3.5 Fastening
The Xtender is a heavy unit and must be mounted to a wall designed to bear such a load. A simple wooden panel is insufficient.
The Xtender must be installed vertically with sufficient space around it to guarantee adequate ventilation of the device (see figs. 2a and 2b).
If the Xtender is installed in a closed cabinet this must have sufficient ventilation to guarantee an ambient temperature that conforms to the operation of the Xtender.
Firstly, fit the mounting bracket (18) supplied with the device, using 2 Ø
Then hang the Xtender on the bracket. Fasten the unit permanently using 2 Ø
**: These items are not delivered with the device.
It is imperative to ensure complete and safe fastening of the device. A device that is simply hung may detach and cause severe damage.
In motor vehicles or when the support may be subject to strong vibrations, the Xtender must be mounted on
3.6 Connections
3.6.1GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
The Xtender falls within protection class I (has a PE connection terminal). It is vital that a protective earth is connected to the AC IN and/or AC OUT PE terminals. An additional protective earth is located between the two fastening screws at the bottom of the unit (fig.
In all cases, the PE conductor for the equipment must at least be connected to the PE for all equipment in protection class I upstream and downstream of the Xtender (equipotential bonding). It is imperative that the legislation in force for the application concerned be adhered to.
Tighten of the input (13) and output (14) terminals by means of a no. 3 screwdriver and those for the “REMOTE ON/OFF” (7) and “AUX.CONTAC” (8) by means of a no. 1 screwdriver.
The cable sections of these terminals must conform to local regulations.
All connection cables as well as the battery cables must be mounted using cable restraints in order to avoid any traction on the connection.
Battery cables must also be as short as possible and the section must conform with the applicable regulations and standards. Sufficiently tighten the clamps on the “battery” inputs (fig. 4a (11) and (12)).
3.6.2DEVICE CONNECTION COMPARTMENT
The unit’s connection compartment must remain permanently closed when in operation. It is imperative to close the protection cap on the connection terminals after each intervention in the device.
After opening, check that all sources of AC and DC voltage (batteries) have been disconnected or put out of service.
