Installing the Jellox Node
Important:
- Ensure installation is completed correctly.
- Comply with existing legal and/or operational directives.
- Improper handling can cause injuries and/or damage to the devices.
- The Jellox Node must not be operated in the field without a protective armour.
- Due to the electrostatic effects, the protective armour must not be rubbed with cloths in the Ex zone.
- When using metallic mounting fixtures, these have to be integrated in the grounding concept in a suitable manner.
- Impact resistance note: Only install in areas with a low risk of mechanical damage. Otherwise, protect the device from mechanical damage.
The installation site must be selected according to specific criteria. The following conditions must be avoided in any case:
- Direct sunlight
- Direct influence of weather (rain, snow, ...)
- Objects that radiate intense heat (maximum ambient temperature: -20...+50 °C )
- Objects with a strong electromagnetic field (frequency converter or similar)
- Corrosive chemicals or gases
- Mechanical impacts
- Direct installation on paths or roads
- Vibrations
- Radioactive emissions
Tip: Leave sufficient space at the lower end to mount the antenna. The space required depends on the antenna used. Generally, a space of approx. 15 cm must be left beneath the device. Further information regarding the installation dimensions can be found in the relevant sub-chapter.
