DIN STANDARDS
1. Mounting distance and dimensions meet
DIN43694.
2. Protective construction meets IEC IP65,
but insulation distance and terminal
construction do not meet VDE standards.
3. Operating position of AZ5501 and AZ5502
meet DIN43694.
4. There are no DIN standards specified for
the operating position of AZ5506 and
AZ5528. Only mounting distance and
dimensions meet DIN43694.
