BEFORE Installation
IMPORTANT: Signal Strength
Units that use mobile networks to communicate with a cloud-based back office contain
a roaming SIM card that connects to the strongest signal available.
It is assumed that a suitable mobile network signal has already been verified by the end
user/installer prior to installation.
x
Units using mobile networks require a suitable signal of
14 CSQ
or better.
x
Units using Wi-Fi connectivity require a strong, stable connection.
x
Rolec cannot be held responsible or accountable in the event that a unit using a
mobile network or Wi-Fi is installed in a location without adequate network signal.
CAUTION: Equipment Damage – Sensitive Equipment
If you will be performing insulation resistance tests on the power supply cables, it is
advised to be done BEFORE connecting the power cable to the chargepoint. The high
voltages applied during the test may damage sensitive components if tested after the
cable is connected.
1. Establish a suitable site location for the unit that is both secure and environmentally
safe.
x
Make sure the mounting location meets current legislation (if applicable).
2. Make sure the electrical power available at the site is sufficient for the desired
power output from the chargepoint.
x
Chargepoint output power is managed by the chargepoint based on
information about the site entered into the Configuration Application after
installation.
x
Maximum
outputs per socket
are 230V/50hz, 7.4kW (32A) for single-phase units
and 400V/50hz, 22kW (32A) for three-phase units.
3. Make sure the chargepoint and any accessories have not been damaged in
transit.
4. Make sure the chargepoint model is correct and matches the order.
NOTE:
Items damaged in transit must first be reported to the courier and then to the
supplier. Where possible, photographic evidence of package and/or item damage
should be provided.
NOTE:
Incorrect or damaged units must NOT be installed. Contact your supplier to
discuss rectification.
5. If required, prepare the site by installing a ground mounting base or by assessing
the ground/surface condition so that the chargepoint can be mounted directly to
the surface.
x
If protective bollards or barriers will be used, consider installing them at the
point of site preparation.
x
Cables requiring entry into the chargepoint enclosure should be positioned so
they will enter from under the bottom of the pedestal.
6. Familiarise yourself with the schematic that is relevant to the product to be installed.
