7  Installation

Prior to installation, the following documents should be to hand:

 

• Product-specific data sheet (contains the permissible technical data, 

main dimensions and circuit diagrams of standard versions), see Table 1 
"Required and supplementary documentation" on pa
ge 4.

7.1  Unpacking

NOTICE! 

Danger due to electrostatic discharge!

When unpacking the control unit, there is a danger of damage to the electronic 
components of the control unit due to electrostatic discharge.

 

▶ During unpacking, the control unit is to be protected against electrostatic 

discharge.

 

▶ Remove the packaging from the control unit.

 

▶ Check the control unit for transport damage and completeness, see chapter 4 

"Scope of delivery" on page 11.

 

▶ Dispose of the packaging in accordance with the regulations in your country.

7.2  Installation conditions

 

▶ Do not install the control unit near parts which generate considerable heat 

(e.g. exhaust).

 

▶ Radio equipment and mobile telephones must not be used in the driver's cab 

without a suitable antenna or near the control electronics.

 

▶ A sufficiently large distance to radio transmission systems must be maintained.

 

▶ All connectors must be unplugged from the electronics during electrical welding 

or painting operations.

 

▶ Cables/wires must be sealed individually to prevent water from entering the 

control unit.

 

▶ The control unit must not be electrostatically charged, e.g. during painting.

 

▶ The control unit will heat up beyond normal ambient temperature during 

operation. Protect the control unit from being touched in order to avoid hazards 
caused by high temperatures.

 

▶ Install the control unit in such a way that the electrical plug is not facing upwards. 

This ensures that any condensation water is drained.

 

▶ Standing and permanently running water are not permitted anywhere near the 

circumferential groove (lid/base connector) or the pressure equalizing element 
(DAE).

 

▶ The control unit must be fastened with metal screws in order to establish a good 

thermal connection between the housing and the cooling surface (heat sink).
