This topic provides information necessary to install the detector system.
To install the detector:
1. Unpack the shipping carton. Ensure that the package contains a CD-
ROM,
two ferrite rings, two cable glands, and the unit.
2. Determine the optimum location for the detector.
3. Mount the APIC

. Mount the detector to the docking station.
Installation should only be done by trained technicians.
Note:
Each relay card is supplied with a RF suppression ferrite ring. To
ensure
compliance with all relevant EMC requirements, conductors connected to the
fault output (included screen wire) should be wound once around a ferrite.
Installation should be in accordance with applicable installation requirements.
These include:
• NFPA-70, National Electrical Code

Antistatic precautions
This system contains static-sensitive components. Always ground yourself with a
proper wrist strap before handling any circuits. This recommendation must be
followed when removing the equipment case, and during installing and servicing.
Caution:
When handling any electric components or printed circuit boards,
antistatic precautions must be followed. Failure to do so may result in component
damage.
Electro-
static discharge can be reduced by adhering to the following guidelines:
•
Always use conductive or antistatic containers for transportation and storage,
if returning any item.
•
Wear a wrist strap while handling devices and ensure that a good gr
ound is
maintained throughout the installation process.
