1.2 Health and Safety Warnings
1. This unit contains dangerous voltages. Loss of life, severe personal injury or
property damage can be the result if the instructions contained in this manual are
not followed.
2. Ground the unit before connecting power supply. A grounding bolt is provided on
the cabinet to connect the ground-bonding cable.
3. Although the Remote Unit is internally protected against over-voltage, it is
strongly recommended to earth the antenna cables close to the antenna
connectors of the Remote Unit for protection against atmospheric discharge. In
areas with strong lightning it is highly recommended to insert additional lightning
protection.
4. If the mains connector of the Remote Unit is not easily accessible, a disconnect
device in the mains circuit must be provided within easy reach.
5. Before connecting or disconnecting the mains connector at the Remote Unit,
ensure that mains supply is disconnected.
6. Make sure that an appropriate circuit breaker and an over-current limiting device
are connected between mains and Remote Unit.
7. A connection of mains supply to a power socket requires the power socket to be
nearby the Remote Unit.
8. Incorrectly wired connections can destroy electrical and electronic components.
9. To avoid corrosion at the connectors caused by electrochemical processes, the
material of the cable connectors must not cause a higher potential difference than
0.6 V (see electrochemical contact series).
10. Use an appropriate torque wrench for the coupling torque (25 N-m / 19 ft lb) of 7-
16 DIN connectors with 1-1/4 in opening to tighten the 7/16-type antenna
connectors. For example, use torque wrench of item no. 244377 available from
the
Andrew
e-catalog
. Do NOT use your hands or any other tool (e.g. a pair of
pliers)! This might cause damage to the connector and lead to a malfunction of
the Remote Unit.
11. Use a voltage limiting device for unstabilized electric networks that frequently
generate spikes.
12. The unit complies with the surge requirement according to EN 61000-4-5 (fine
protection); however, it is recommended to install an additional medium (via local
supply connection) and/or coarse protection (external surge protection),
depending on the individual application, in order to avoid damage caused by
overcurrent.
