This section describes the potential sources of danger, and the relevant safety
regulations applicable for the use of the Siemens Building Technologies DF8000
products
.
Please read the following work instructions as well as the previous section "About

Danger potential to individuals
All DF8000 modules are powered with low voltage DC, and there are no specific
safety regulations that apply to these devices.
If DF8000 is installed in cabinets with AC power supply, the required power cable
should be installed following scrupulously the instructions given in the correspond-
ing manual.
Siemens Building Technologies products are developed and produced in compli-
ance with the relevant international and European safety standards. This document
provides warnings and recommendations specific to DF8000 products. Any addi-
tional country-specific or local safety standards and/or regulations that apply con-
cerning project planning, installation, operation, and device disposal must also be
taken into account.
As for any electrical equipment, proper grounding is critical to the safe operation
as it provides a protection against electrical shocks. Before starting any activity,
be sure that the electrical installation complies with relevant regulations and con-
forms to local safety standards.
The DF8000 modules should always be installed in a clean and stable environ-
ment. In particular, keep units and cabinets away from the following:
• High levels of dust
• High temperature and humidity
• Locations where it might became wet
• Vibration and impact
Also, abide by the safety regulations of the connected devices.
• Activate security-, fire- and third party systems or devices only in the presence of
the person responsible.
• Inform people before the testing of alarm devices - consider the possibility of
panic reactions.
• Inform the alarm and fault receiving stations connected to the system before car-
rying out tests.
