The various degrees of protection of the device can only be guaranteed if the following
requirements are met:
● To achieve the degree of protection specified in the technical specifications: Material
thickness at the mounting cut-out: 2 mm to 6 mm
● Permitted deviation from plane at the mounting cutout: ≤ 0.5 mm
This condition must also be met for the installed device.
