4. INSTALLATION
Unpacking
Carefully remove equipment from the carton and inspect the contents.
NOTE
– If any damage has occurred during shipment, notify the local
carrier at once. A report should also be forwarded to Simco-Ion, 2257
North Penn Road, Hatfield PA 19440. See Section 9 (Warranty) for
Return Shipment information.
Determining Power Supply Placement
Place the power supply in a convenient location on or near the machine to allow
the charging bar or applicator’s high voltage cable to reach the output terminals
located on the back of the unit. As a point of reference, the AC Power Cord and
the grounding wire are 7.5 feet in length.
CAUTION – Electrical Shock Hazard
The power supply unit must be placed in a limited access area to protect
operating personnel from accidental electrical shock. Do not install the
power supply in a dirty or damp environment where chemicals or other
corrosive agents are handled.
Mounting the Power Supply
CAUTION – Fire Hazard
Do not install or operate equipment in close proximity to any flammable
solvents or flammable materials.
The unit can be mounted above or below an appropriate mounting surface. To ensure
sufficient airflow, make sure the ventilation openings on the side and underside are
not blocked. Mounting brackets are provided to mount the unit directly onto a
machine, shelf, other surface or stacked on top of each other. Hardware is provided
to mount the mounting brackets to the power supply. There are three mounting
configurations for the Chargemaster VCM (see Figure 1).
