The STS should be transported in a container truck with shock protection against moves during
transport. The STS should be belted to the wall of the container.
•
Any special treatment during storage of the STS is not needed.
•
Move the STS in its original package to the final destination room.
•
Check for sufficient floor and elevator loading capacity.
•
Immediately after unpacking carefully check the integrity of the equipment. In case you note
recognizable damage, do not connect any voltage to the STS, do not put the STS into operation, but
contact the nearest Service Centre.
1.6 Installation
The following instructions are provided for the personal safety of operators and also for the protection
of the described product and connected equipment.
•
Observe the prescribed accident prevention and safety rules for the specific application.
•
When installing the STS strictly observe all information on technical data and operating conditions.
Comply with all warnings, and strictly follow the procedures and practices as described in this manual.
•
This STS is intended to be used in a controlled indoor environment and free of conductive
contaminants and protected against animal intrusion.
•
Check for sufficient floor loading capacity.
•
Avoid placing the unit in direct sunlight or near heat sources.
•
It is important that the unit has adequate ventilation. Maintain air movement around and through the
unit. Do not block the air vents.
•
The unit must be placed in a sufficiently ventilated area; the ambient temperature should not exceed
40
°
C (104
°
F).
•
Do not install the STS in an excessively humid environment or near water, relative humidity should not
exceed 90% at 20
°
C (68

•
Avoid spilling liquids or dropping any foreign object into the STS.
•
Emergency stop devices must be provided for all applications. An emergency stop must inhibit any
further uncontrolled operation.
•
The electric connections must be covered.
•
Earth connection must be checked for safe function after assembly.
•
Countermeasures should be taken to avoid accidental turning on of previously switched off systems
through either a control vault or a third party (e.g. key switches).
•
Do not touch electronic components. They may be electrostatic sensitive and are for that reason easily
damaged due to improper handling.
•
To avoid potential health risks, electrical components should not be mechanically damaged or
destroyed.
•
Isolate from mains and battery before installation or dismantling work, as well as for fuse changes or
post installation modifications.
