Note

Danger of damage to the unit!

During transport in cold conditions, or if the unit is subjected to extreme temperature swings, condensation on and inside the unit must be avoided.
Prior to operation, the unit must be allowed to slowly adjust to room temperature. Should condensation occur, a delay time of approximately 12 hours must be allowed before the unit is switched on.

Installation

The devices are designed for installation in control cabinets.  You will find installation instructions in the chapter mechanical mounting.

Shipping and relocation

Despite the robust design of the unit, the components are sensitive to strong vibrations and impacts. During transport, your computer should therefore be protected from excessive mechanical stress. Therefore, please use the original packaging.
