Caution, risk of electrical shock When operating the transducer, certain parts of the module can carry hazardous voltage (eg. primary busbar, power supply). Ignoring this warning can lead to injury and/or cause serious damage. This transducer is a built-in device, whose conducting parts must be inaccessible after installation. A protective housing or additional shield could be used. Main supply must be able to be disconnected. 070424/9 Page 2/3 LEM reserves the right to carry out modifications on its transducers, in order to improve them, without previous notice.
