ATTENTION!
Installation and mounting
1. Most of our products are intended for various methods of installation or mounting (panel mounting, bracket
mounting, ceiling/wall, console mounting etc.); for details, please see the relevant mechanical drawings.
2. Adequate ventilation is a necessary prerequisite for the life of the product. The air inlet and outlet openings must
definitely be kept clear; coverings which restrict ventilation are not permissible.
3. Generally, do not install the unit in a horizontal position (laying down), as this will cause heat to build up inside the
unit which will damage the LCD Panel. To prevent this problem we recommend installing the unit in a vertical
position (±30 degrees) to improve the airflow through the unit.
4. To further improve the thermal situation we recommend to use forced air passing by the product. In some cases,
convection based cooling can create “heat zones” around the product. This may be required in high temperature
applications and also when there is reason to expect temperature problems due to non-optimal way of mounting.
5. Exposure to extreme direct sunlight can cause a considerable increase in the temperature of the unit, and might
under certain circumstances lead to overtemperature. This point should already be taken into consideration when
the bridge equipment is being planned (sun shades, distance from the windows, ventilation, etc.)
6. Space necessary for ventilation, for cable inlets, for the operating procedures and for maintenance, must be
provided.
