General considerations on Installation and
2
Operation
The DuraMON is designed to work at conditions according to IEC 60945. However, keeping the
temperature and vibration level at a minimum will extend the life time of the product. ISIC
recommend operating this product at normal room temperature (20-25 °C), with the lowest level of
vibration and humidity.
Installation of the DuraMON
In order to obtain the best possible operating conditions, please note the following precautions.
-
Room for cooling.
When designing the cabinet/console for the DuraMON, please ensure that air can flow
freely around the cabinet, in order to avoid any unnecessary rise in temperature. If it is
not possible to have an adequate natural airflow, use a fan to force the airflow to be
higher.
-
Mounting positions
To obtain adequate cooling by convection ISIC recommends that the DuraMON is
mounted at least 30 degrees from horizontal. If this is not possible, forced cooling must
be applied directly to the unit in order not to overheat it.
-
Sunlight
If the unit can be exposed to direct sunlight, there is a potential risk that the unit can be
overheated. Please take measures to prevent direct sunlight. Do also consider forced
cooling on the back of the unit.
Operation of the DuraMON
To ensure that colors and luminance on the display are correct in ECDIS applications, do not use
the monitor until the warm-up period has completed.
The warm-up period is as follows:
Day mode
Dusk mode
Night mode
