STUDER INNOTEC HP-COMPACT
HP-COMPACT V5.4 10/80
3 Mounting and installing
3.1 Installation place
The location of the HP-COMPACT must be driven by the following criteria:
− Protection from unauthorized handling
− Dry dust free room, no condensation
− Never install directly over the battery and never in a cabinet together with the
batteries
− Keep ventilation holes free
− In mobile installations it is important to keep the vibrations down as low as
possible
3.2 Fixing
Basically the HP-COMPACT can be installed in any desired location but only
vertically. First of all the plate supplied along with the HP-COMPACT must be
screwed firmly (due to the weight of the device) on the wall. Then the HP-COMPACT
is hooked on the plate and screwed underneath.
Cautious: the fixing must be fully made otherwise the HP-COMPACT may fall
and cause important damages.
In motor vehicles HP-COMPACT must be fixed on vibrations reducing elements. The
HP-COMPACT must not be fixed on a combustible base, as the back of the casing
can get hot and reach up to 60 degrees Celsius.
3.3 Connections
3.3.1 General instructions on connecting
− The cable connection on the terminals AC INPUT and AC OUTPUT must be

battery cables.
− To protect the battery cables, a fuse corresponding to the conductor cross
section must be fixed directly on to the battery.
− All cables must be tightly screwed in place. For safety, a yearly control is
recommended. In mobile installations controls must be carried out more often.
