6.5 Earthing and Lightning Surge Protection
Warning!
Proper earthing and adequate protection against lightning surges are vital in order to
prevent device damage.
Earthing and lightning surge protection are interconnected. The following categories apply here:
•
Electrical earthing:
This describes an earthing system that conducts any surge current from the device’s
housing or other parts to the equipotential bonding of the building.
•
HF earthing:
This describes an earthing system where HF power is diverted to earth. HF earthing
systems include shielding that contains or lessens the leakage of HF radiation.
•
Lightning protection:
Proper lightning protection is crucial for ensuring the safe and reliable operation of a
communications system. This is closely linked to the building’s equipotential bonding.
The User Manual at hand does not contain in-depth recommendations and guidelines for the
earthing and lightning protection measures required for communications systems. Such
information can be obtained separately from a large number of expert sources. If you have any
doubts regarding the specific requirements, make sure to inform yourself accordingly.
6.6 Maintenance Schedule
The I.SITE III is based on the latest technological advances and features a software-based
controller. Therefore, it requires only very minor regular maintenance.
When maintenance is carried out, this should include the following tasks:
•
Wipe down the device with a soft cloth.
•
Check all functions.
•
Check the battery condition.
•
Check all electrical connections.
Note:
We recommend replacing the battery at least once every 3-4 years.
