Safety Precautions

1.2 General

The EPC is intended for industrial use only.

The EPC is constructed for naval applications and for indoor use according to IEC 60945.

Read the safety precautions carefully.

Check the delivery for transportation damage. If damage is found, notify the supplier as soon as possible.

Do not use the EPC in an environment with high explosive hazards.

The supplier is not responsible for modified, altered or reconstructed equipment.

Use only parts and accessories manufactured according to specifications of the supplier.

Read the installation and operating instructions carefully before installing, using or repairing the EPC.

Never allow fluids, metal filings or wiring debris to enter any openings in the EPC. This may cause fire or electrical shock.

Only qualified personnel may operate the EPC.

Storing the EPC where the temperature is lower/higher than recommended in this manual can cause the LCD display liquid to congeal/become isotopic.

The LCD display liquid contains a powerful irritant. In case of skin contact, wash immediately with plenty of water. In case of eye contact, hold the eye open, flush with plenty of water and get medical attention.

The figures in this manual serves an illustrative purpose. Because of the many variables associated with any particular installation, the supplier cannot assume responsibility for actual use based on the figures.

The supplier neither guarantees that the EPC is suitable for your particular application, nor assumes responsibility for your product design, installation or operation.

Description of Parts

5.4 Motherboard

The EPC C2D Nautic has 2 SODIMM slots for main storage and 2 PCI-slots. Further details on the motherboard can be found in a separate manual, included in the delivery.

Note:

The quality of the memory module may influence the system stability. When updating the memory module, or adding a second one, please only use memory modules approved by Beijer Electronics. Memory modules are electrostatic sensitive components. Relevant protective measures (earth) have to be considered during assembly/ disassembly. ESD-protective measures are to be considered when opening and working on the EPC.

5.5 Assembly

A free space of 100 mm, for air circulation, has to be provided around the EPC, to dissipate the heat generated during operation.

The EPC C2D Nautic is assembled with items included in the supplied mounting kit.

Note:

Possible risk of damage to the EPC!

Protection class IP65 for the front panel is only guaranteed with a perfect fitting seal. Pay attention to the torque when fixing the front panel.
