General Installation Recommendations
Installation and mounting
1. Most of our units are intended for various methods of installation or mounting (panel mounting, bracket mounting,
ceiling/wall mounting etc.); for details, please see the relevant mechanical drawings.
2. Adequate ventilation is a necessary prerequisite for the life of the unit. The ventilation apertures (red/gray area
shown in the illustration to the right) must definitely be kept clear.
The Series 2 units was designed to be fan less, and covering up the ventilation
apertures (shown in closeup chassis below) is not permissable, doing so can
lead to overheating and could damage the unit.
Suggested and a safe minimum air distance between the ventilation
apertures and other panels near the unit should be 5cm. However, this
can be lower or higher depending on the installation space and design.
If in question, please contact your local installation technican or
qualified personnell for advise!
3. Generally, do not install the unit in a horizontal position (laying down),
as this will cause heat to build up inside the display which will damage the
LCD Panel. To prevent this problem we recommend installing the unit in a
vertical position (±40 degrees) to improve the airflow through the unit.
4. To further improve the cooling of the unit we recommend installing Cooling
Fans underneath blowing upwards going past the ventilation apertures.
This may be required in high temperature applications and also when there
is reason to expect temperature problems due to non-optimal way of
mounting.
5. Exposure to extreme direct sunlight condition over longer periods can
cause a considerable increase in the temperature of the unit, and might
under certain circumstances lead to overtemperature. This point should already be taken into consideration when
the bridge equipment is being planned (sun shades, distance from the windows, ventilation, etc.)
6.
Space necessary for ventilation, for cable inlets, for the operating procedures and for maintenance, must be
provided.
7. Information about necessary pull-relievers for cables is given in the installation drawings. Attention must be paid to
this information so that cable breaks will not occur, e.g. during service work.
8. Do not paint the product. The surface treatment influences on the excess heat transfer. Painting, labels or other
surface treatments that differ from the factory default, might cause overheating.
