are persons familiar with the insallation, assembly, commisioning and operation of
the product and who have the appropriate qualifications for their activities such as:
•

CAUTION
Modules which are sensitive to electrostatic charge may be destroyed by voltages
which are far below the human level of perception. These voltages occur already
when you touch a component or electrical connections of a module without first
discharging yourself electrostatically. The damage incurred by a module as a
result of an overvoltage is not usually immediately perceptible but only becomes
noticeable after a long time in operation. Therefore, a suitable equipotential bond-
ing must be guaranteed when repairing the device.
