3.2.1 Interference suppression
Certain basic measures must be taken to ensure freedom from interference when the POLARIS Remote are installed:
■ Interference voltages injected into the unit via power and signal cables and static charges
caused by contact are to be conducted to earth (e.g. grounding screw terminal fixed to the back
of the unit). This earthing point must be connected to the PE conductor by means of the
shortest possible low resistance copper conductor or must be integrated in the equipotential
bonding. If this point is not observed, the measures taken to suppress interference and
preclude damage to the device effectively will be impaired.
■ The installation point should be as far as possible away from fields of electromagnetic
interference. This is especially important if there are frequency converters in the vicinity. Under
certain circumstances it will be advisable to set up partitions to isolate the POLARIS Remote
from interference.
■ If inductive unit are fitted in the vicinity (e.g. contactor, relay or solenoid coils), especially if they
are powered from the same source, protective circuits (e.g. RC elements) must be installed.
■ Power supply and data cables must be laid so as to avoid interference. This can, for example,
be achieved by avoiding laying such cables in close proximity to high current carrying cables.

5.3 Installation options
The POLARIS Remote can be installed directly in
■ Switch cabinet doors
■ Mimic panels
■ Enclosures
In order to guarantee IP 65, use the reinforcement frame and the enclosure’s own IP rating has to be suitable for the
application.
The following points should be taken into consideration when installing the POLARIS Remote:
■ Convenient height for operation.
■ Good lighting so that the display will be easily readable.
■ At ambient temperatures below 0°C, the POLARIS Remote has to be heated.
■ Below +10°C the POLARIS Remote needs to be heated to maintain the lifetime of the backlight
illumination.
■ Avoid installing in the immediate vicinity of switching devices or converters.
Note: Only use heating systems, which are certified for explosive areas!
The following factors should be taken into consideration in order to ensure proper and workmanlike installation:
■ The installation location must be sufficiently stable / fixed.
■ The enclosure in which the POLARIS Remote is mounted must be strong enough to support its
weight.
■ Following the cutting out of the opening into which the POLARIS Remote is to be fitted, the
surface must be dressed to ensure it is smooth, level and undamaged so as to preserve the
integrity of the seal.
5.3.1 Cable glands / Conduits
When connecting cables and leads to supplies / communications equipment in increased safety protected areas, Ex certified
cable entries must be used which are suitable for each type of cable and lead. You must maintain the protection concept “e”
and include a suitable sealing element so that an IP rating of at least IP 54 is maintained.
