If the installation environment requires Overvoltage
Category III (OVCIII), the input side of the external
power supply must be protected by means of
protective circuitry (e.g. a varistor) that conforms to
locally applicable regulations.
Installation at high altitude
Sensor supply cables that are installed in electrical
installations at a height of over 6,600 ft. (2,000 m) or
must conform to Overvoltage Category III (OVCIII)
due to their installation location must additionally be
insulated using heat-shrink tubing or suitable
insulation tubing with a dielectric strength of
508 V/mil (20 kV/mm) and minimum wall thickness
of 0.016 in. (0.4 mm) along the entire length of cable
between the sensor output (housing) and the input
terminal on the energy manager.
