Installation
B General Installation Hints
Please consider besides these general hints also any product-specific hints in the "Installation" chapter of this manual.
B1 Unpacking
Check the equipment for any transport damage. A unit that is mechanically damaged or that has been penetrated by liquids or foreign objects must not be connected to the AC power outlet or must be immediately disconnected by unplugging the power cable. Repairs must only be performed by trained personnel in accordance with the applicable regulations.
B2 Installation Site
Install the unit in a place where the following conditions are met:
• The temperature and the relative humidity of the environment must be within the specified limits during operation of the unit. Relevant air val­ues are the ones at the air inlets of the unit.
• Condensation must be avoided. If the unit is installed in a location with large variation of ambient temperature (e.g. in an OB-van), feasible measures must be taken before and after operation (for details on this subject, refer to Appendix 1).
• Unobstructed air flow is essential for proper operation. Air vents of the unit are a functional part of the design and must not be blocked in any way during operation (e.g. by objects placed upon them or placement of the unit on a soft support).
• The unit must not be heated up by external sources of heat radiation (sunlight, spot lights).
B3 Earthing and Power Supply
Earthing of units with mains supply (class I equipment) is performed via the protective earth (PE) conductor integrated in the mains cable. Units with battery operation (< 60 V, class III equipment) must be earthed sepa­rately. Earthing the unit is one of the measures for protection against electrical shock hazard (dangerous body currents). Hazardous voltage may not only be caused by a defective power supply insulation, but may also be intro­duced by the connected audio or control cables. If the unit is installed with one or several external connections, its earthing must be provided during operation as well as while the unit is inoperative. If the earthing could be interrupted via the power supply (e.g. by pulling the mains plug), an additional, permanent earthing must be installed using the provided earth terminal. Avoid ground loops (hum loops) by keeping the loop surface as small as possible (by consequently guiding the earth conductors in a narrow, paral­lel way), and reduce the noise current flowing through the loop by inserting an additional impedance (common-mode choke).

Class I Equipment (Mains Operation)
Installation
Should the equipment be delivered without a matching mains cable, the latter has to be prepared by a trained person using the attached female plug (IEC320/C13 or IEC320/C19) with respect to the applicable regulations in your country. Before connecting the equipment to the AC power outlet, check that the local line voltage matches the equipment rating (voltage, frequency) within the admissible tolerance. The equipment fuses must be rated in accordance with the specifications on the equipment. Equipment supplied with a 3-pole appliance inlet (protection conforming to class I equipment) must be connected to a 3-pole AC power outlet so that the equipment cabinet is connected to the protective earth. For information on mains cable strain relief please refer to Appendix 2.

Class III Equipment (Battery Operation up to 60 VDC)
Equipment of this protection class must be earthed using the provided earth terminal, if one or more external signals are connected to the unit (see ex­planation at the beginning of this paragraph).
B4 Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
The unit conforms to the protection requirements relevant to electromag­netic phenomena that are listed in the guidelines 89/336/EC and FCC, part
15.
• The electromagnetic interference generated by the unit is limited in such a way that other equipment and systems can be operated normally.
• The unit is adequately protected against electromagnetic interference so that it can operate properly.
The unit has been tested and conforms to the EMC standards of the speci­fied electromagnetic environment, as listed in the following declaration. The limits of these standards ensure protection of the environment and cor­responding noise immunity of the equipment with appropriate probability. However, a professional installation and integration within the system are imperative prerequisites for operation without EMC problems. For this purpose, the following measures must be followed:
• Install the equipment in accordance with the operating instructions. Use the supplied accessories.
• In the system and in the vicinity where the equipment is installed, use only components (systems, equipment) that also fulfill the EMC stan­dards for the given environment.
• Use a system grounding concept that satisfies the safety requirements (class I equipment must be connected with a protective ground conduc-

Installation/Maintenance/ESD
tor) and that also takes into consideration the EMC requirements. When deciding between radial, surface, or combined grounding, the advan­tages and disadvantages should be carefully evaluated in each case.
• Use shielded cables where shielding is specified. The connection of the shield to the corresponding connector terminal or housing should have a large surface and be corrosion-proof. Please note that a cable shield connected only single-ended can act as a transmitting or receiving an­tenna within the corresponding frequency range.
• Avoid ground loops or reduce their adverse effects by keeping the loop surface as small as possible, and reduce the noise current flowing through the loop by inserting an additional impedance (e.g. common­mode choke).
• Reduce electrostatic discharge (ESD) of persons by installing an appro­priate floor covering (e.g. a carpet with permanent electrostatic fila­ments) and by keeping the relative humidity above 30%. Further meas­ures (e.g. conducting floor) are usually unnecessary and only suitable if used together with corresponding personal equipment.
• When using equipment with touch-sensitive operator controls, please take care that the surrounding building structure allows for sufficient capacitive coupling of the operator. This coupling can be improved by an additional, conducting surface in the operator’s area, connected to the equipment housing (e.g. metal foil underneath the floor covering, carpet with conductive backing).
C Maintenance
All air vents and openings for operating elements (faders, rotary knobs) must be checked on a regular basis, and cleaned in case of dust accumula­tion. For cleaning, a soft paint-brush or a vacuum cleaner is recommended. Cleaning the surfaces of the unit is performed with a soft, dry cloth or a soft brush. Persistent contamination can be treated with a cloth that is slightly humidi­fied with a mild cleaning solution (soap-suds). For cleaning display windows, commercially available computer/TV screen cleaners are suited. Use only a slightly damp (never wet) cloth.
Never use any solvents for cleaning the exterior of the unit! Liquids must never be sprayed or poured on directly!
For equipment-specific maintenance information please refer to the corre­sponding chapter in the Operating and Service Instructions manuals.
D Electrostatic Discharge during Maintenance and Repair
Caution: Observe the precautions for handling devices sensitive to electrostatic dis-
charge! Many semiconductor components are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). The life-span of assemblies containing such components can be drastically reduced by improper handling during maintenance and repair work. Please observe the following rules when handling ESD sensitive components:
• ESD sensitive components should only be stored and transported in the packing material specifically provided for this purpose.
• When performing a repair by replacing complete assemblies, the re­moved assembly must be sent back to the supplier in the same packing

material in which the replacement assembly was shipped. If this should not be the case, any claim for a possible refund will be null and void.
• Unpacked ESD sensitive components should only be handled in ESD protected areas (EPA, e.g. area for field service, repair or service bench) and only be touched by persons who wear a wristlet that is connected to the ground potential of the repair or service bench by a series resistor. The equipment to be repaired or serviced as well as all tools and electri­cally semi-conducting work, storage, and floor mats should also be con­nected to this ground potential.
• The terminals of ESD sensitive components must not come in uncon­trolled contact with electrostatically chargeable (voltage puncture) or metallic surfaces (discharge shock hazard).
• To prevent undefined transient stress of the components and possible damage due to inadmissible voltages or compensation currents, electri­cal connections should only be established or separated when the equipment is switched off and after any capacitor charges have decayed.
Removal of housing parts, shields, etc. exposes energized parts. For this reason the following precautions must be observed:
• Maintenance may only be performed by trained personnel in accordance with the applicable regulations.
• The equipment must be switched off and disconnected from the AC power outlet before any housing parts are removed.
• Even if the equipment is disconnected from the power outlet, parts with hazardous charges (e.g. capacitors, picture tubes) must not be touched until they have been properly discharged. Do not touch hot components (power semiconductors, heat sinks, etc.) before they have cooled off.
• If maintenance is performed on a unit that is opened and switched on, no un-insulated circuit components and metallic semiconductor housings must be touched, neither with your bare hands nor with un-insulated tools.
Certain components pose additional hazards:
Explosion hazard from lithium batteries, electrolytic capacitors and power semiconductors (watch the component’s polarity. Do not short battery terminals. Replace batteries only by the same type).
Implosion hazard from evacuated display units.
Radiation hazard from laser units (non-ionizing), picture tubes (ioniz­ing).
Caustic effect of display units (LCD) and components containing liquid electrolyte.
Such components should only be handled by trained personnel who are properly protected (e.g. safety goggles, gloves).

Appendix
Appendix 1: Air Temperature and Humidity
General
Normal operation of the unit or system is warranted under the following ambient conditions defined by EN 60721-3-3, set IE32, value 3K3. This standard consists of an extensive catalogue of parameters, the most important of which are: ambient temperature +5...+40 °C, relative humidity
5...85% (i.e., no formation of condensation or ice); absolute humidity
1...25 g/m³; rate of temperature change < 0.5 °C/min. These parameters are dealt with in the following paragraphs. Under these conditions the unit or system starts and works without any problem. Beyond these specifications, possible problems are described in the following paragraphs.
Ambient Temperature
Units and systems by Studer are generally designed for an ambient tem­perature range (i.e. temperature of the incoming air) of +5...+40 °C. When rack mounting the units, the intended air flow and herewith adequate cool­ing must be provided. The following facts must be considered:
• The admissible ambient temperature range for operation of the semi­conductor components is 0 °C to +70 °C (commercial temperature range for operation).
• The air flow through the installation must provide that the outgoing air is always cooler than 70 °C.
• Average heat increase of the cooling air shall be 20 K, allowing for an additional maximum 10 K increase at the hot components.
• In order to dissipate 1 kW with this admissible average heat increase, an air flow of 2.65 m³/min is required.
Example: A rack dissipating P = 800 W requires an air flow of 0.8 * 2.65 m³/min
which corresponds to 2.12 m³/min.
• If the cooling function of the installation must be monitored (e.g. for fan failure or illumination with spot lamps), the outgoing air temperature must be measured directly above the modules at several places within the rack. The trigger temperature of the sensors should be 65 to 70 °C.
Frost and Dew
The unsealed system parts (connector areas and semiconductor pins) allow for a minute formation of ice or frost. However, formation of dew visible with the naked eye will already lead to malfunctions. In practice, reliable operation can be expected in a temperature range above –15 °C, if the fol­lowing general rule is considered for putting the cold system into opera­tion: If the air within the system is cooled down, the relative humidity rises. If it reaches 100%, condensation will arise, usually in the boundary layer be­tween the air and a cooler surface, together with formation of ice or dew at sensitive areas of the system (contacts, IC pins, etc.). Once internal con­densation occurs, trouble-free operation cannot be guaranteed, independent of temperature.
