Installation
Installation and mounting
1. Most of our products 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 for panel cutout
dimensions and product dimensions. For Panel/console installations, please use screws as specified in the
Contents of Package chapter.
2. Adequate ventilation is a necessary prerequisite for the life of the product. 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
(±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 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.
5. 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.)
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/re-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
9. Expose to heavy vibration and acoustic noise might under certain circumstances affect functionality and expected
lifetime. This must be considered during system assembly and installation. Mounting position must carefully be
selected to avoid any exposure of amplified vibration.
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.
