manual. He/she must also supervise correct compliance with the instructions.
• Display the safety icons that are applicable in the room where the equipment is set up.
• Position the cabinet in a space that meets the environmental requirements.
• Make sure the space and the cabinet are easily accessible. There must be enough space to open
the cabinet for maintenance and installation. This is especially important if you need to switch
off the system with the circuit breaker in the event of problems.
• Keep water out of the cabinet. Do not use a high pressure cleaner to clean the cabinet.
• Do not use aggressive cleaning agents, scouring sponges or abrasives for cleaning.
• Damage to Compass components may occur as a result of:
• Incorrect transportation or storage.
• Incorrect installation and assembly.
• Incorrect environmental conditions.
• Wearing, aging or metal fatigue.
Electrical safety
The unit is powered from the mains voltage. There is a potential hazard of electrocution or fire
resulting from a short circuit. You must therefore adhere to the following safety instructions:
• Keep the housings of electrical components closed.
• Keep the electrical parts dry.
• Make sure the earthing is connected according to the principle "make contact first, break contact
last". The earth wire must therefore be twice as long as the phase wire and neutral wire.
• Ensure that the unit is connected to its own fuse group with the correct fuses.
During installation, maintenance or while resolving faults it may be necessary to open the housing
for the electrical components. In this case, adhere to the following safety instructions:
• Preferably, make the unit totally free of electricity by removing the plug from the socket outlet,
switching off the circuit breaker or by removing fuses from the fuse group.
• If the unit cannot be made free of electricity then take extreme care. Use well-insulated tools
and do not touch the ends of wires, connections and electrical components with your bare
hands. Keep the surroundings dry and ensure that there is someone close by to keep an eye on
you.
• Wear an earthed wrist strap when working in the cabinet. Otherwise the electronic components
may be damaged due to static electricity.
