Frequently asked questions

What safety precautions must be taken before installing the converter?

Ensure the unit is undamaged, all covers and shields are in place, power is OFF, the grounding terminal is connected, and the rated voltage matches the AC source. Wiring should be performed by a qualified electrician.

How does the converter protect against overcurrent?

An instantaneous overcurrent protection trips when the input current reaches about 200 % of the rated value, and a fuse trips if an open‑circuit condition occurs.

What are the allowed environmental operating conditions?

The converter can be used indoors with ambient temperatures from –10 °C to +45 °C, humidity up to 90 % RH (no condensation), and vibration up to 1 G below 20 Hz.
