ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY 

This static transfer switch (STS) conforms to the class C2 specifications (in accordance with the provisions laid 
down by the EN62040-2 standard: STS – EMC requirement). In the home environment ,it may cause radio 
interference. The user may have to take supplementary measures. 
This product is designed for professional use in industrial and commercial environments . Connections to the 
RS232 connectors should be made with the cables provided or ,in any case, with shielded cables less than 3 
meters long. 

INSTALLATION ENVIRONMENT 

When choosing the site in which to install the STS , the following points should be taken into consideration : 

  Avoid dusty environments 

  Check that the floor is level and capable of withstanding the weight of the STS 

  Avoid cramped environments that could impede the normal maintenance activities 

  The relative humidity should not exceed 90%, non-condensing. 

  Check that the ambient temperature, with the STS running, remains between 0 and 40 C 

  Avoid installing the equipment in places exposed to the direct sunlight and hot air. 

REMOVING THE STS FROM PALLET 

The STS is packed and enclosed in a structural cardboard carton to protect it from damage. 

1. 

Inspect  for  damage  that  may  have  occurred  during  the  shipment  If  any  damage  is  noted,  call  the  shipper 
immediately and retain the shipping carton and the STS. 

2. 

Carefully open the carton and take the STS out. 

Retain the carton and packing material for possible future use
