0.15 mg/m or less (JIS Z 8813, General Requirements for Measuring Methods for Suspended Particulate Matter Concentration in Air) Do not install the Switch in a location near a printer or in a location with a lot of...
Page 79
In particular, optical fiber cables should be protected by metal covers, etc., with a bending radius of at least 100 mm in the major axis direction and at least 50 mm in the minor axis direction. In addition, the optical fiber cable that accommodates the required number of optical fiber cores must have a structure that can protect the cable itself from mechanical stress such as repeated bending, tensile tension, compression, and ironing during installation, and stress from the installation environment.
Installation location Use the Switch indoors. Also, make sure that all interface cables to be connected Warning to the Switch are indoor-wired. If connecting a cable that is laid outdoors, ensure that lightning protection measures have been taken before connection. The Switch can be used installed on a table or mounted in a 19-inch cabinet rack.
