Termination
Unused coaxial connections should be terminated with 75 Ohm
terminating resistors. For DC-supplied connections, DC voltage
decoupling must be used or use 75 Ohm terminating resistors with
integrated DC decoupling.
Attention
This module contains ESD components!
(ESD = Electrostatic Sensitive Device).
An electrostatic discharge is an electrical current pulse, which can
flow through an electrically insulated material, when triggered by a large
voltage difference. To ensure the reliability of ESD components, it is
necessary to consider their most important handling rules:
» Pay attention permanently to potential equalisation (equipotential
bonding)!
» Use wrist straps and approved footwear for personnel grounding!
» Avoid electrostatically chargeable materials such as normal PE, PVC,
polystyrene!
» Avoid electrostatic fields >100 V/cm!
» Use only labeled and defined packing and transportation materials!
Damage caused by faulty connections and/or improper handling are
excluded from any liability.

Select installation site
Plan the installation location so that children cannot play with the
device and its connections. The device should only be installed
on a solid, flat and most of all fire-resistant surface. Observe the
operation position of the devices specified in the operating instructions.
Avoid strong magnetic fields in the surroundings. Too strong a heat effect or
accumulation of heat will have an adverse effect on the durability. Don't
mount directly over or near heating systems, open fire sources or the like,
where the device is exposed to heat radiation or oil vapours. Mount fan-
cooled and passively cooled devices so that the air can be sucked in
unhindered through the lower ventilation slots and heat can escape through
the upper ventilations slots. Ensure free air circulation, ventilation slots must
not be covered. Do not place any objects on the devices. Installation in
recesses, alcoves etc and covering the installation site, e.g. through curtains
is not allowed. To avoid heat build-up, the correct installation position must
be observed and all-round, free ventilation must be ensured in accordance
with the information in the operating instructions! When installing the
cabinet, sufficient air convection must be possible to ensure that the
maximum permissible ambient temperature of the device is maintained.
Moisture
The devices have no protection against water and may therefore
only
be operated and connected in dry rooms. Dripping/splashing water
and
high humidity damage the device. If there is condensation, wait
until the device is completely dry. Select the operating environment
according to the specified IP protection class.
Heat
Housing parts near cooling fins and cooling fins themselves can get
very hot. Therefore, you should not touch these parts.
Mounting and service works
The device may only be installed and operated by qualified persons
(in accordance with EN 62368-1) or by persons who have been
instructed by experts in accordance with the rules of technology.
Maintenance work may only be carried out by qualified service personnel.
Before starting the service work, switch off the operating voltage and secure it
against being switched on again. In the event of service or danger, the mains
plug serves as a disconnect device from the mains voltage and must therefore
be accessible and usable at all times. In order to guarantee interference
immunity, all device covers must be screwed tight again after opening.
Fuses are only to be changed by authorised specialists. Only fuses of the
same type may be used.
Repairs
Repairs may only be carried out by the manufacturer. Improper
repairs can pose significant risks to the user. In the event of
malfunctions, the device must be disconnected from the mains and
authorised specialist personnel must be consulted. If necessary, the device
must be sent to the manufacturer.
Thunderstorm
According to EN 60728 part 1 safety requirements, due to
increased risk of lightning, maintenance and / or installation work
should not be carried out during thunderstorms on the device or the
system. High overvoltages (lightning strikes, overvoltages in the power grid)
can damage insulation that serves to protect against mains voltage.
Ambient temperature
The permissible ambient temperatures specified in the technical
data must be observed for operation and storage, even if the
climatic conditions change due to external influences (solar
radiation etc.). Overheating the device can damage the insulation that
serves to isolate the mains voltage.
Mounting and safety instructions
Please read carefully
Please observe the following safety instructions in order to
prevent any risks for persons and/or damage to the device, as
well as to contribute to environmental protection.
Important instructions
Please read the operating instructions for the device(s) carefully
before putting into operation! The instructions contain important
information on installation, environmental conditions, service and
maintenance. Save the operating instructions for later use. All
operating instructions can be found on our website at:
https://polytron.de/index.php/en/services/operating-manuals
Approved use
Use the device only at the permissible operating locations, under
the permissible environmental conditions and for the purpose
described in the operating instructions.
If there is no information about the intended use (e.g. operating location,
environmental conditions) or if the operating instructions do not contain any
relevant information, you must contact the manufacturer of this device to
ensure that the device can be installed. If you do not receive any information
from the manufacturer, the device must not be put into operation.
Transport
Please check the packaging and the device for damages in
shipment immediately upon receipt. Do not put a damaged device
into operation.
Transporting the device by the power cord is not permitted as this can
damage the power cord or the strain relief. Insulation that serves to protect
against mains voltages can be damaged by excessive loads (e.g. fall, shock,
vibration).
Attention
The rated voltage on the device must correspond with the mains
voltage to be used. When operating devices with protection class I,
connection to power sockets with a protective conductor connection
is mandatory. For devices with a plug connection the socket must be easily
accessible. The instructions for operating the device must be observed.
Grounding and potential equalisation
Please establish grounding and perform potential equalisation
before initial startup. According to the currently valid version of EN
60728-11, coaxial receiving and distribution systems must meet the
safety requirements with regard to earthing, equipotential bonding etc, even
if the device is removed. Otherwise, damage to the product, fire, or other
dangers can occur. In addition, the earth connection on the device can be
used. Other devices within touching distance are to be integrated in the
equipotential bonding. Operation without a protective conductor connection,
device grounding or equipotential bonding is not permitted. If damaged, the
device must be taken out of operation. The electrical system for powering
the device, e.g. house installations must contain protective devices against
excessive currents, earth faults and short circuits. Follow all applicable
national safety regulations and standards.
Connection cables
Always install the connection cables with a loop so that condensed
and/or splashing water cannot run into the device. The coaxial DC
power supply connection cable must have an inner conductor diameter of at
least 1 mm.
