CHAPTER 6: INSTALLATION AND FIRST-TIME USE
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
6.1
Before proceeding with installation make sure that all relevant safety conditions prevail and follow
the instructions below carefully.
So as to provide greater clarity the numbers given in the diagrams in this chapter
correspond exactly to the numbering in the Components Table (Ch. 3).
PERMITTED AMBIENT CONDITIONS
6.2
Unless stated otherwise at the time of order the equipment will be configured to operate properly
under the following ambient conditions:
Place of Use
Altitude
Working temperature
Humidity
Ambient conditions other than those listed above may cause malfunctions or sudden breakdowns.
Lighting in the installation area must be sufficient to provide good visibility at every single point on
the equipment.
More specifically, luminosity must not be less than 200 lux, lighting must be as uniform as possible
and there must be no reflected light as this could dazzle the operator.
The equipment must not be used in workplaces having an atmosphere which is
explosive and/or at risk of fire as it has not been designed for use in such areas.
Nevertheless, should a fire accidentally break out follow the procedure described in
paragraph 2.4.
Work area lighting is an important factor in both personnel safety and the ultimate
quality of the work being done. In Italy lighting must comply with a Ministerial
Decree Law that clearly defines minimum lighting requirements. In other countries
lighting requirements form part of the accident prevention and workplace
hygiene standards.
REQUIRED WORK SPACE
6.3
Choosing a good workplace with an appropriate amount of space available for equipment installation
is an essential factor in personnel safety, the quality of the work and proper maintenance.
This zone must not only be spacious enough to allow for optimum equipment operation but must
also be well illuminated, aired, not dusty and not exposed to direct sunlight. Note also that the unit
must be positioned so the connection plug can be handled/manipulated with ease.
