12.2 APPROVALS AND CONFORMITY
The standards are subject to an adaptation and renumbering process
which will continue for years as a result of European harmonization and
international alignment. That is why in the detail listings norms to date
are stated even if their expiry date has already been decided.
There is no product norm for thyristor power controllers so that a
sensible norm framework must be created from the corresponding fun-
damental norms in order to facilitate safe application and comparison
possibilities.
Thyristor power controllers are not devices to be used for disconnec-
ting purposes in the sense of DIN EN 50110-1 and as a result may only
be operated in connection with an appropriate upstream mains discon-
necting device (e.g. breaker, observe VDE 0105 T1).
The Thyro-AX has the following approvals and conformities:
• Quality standard in accordance with EN ISO 9001
• Approval in accordance with UL 508, File No. E 135074 Investigated
under consideration of the Canadian National Standard C22.2 No.
14-95
• UL Markings:
- Tightening torque (in pound inches) see Chapter 12.1. (only for
devices rated 16A or 30A)
- Wiring details: „Use 60/75°C wires" and specified tightening
torque (pound inches) (only for devices rated 45A, 60A or 100A)
- „Max. surrounding air temperature 40°C"
- Suitable For Use On A Circuit Capable Of Delivering Not More
Than 100kA rms Symmetrical Amperes, xxx Volts Maximum, When
Protected by RK5 Class Fuses"
NOTE:
xxx = max. allowable voltage depending upon rating of the device
- „Branch circuit protection must be provided and sized according
National Electrical Code and any additional local codes"
• CE conformity
- Low voltage directive 2006/95/EEC; EMC directive 2004/108/EEC
