3.7.1 Siting considerations
When choosing a location for the Touchpoint Pro Battery Box, consider the following:
•
The Touchpoint Pro Battery Box is specified for operation in ambient temperatures from -20°C to +45°C.
Operation of the unit outside of this temperature range invalidates the warranty and certification.
•
The Touchpoint Pro Battery Box must be installed in a Pollution Degree 2 environment as defined by IEC
61010-1 (CSA-C22.2 No 61010, ANSI/ISA 61010-1(82.02.01)), i.e. an environment such as an office or
control room.
•
The Touchpoint Pro Battery Box is designed for permanent connection to the Touchpoint Pro System
UPS for continuous operation. The maximum cable length between the Touchpoint Pro Battery Box and
the Touchpoint Pro System UPS is 5 m. Wire size must be 4 mm
2
.
•
The Touchpoint Pro Battery Box should be installed only on a vertical surface avoiding sloping surfaces.
Only use the mounting brackets supplied with the apparatus, and follow installation instructions.
•
The mounting surface should be flat, and strong enough to bear the weight of the Touchpoint Pro
system. Drywall / plasterboard, dry lined or timber framed type construction is not considered to be a
suitable structural material, unless strengthened with additional supports or braces and/or special
fixings. Take account of the contents and external cabling in addition to the weight of the unit itself.
•
The Touchpoint Pro Battery Box should have a clearance of 200 mm to either side, and there should be
no heat sources below or adjacent to the unit.
•
Ensure access to disconnecting device (switch inside the enclosure)
