Installation And Mounting Of Displays; Brightness Knob Precaution - Hatteland JH 19T01 MIL User Manual

General Installation Recommendations

Installation and mounting of displays

1. Most of our displays 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 display. The air inlet and outlet
openings must definitely be kept clear; coverings which restrict ventilation are not permissible.
3. 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 (±30 degrees) to improve the airflow through the unit.
4. Exposure to direct sunlight 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.)
5. Space necessary for ventilation, cable inlets, the operating procedures and maintenance,
must be provided.
6. To further improve the cooling of the unit we recommend installing Cooling Fans underneath
blowing upwards into the unit air inlet. 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(Ref.2-5).
7. If the push buttons of the display are not illuminated, an external, dimmable illumination
(IEC 60945, 6.5.c, e.g. Goose neck light is required for navigational use.
8. 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.

Brightness knob precaution

Please be aware of the risk of breaking or bending the brightness knob. The brightness knob
should be free of any obstruction.
