Qualification of the Users
After installation, users will be instructed in the operation and service and
maintenance of the Suprasetter by Heidelberg service personnel. Further
instruction, for example, for new staff employed subsequently, must be
ensured by the operator of the Suprasetter.
General
The Suprasetter may be installed only by authorized service personnel. The
ambient conditions must be observed.
For the operating company of a print shop, it is important that the exposure
limits regarding the breathable air in the work area, where the Suprasetter is
located, are adhered to. The air exchange must be arranged in such a way that
the measured dust particles are regularly below the exposure limit values. In
accordance with the state of the art, this can be achieved with an 8 to 10 air
change rate per hour. If this is not the case at the installation site, the operating company should install an additional exhaust system.
Warning: Unauthorized opening of any parts of the casing not specifically referred to in the operating manual and inexpert repairs can lead
to considerable danger for the user.

Warning: The following loads should not be exceeded: women 15 kg,
men 25 kg.
Warning: The key-operated switch that can be seen after the top right
side panel is opened may be operated only by service personnel and not
by the operator.
The key-operated switch bypasses the safety loop.
The following risks can occur:
- Hazard of being crushed by moving parts.
- Injury from electric shock.
Warning: If cleaning the Suprasetter involves the use of liquids, discon-
nect it from the power supply beforehand. Do this by pulling out the
power connector on the service tap or by switching it off with the power
switch.
Warning: You run the risk of injuring your fingers on the sharp edges of
the printing plates if your fingers are between the insertion/ejection
table and the cross conveyor of the Suprasetter. The protective cover is
used to avoid this.
Warning: Wear disposable gloves and light dust mask We recom-
mend that you wear the disposable gloves and light dust mask included
in the kit when you are changing the filters. After you remove the filters,
clean the casing with a vacuum cleaner. Place the used filters, dispos-
able gloves, dust mask and vacuum cleaner bag in a plastic bag, tie the
bag up and dispose of it as general commercial waste. If you are not
sure about disposal procedures, contact your local waste disposal com-
pany for details.
Power Switch with Emergency Cutoff Function
The Suprasetter is fully cut off from the power supply by the power switch (red
rotary switch).
Suprasetter 145/162/190 – User’s Guide 11
Before you start ...
The power switch (red rotary switch) separates the Suprasetter's four poles
from the power supply. In an emergency, this power switch is used as an emergency stop switch for the Suprasetter.
Emergency Stop Switch
All mechanical motions in the device are stopped and the invisible laser beam
is switched off when the emergency stop switches (fully automated device: 8
units, semi-automated device: 4 units) are used.
Use these switches in cases of emergency only. They are located behind the
panels of the device. They are designed for an emergency during servicing.
On/Off button
The Suprasetter is only de-energized by the On/Off button.
The CEE or Nema outlets of the service line must be easily accessible at all
times.
To fully separate the Suprasetter from mains, e.g. in case of danger, the device
must be de-energized by actuating the power switch or unplugging the CEE or
Nema plug if applicable.
When connecting or disconnecting the power cable, make sure that your
hands are not wet and only hold the cable at the connector, if the cable has
one. A damaged power cable can cause leakage currents and electric shocks.
Protect the power cable from being damaged. Never place any heavy objects
upon it and do not allow it to get jammed.
Laser Safety

If used as directed, the user is never exposed to danger from the laser beam.
The laser systems used in the Suprasetter are Class 4 products (> 500 mW).
Companies servicing the equipment in Germany must appoint a laser protection officer in compliance with the Accident Prevention Regulations (BGV B2) of
the Professional Trade Association.
Servicing may only be carried out by Heidelberg personnel who have
been trained by appropriate laser protection officers for this purpose.
Service and Maintenance
Servicing may be done solely by persons who are authorized by Heidelberg to
do so.
The relevant accident prevention regulations must be observed at all times.
Warning: Never remove covers or any other parts of the casing except
for the work described in the "Service and Maintenance" and "Trouble-
shooting" chapters. Keep exactly to the procedures laid down when
doing this.
If you do not, the invisible
skin and/or you may suffer a fatal electric shock.
Warning: You may be exposed to dangerous radiation by the invisible
laser beams if you use operating or adjustment equipment other than
those mentioned in this document or if you follow other working proce-
dures.
When carrying out work as described in the customer documentation,
the user must always adhere to the operating process stipulated. Pro-
tection from invisible

Check of the safety loop
For the safety of the users, EN ISO 13849-1 requires that the safety function of
the Suprasetters is checked at regular intervals.
Automatic check of the safety loop
This regular check is triggered automatically after the following criteria:
• When switching on the Suprasetters
• When running certain error corrections
• When the machine is running after a period of 24 hours before the start
of a new plate sequence and a brief waiting period.
During the startup, a window displays on the CTP User Interface, pointing out
the check of the safety loop.

ESD Protective Measures for Prepress Systems and Operators
Basics
Devices from Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG are resistant to electrostatic
discharges (within the limits of EN 55024:2001).
In order to protect devices and users from being unnecessarily exposed to such
discharges, we have listed a few tips below that will help reduce the frequency
and intensity of the discharges.
Formation
In a prepress environment, this physical phenomenon occurs most frequently
as a result of triboelectricity. In such cases, electrostatic charges are generated
when bodies that have close contact are separated.
16 Version 2019
Before you start ...
Examples:
• Walking across non-conductive (insulating) flooring (e.g. synthetic floor
covering)
• Removing the slip sheet from the plate
• Getting up off a seat
The intensity of these charges is determined basically by the following parameters:
• Humidity
• Roughness of the material surface
• Pressure/space when in contact
• Conductivity of the materials
Practical Tips
The following practical tips are to help reduce the number and intensity of electrostatic discharges when handling the devices:
• Install the devices in rooms that have conductive floor covering.
• Resistance to ground < 1x10
ing does not comply with this requirement in the majority of cases. Pure
concrete flooring generally has a low volume resistance. If you have nonconductive floor covering, the use of ESD mats placed on the operator
side of the devices is recommended. These mats can be obtained from
suppliers. However, in such a case, existing charges are only slowly
reduced depending on the shoes that the personnel wear. For personal
safety, the resistance of floor to ground should not fall below 105 ohms.

ohms (IEC/EN 61340-5). Synthetic carpet-
• The humidity at the installation site should not fall below 45% relative
humidity. High air humidity is a decisive factor in preventing the formation of electrostatic charges. For example, a relative humidity of 10 - 20%
will produce 35,000 V when crossing a carpet. This value drops to 1,500
V with a relative air humidity of 65 - 90%.
Suprasetter 145/162/190 – User’s Guide 17
Before you start ...
• Clothing where cotton material is >50%.
• Conductive seating.
• ESD shoes that can be obtained from suppliers and are used on conductive flooring help further to reduce charges when walking across floor
coverings.

Introduction
Introduction
Description of the Unit and its Functions
The Suprasetter is a high-speed computer-to-plate imaging device for large-format plates.
It images thermal printing plates in daylight operation. The Suprasetter
receives screened data from the RIP for imaging onto printing plates. On a
manual device or semi-automatic device, the plates are placed manually onto
the insertion table or, in the case of a fully automated device, they are loaded
by the cassette magazine. The Suprasetter automatically loads the plate onto
the drum, images it, punches it (option) and conveys the imaged plate back to
the insertion table or to the connected ejection table.
The Suprasetter can be shipped and installed in various versions:
• As a manual device. The plates are inserted and ejected at the front of the
device.
• As a semi-automatic device with manual plate feed at the front. The
plates are ejected at the rear of the device to an ejection table that conveys them straight ahead, to the right or to the left.
• As a fully automated device, with the plates ejected at the front of the
device to an ejection table that conveys them straight ahead, to the right
or to the left.
