Misc. on the DESKLINE®DL1A system
This system is a DESKLINE system developed for desks and for indoor use in offices. Do not use it in industrial kitchens or in
other enviroments that have to be cleaned with aggressive detergents.
Do not bolt the legs to the floor so that free movement is prevented. This could cause serious damage to the legs in fault
situations.
Warranty
This DESKLINE product is subject to warranty pursuant to the terms of LINAK DESKLINE Warranty Paper, available on the LINAK
website www.linak.com/warranty.
Maintenance
Clean dust and dirt on the outside of the system at appropriate intervals and inspect them for damage and breaks.
Inspect the connections, cables, and plugs and check for correct functioning as well as fixing points.
Service of double-insulated products:
Class II
A Class II or double insulated electrical appliance is one which has been designed in such a way that it does not require a
safety connection to electrical earth (US: ground).
The basic requirement is that no single failure can result in dangerous voltage becoming exposed so that it might cause an
electric shock and that this is achieved without relying on an earthed metal casing. This is usually achieved at least in part by
having two layers of insulating material surrounding live parts or by using reinforced insulation.
There is no earthing/grounding means provided on the product, and no earthing/grounding means is to be added to the
product.
In Europe, a double insulated appliance must be labelled “Class II”, “double insulated” or bear the double insulation symbol
(a square inside another square).
Servicing a double-insulated product requires extreme care and knowledge of the system, and is to be done only by qualified
service personnel. Replacement parts for a double-insulated product must be identical to the parts they replace.
The cleaners and disinfectants must not be highly alkaline or acidic (pH value 6-8).

Description of the DESKLINE®DL1A system
Each DESKLINE®DL1A actuator is equipped with a motor and parallel/memory drive is ensured by means of software in
the control box that also takes account of oblique load on the desk. Soft start and stop are also part of this software, which
ensures a soft start and stop when adjusting the desk.
The DESKLINE®DL1A system range contains the following products:
• 1 control box CBD6S 200 W or CBD6S 300 W (SMPS - Switch Mode Power Supply)
• 1 single DL1A or 2, 3, or 4 parallel
• 1 exchangeable mains cable
• 1, 2, 3, or 4 motor cables
• DP1U/DPF1M/DPG1M/DPG1B (if memory function is required)
DP1C/WDPL/DPT/DPF1C/DPG1C (if memory function and display is required)
or DPA/DPB/DP1K/DP1V/DPF1K/DPG1K (if only up/down is required.)
Options:
• Possibility of running extra actuators (LA31 with hall)
Application of the DESKLINE®DL1A system:
Irrespective of the load, the duty cycle 10% ~ 6 min./ hour or max. 2 min. at continuous use stated in the data sheets,
must NOT be exceeded as this will result in a superheating of the motor, the brake and the spindle nut. Exceeding the duty
cycle will result in a dramatic reduction of the life of the system.

DL1
motor housing
Installation for the DL1A system
The aluminium motor housing is supplied with six M6 threaded holes for mounting on the desk frame.
1. Mount the motor housing on the top frame using six M6 screws with the following specifications:
Quality: Min. grade 8.8
Length: Max. 15 mm (plus top frame thickness). The screw must not go further than max. 15 mm into the motor housing
2. Fasten the screws thoroughly (torque: max. 7.5 Nm).
Always use six M6 screws for mounting the motor housing on the top frame
The mounting screws must not go further than max. 15 mm into the motor housing
Sufficient stability of the desk is only obtained if all six M6 screws are used for mounting the motor housing on the top
frame.
LINAK recommends using the DESKLINE®DL1A system in push applications with the motor housing mounted upwards.

Page 12 of 23
To avoid damage of the lifting unit there must be at least 1 mm space between the ends of the two M8 screws for
the mounting bracket and the lifting unit surface. Screws that are too long will come into contact with the inner parts.
This will result in an irregular operation or even damage the lifting unit.
Requirement: Min. 1 mm space between ends of screws and lifting unit surface

Mounting the tabletop
The sound from the lifting column spreads as vibrations to the tabletop which amplifies the sound.
This can, however, be reduced..
1. Place vibration/shock-absorbing material between tabletop and top frame.
Assembled desk

Page 13 of 23
Placing the monitor
Placement of a monitor directly above the motor housing may cause malfunction of the monitor. Magnets inside the motor
may interrupt the picture on the monitor depending on the distance and type of monitor. If this is the case, the problem may
be solved by placing an iron plate/tube or another magnetic material, somewhat larger than the motor housing, between the
motor and the tabletop.
Recommended placement of an iron plate/tube or another magnetic material

Page 14 of 23
Installation of CBD6S (SMPS)
Do not pack the CBD6S in heat insulating material.
Place the CBD6S so it can emit heat through its surface to the surroundings.
Mounting the CBD6S
1. Plug the mains cable into the CBD6S.
2. Place the mains cable in the groove for cable relief.
3. If needed, place the other cables in the grooves to optimise the desk design and manage the system cables.
4. Mount the CBD6S using two screws with a head diameter of 10 mm (8 to 10 mm can be used).
5. Fasten the mounting screws (max. torque 1 Nm).
Notes:
• If the control box is mounted in a top frame bar with the width of the motor housing, it can be mounted with one screw only
• The surface to which the control box is mounted should have an evenness better than ±0.5 mm
• The control box can also be mounted using one or two M6 nuts and screw counterparts, see Dimensional drawings
• The mains plug must be accessible when the CBD6S is mounted so that the supply to the CBD6S can be disconnected
if replacement is required.
For mounting and operation of the desk panel, please see the separate user manual for desk panels.

Electric connection of the DL1A system
The control box must only be connected to the voltage stated on the label.
It is important to ensure that the motor cables are fixed, but not tightened, near the control box and near the columns.
Fix the cable to the tabletop using a clip observing the 30 mm minimum bending radius (R).
Connecting the system
1. Connect the first DL/DB to socket 1 next to port A2 on the control box using the 6-pin plug on the motor cable.
Channel 1 is the channel closest to the control port.
2. Connect further DL/DB to sockets 2, 3 and 4 in sequence.
3. Connect the desk panel to control port A1 or control port A2.
4. Check that the voltage stated on the label corresponds to the mains power.
If not, do not plug in mains cable.
5. Plug in the mains cable.
6. Switch on the power.

Initialisation of the DESKLINE DL1A parallel systems
To obtain parallel operation of a DESKLINE®system it is necessary that the system at first activation drives the lifting units DL1
in end stop position bottom. Thus the control box registers the bottom position for each lifting unit.
If an extra actuator apart from the DL1 is connected to the system this actuator must also be initialised. Drive the actuator to
inner posistion and then to outer position.
Besides the system has to be initialised when exchanging the lifting units or the control box.

Disposal of LINAK’s products
As LINAK’s customers often ask us how our products can be disposed or scrapped we have prepared this guidance that
enables a classification to different waste fractions for recycling or combustion.
Guidance
We recommend our products to be disassembled as much as possible and divided into different waste groups for recycling or
combustion.
For example, waste can be sorted into metals, plastics, cable scrap, combustible material, and recoverable resources.
Some of these main groups can be further divided into subgroups; e.g. metal can be divided into steel/aluminium/copper and
plastic can be divided into ABS/PA/PE/PP.
As an example, the table below breaks down the different components in LINAK products to various recycling groups:
Product Components Recycling group
Columns/ Actuator : Spindle and motor
