Redundancy Module QUINT-DIODE/40
4. Safety Notes and Warning Instructions
To ensure that the device can be operated safely
and all functions can be used, please read these
instructions carefully.
Installation and startup
must only be carried out by
qualied personnel. The relevant country-specic
regulations (e.g., VDE, DIN) must also be observed.
Before startup it is particularly important to ensure
that:
All supply lines have sufcient fuse protection and
are the correct size.
All output cables are the correct size for the
maximum device output current or have separate
fuse protection.
Sufcient convection is ensured.
•To protect the device, the input current of 56 A must
not be exceeded. This is ensured if the supply is
provided from an automatic current limiting source
(e.g., QUINT POWER) or if a suitable fuse is
connected.
To meet directive 94/9/EU (ATEX), the following
safety notes must be observed:
The QUINT-DIODE/40 redundancy module
corresponds to standard EN 50 021.
This redundancy module may be installed within a
potentially explosive area, in which Category 3
equipment is required.
When working on the redundancy module, observe
the national safety rules and regulations for the
prevention of accidents.
The module must only be installed and operated by
qualied personnel.
Installation should be carried out following the
instructions given in this data sheet.
The QUINT-DIODE/40 redundancy module should
be installed in the control cabinet so that IP54
protection according to EN 60 529 or higher is
ensured.
If dust is present, the device must be installed in
suitable housing. The device must not be subject to
mechanical strain or thermal load, which exceed the
limits described in this data sheet.
•To ensure sufcient convection, the following
minimum spacing should be provided between other
modules: 5 cm (1.969 in.) for vertical installation and
2 cm (0.787 in.) for horizontal installation.
During operation only devices, which are suitable for
operation in potentially explosive areas of zone 2,
can be connected to the redundancy module.
The redundancy module does not require
maintenance, is closed ex works, and should not be
opened. Repairs can only be carried out by the
manufacturer.
The safety data and features provided according to
the valid conformance mark are listed after the
technical data.

5.1. Mounting
The redundancy module can be snapped onto all
DIN rails according to EN 50 022-35. The module can
be mounted horizontally (input terminal blocks facing
upwards or downwards) or vertically on the DIN rail.
Installation Dimensions
Mounting:
Place the module with the DIN rail guideway on the
top edge
of the DIN rail and then snap it
downwards
.
Removal:
Release the snap-on catch using a screwdriver and
then detach the module from the
bottom edge
of the
DIN rail.
Connection Cable:
The following cable cross sections can be connected:
For reliable and safe-to-touch
connection:
Strip 10 mm (0.39 in.)
from the connector ends.
To maintain UL approvals, use copper cables, which
are designed for operating temperatures of at least
75°C (167˚F).

6.1 Input
The maximum permissible current depends on the
cross section of the connected cables and the ambient
temperature (see Table 1).
Only one redundancy module is required to decouple
two power supplies that are connected in parallel (A
and B) with nominal currents up to 20 A. The individual
modules are wired together as shown in Figure 7.
One redundancy module per power supply is
required to decouple power supplies with nominal
currents from 20 A to 40 A. Both inputs "1" and "2" of
the redundancy module must be connected to the
power supply via two cables as shown in Figure 8. This
is required as the maximum current carrying capacity
of 30 A per input must not be exceeded. For connecting
the redundancy module to the power supply, we
recommend using two cables of the same length and
with identical cross sections.
6.2 Output
During operation only devices, which are suitable for
operation in potentially explosive areas of Zone 2, can
be connected to the output of the redundancy module
in Zone 2.
The plus pole of the device is wired to the output of
the redundancy module as shown in Figure 7/8.
6.3 Temperature Response
In the
horizontal mounting position
(input terminal
blocks facing upwards or downwards), the redundancy
module can lead maximum continuous load currents of
2 x 27 A or 1 x 54 A at ambient temperatures of up to
40°C (104˚F). The permissible current carrying
capacity reduces according to the ambient
temperature as shown in Figure 9, curve for a cable
cross section of 10 mm
2
(8 AWG).
At an ambient temperature of 60°C (140˚F), the
module can lead maximum continuous load currents of
2 x 21 A or 1 x 43 A.
In the
vertical mounting position
, the redundancy
module can lead maximum continuous load currents of
2 x 27 A or 1 x 54 A at ambient temperatures of up to
30°C (86˚F). The permissible current carrying capacity
reduces according to the ambient temperature as
shown in Figure 9, curve for a cable cross section of
10 mm
2
(8 AWG).
At an ambient temperature of 60°C (140˚F), the
module can lead maximum continuous load currents of
2 x 20 A or 1 x 40 A.
