Keep the following installation clearances: 40mm on top, 20mm on the bottom, 5mm on the left and right sides are
recommended when the device is loaded permanently with more than 50% of the rated power. Increase this clearance
to 15mm in case the adjacent device is a heat source (e.g. another DC/DC converter).

WARNING
Risk of electrical shock, fire, personal injury or death.
- Do not use the DC/DC-converter without proper grounding (Protective Earth). Use the terminal on the input block
for earth connection and not one of the screws on the housing.
- Turn power off before working on the device. Protect against inadvertent re-powering.
- Make sure that the wiring is correct by following all local and national codes.
