## **Conditions of acceptability** 

When installed in the end-use equipment, consideration shall be given to the following: 

- _1 -  These devices must be mounted in a suitable end-use enclosure._ 

- _2 -  The terminals have not been evaluated for field wiring._ 

- _3 -  The LTS, LTSR, LTSP Series are intended to be mounted on the printed wiring board of the end-use equipment (with a minimum CTI of 100)._ 

- _4 -  The LTS, LTSR, LTSP Series shall be used in a pollution degree 2 environment._ 

- _5 -  Low voltage circuits are intended to be powered by a circuit derived from an isolating source (such as a transformer, optical isolator, limiting impedance or electro-mechanical relay) and having no direct connection back to the primary circuit (other than through the grounding means)._ 

- _6 -  The LTS, LTSR, LTSP Series: based on results of temperature tests, in the end-use application, a maximum of 100°C cannot be exceeded at soldering point between primary coil pin and soldering point or on primary bus bar (corrected to the appropriate evaluated max, surrounding air)._ 

- _7 -  For LTS, LTSR, LTSP Series, the secondary sensing circuit was evaluated as the circuit intended to be supplied from a Limited Voltage/Current circuit defined in UL 508 standard._ 

## **Marking** 

Only those products bearing the UL or UR Mark should be considered to be Listed or Recognized and covered under UL’s FollowUp Service. Always look for the Mark on the product.

## **Safety** 

This transducer must be used in limited-energy secondary circuits according to IEC 61010-1. 

This transducer must be used in electric/electronic equipment with respect to applicable standards and safety requirements in accordance with the manufacturer’s operating instructions. 

Caution, risk of electrical shock 

When operating the transducer, certain parts of the module can carry hazardous voltage (e.g. primary busbar, power supply). Ignoring this warning can lead to injury and/or cause serious damage. 

This transducer is a build-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.
