Intended use
Phase inverters are built for professional use. The installation and the fixed connection to the mains
supply should be carried out only by trained and qualified experts.
Any use going beyond the intended use is considered to be improper. The manufacturer is not liable
for damages resulting from improper use. Any such risk shall be borne solely by the user.
In case of unauthorised modifications or conversions, the CE conformity becomes null and void, and
thus, also all claims for warranty. Modifications may lead to risks for life and limb as well as damage
to the plugs and sockets or loads connected.
Factory-fitted labels and markings on the distributors should not be removed, modified or blurred.
Protect against foreign bodies and impact of weather
The product meets either the protection degree IP44, IP54 or IP67 in accordance with DIN EN 60529
(VDE 0470-1), depending on the respective design. Each of these mean:
– Protection degree IP44:
– Protected against solid bodies with a diameter beyond 1.0 mm, e.g. a wire
– Protection against water sprayed from all sides
– Protection degree IP67:
– Dust-proof
– Complete protection against contact
– Protection against temporary immersion.
Environment
The following operating conditions apply for the safe operation of the product:
Size Value
Temperature –25 °C … +40 °C
Humidity 10 %rH … 90 %rH

Packaging, transport and storage
Packaging
Packaging materials are valuable raw materials and can be reused. The packaging materials should
therefore be brought to an appropriate recycling facility. If this is not possible, dispose of the packag-
ing materials according to the locally applicable regulations.
Transport
Check the delivery for completeness and integrity. If you identify transit damage or if the delivery is in-
complete, notify your dealer or supplier immediately.
Storage
The product must be stored in clean condition and protected from dust and humidity. The original
packaging is best suited for this purpose.

Assembly and disassembly
DANGER
Danger to life by electrical voltage
The supply cable may carry high electrical voltage that is fatal. Pay attention to the five safety rules of
electricity:
1. De-energise
2. Secure the supply from being switched on again
3. Ensure the de-energised condition
4. Connect to earth and short circuit
5. Cover or cordon off adjacent live parts
Connecting a conductor to a socket with multi-grip cable gland
QUICK-CONNECT connection
Proceed as follows:
1. Make sure that the cable is de-energised.
2. Depending on the design:
Open the rotary lock or loosen the screws in order to separate the front part from the housing.
3. Push the cable about 50 cm wide through the cable gland and housing.
4. Strip the cable to the required length (16A designs: 60 mm; 32 A designs: 70 mm).
5. Remove the insulation from the individual conductors (16 A designs: 9 mm; 32 A designs:
12 mm). Twist the multi-strand copper conductors slightly by hand. Conductor end sleeves are
not necessary but may be used.
6. The terminals are open at the time of delivery. Guide the bare individual conductors into the
opening near the contact slide (4) and press the contact slide (5) to the right (in the direction
of the arrow). The contact slide get latched and fixes the individual conductor. Take care to en-
sure that only the bare individual conductor (without insulation) is clamped. Pay attention to
the marking of the terminals and ensure that the assignment of the individual conductors to
the terminals is correct.
