Safety Notices:

Exposure to RF energy is an important safety consideration. The FCC has adopted a safety standard for human exposure

to radio frequency electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated equipment as a result of its actions in Docket 93-62

and OET Bulletin 65 Edition 97-01.

UL Notice:

1. The Wireless Ethernet module is to be installed by trained personnel / licensed electricians only and installation

must be carried out in accordance with the instructions listed in the Installation Guide and applicable local

regulatory codes.

2. The units are intended for Restricted Access Locations.

3. The Wireless Ethernet module is intended to be installed in a final enclosure, rated IP54, before use outdoors.

4. The Equipment shall be powered using an external Listed Power Supply with LPS outputs or a Class 2 Power

Supply.

5. The Wireless Ethernet module must be properly grounded for surge protection before use.

6. If installed in a hazardous environment coaxial cable shall be installed in a metallic conduit

Important Notice:

ELPRO products are designed to be used in industrial environments, by experienced industrial engineering personnel with

adequate knowledge of safety design considerations.

ELPRO radio products are used on unprotected license-free radio bands with radio noise and interference. The products

are designed to operate in the presence of noise and interference, however in an extreme case, radio noise and

interference could cause product operation delays or operation failure. Like all industrial electronic products, ELPRO

products can fail in a variety of modes due to misuse, age, or malfunction. We recommend that users and designers

design systems using design techniques intended to prevent personal injury or damage during product operation, and

provide failure tolerant systems to prevent personal injury or damage in the event of product failure. Designers must warn

users of the equipment or systems if adequate protection against failure has not been included in the system design.

Designers must include this Important Notice in operating procedures and system manuals.

These products should not be used in non-industrial applications, or life-support systems, without consulting ELPRO first.

1. A radio license is not required in some countries, provided the module is installed using the aerial and equipment

configuration described in the 450U-E Installation Guide. Check with your local distributor for further information

on regulations.

2. Operation is authorized by the radio frequency regulatory authority in your country on a non-protection basis.

Although all care is taken in the design of these units, there is no responsibility taken for sources of external

interference. Systems should be designed to be tolerant of these operational delays.

3. To avoid the risk of electrocution, the aerial, aerial cable, serial cables and all terminals of the 450U-E module

should be electrically protected. To provide maximum surge and lightning protection, the module should be

connected to a suitable earth and the aerial, aerial cable, serial cables and the module should be installed as

recommended in the Installation Guide.

4. To avoid accidents during maintenance or adjustment of remotely controlled equipment, all equipment should be

first disconnected from the 450U-E module during these adjustments. Equipment should carry clear markings to
