Safety instructions

Appropriate use
The CMA charge amplifier is to be used exclusively for measurement tasks
and directly related control tasks. Use for any purpose other than the above is
deemed to be inappropriate.
In the interests of safety, the charge amplifier should only be operated as
described in the Operating Manual. It is also essential to comply with the legal
and safety requirements for the application concerned during use. The same
applies to the use of accessories.
Each time, before starting up the equipment, you must first run a project
planning and risk analysis that takes into account all the safety aspects of
automation technology. This particularly concerns personal and machine
protection.
Additional safety precautions must be taken in plants where malfunctions
could cause major damage, loss of data or even personal injury. In the event
of a fault, these precautions establish safe operating conditions.
This can be done, for example, by mechanical interlocking, error signaling,
limit value switches, etc.
The charge amplifier is not a safety element within the meaning of its intended
use. For safe and trouble free operation, this amplifier must not only be
correctly transported, stored, sited and mounted but must also be carefully
operated and maintained.
The device must not be connected directly to the mains supply. The
maximum supply voltage must not exceed 18 to 30 V .

General dangers of failing to follow the safety instructions
The CMA charge amplifier corresponds to the state of the art and is failsafe.
The amplifier can give rise to remaining dangers if it is inappropriately
installed and operated by untrained personnel.
Everyone involved with the installation, commissioning, maintenance or repair
of a charge amplifier must have read and understood the Mounting
Instructions and in particular the technical safety instructions.
Conditions at the place of installation
Protect the charge amplifier from moisture and dampness or weather
conditions such as rain, snow, ice and salt water.
According to EN 61326−1, Sect. 3.6, the connecting cables of the CMA
charge amplifier must be no longer than 30 m (when laid within a building) and
must not leave the building.
