About Setting
Environment
If this system is used in high particle (dusty) environment, store the system
in a dust-proof rack with radiation performance to maintain the temperature
below 40℃ in the rack (JEIDA-63-2000 Class B compliance). Use the following
formula for calculating the system’s calorific power:
Input current(A)*Input voltage(V)=Calorific power(kcal/h)
If you do not know the input current, select a rack up to the calorific power
of 258 (kcal/h).
＊ Note that connection parts and connectors are not described in this manual.
＊ The system height includes 6mm rubber feet.
For replacement filters, use Bridgestone polyurethane-foam “Everlight SF” (Material: HR-13 145 mm x 130 mm
10mm thick)
• Coin type lithium battery is pre-installed in the system, so that when not in use, the internal time clock and calendar
continue to run. The life of the batteries are approximately 5 years or more. Do not attempt to replace the batteries
yourself. For replacement, please contact our sales office or agent. There will be a charge for the service.
• Due to the constant frequency of use and degradation of the unit’s floor mounted fittings, FV3000 FAST approved
parts are recommended for replacement. Please refer to “3.2 Fastening Mounting Fittings”. There will be a charge
for replacing the parts. Note that on-site service is not provided.
