Temperature variations
It temperature variations are high (e.g. during air
transport) the PM400 must be protected against
condensed water. Otherwise the electronic components
can become damaged.
Intermediate storage
Ensure also that the PM400 is stored dry during
intermediate storage.
Assembling
Assemble the PM400 on a firm base. Further parameters are
given in the section „Technical data”.
Net weight of PM400 approx. 290 kg
The machine must be locked in position before starting up.
For this purpose press the locking lever F of the two front
rollers downwards.
Parameters for the place of installation
Ambient temperature:
5°C to 40°C
If the ambient temperature drops below or exceeds these
values the electrical and mechanical components can become
damaged and performance data are changed to an unknown
extent.
Atmospheric humidity:
Maximum relative humidity = 80% at temperatures up to 31°C,
decreasing linearly down to 50% relative humidty at 40°C.
At higher atmospheric humidity the electrical and mechanical
components can become damaged, and performance data are
changed to an unknown extent.
Installation height:
max. 2000 m above sea level
Electrical connection
Voltage and frequency for the PM400 are given on the type
plate.
Ensure that these values correspond to the available power
supply system.
Connect the PM400 to the power supply system using the
supplied connection cable.
Protection by external fusing is to be carried out when
connecting the mains cable to the power supply, according
to the regulations at the place of installation.
