3 Installation guidelines
3.1 General criteria for the site selection
The charging station was constructed for the indoor and outdoor area. Accordingly, it is necessary
to ensure the installation conditions and the protection of the device at the installation site.
 Take into account the local electrical installation regulations, fire prevention measures and ac-
cident prevention regulations as well as emergency routes at this site.
 The charging station must not be installed in potentially explosive zones (EX environment).
 Mount the charging station so that it is not located in the direct flow of passersby and so that no
one can trip over connected charging cables and so that the charging cables do not cover or
cross passing pedestrian and motorized traffic.
 Do not install the charging station at locations where ammonia or ammonia gas is exposed
(e.g. in or at stables).
 The mounting surface must be sufficiently constructed in order to withstand the mechanical
forces.
 Do not mount the charging station at locations where falling objects (e.g. hung ladders or au-
tomobile tires) could damage the device.
 According to the product standard, the charging station must be located at a height between
0.4 m and 1.5 m.
We recommend mounting the charging station (height of the socket or parking bay) at a height
of 1.2 m. Observe that national regulations can limit this height.
 The device may not be exposed to direct spray water (by e.g. neighboring manual carwash
facility, high-pressure cleaner, garden hose).
 If possible, the device should be mounted protected from direct rainfall, in order to avoid e.g.
icing, damage because of hail or similar.
 If possible, the charging station should be mounted protected from direct sunlight, in order to
avoid the reduction of the charging current or the interruption of the charging procedure due too
high temperatures of the components inside the charging station.
 For not weatherproof mounting (e.g. in a parking lot outside), the charging current setting is
changed to 16A, if the temperature is inadmissible exceeded. Subsequently, the charging pro-
cess can also be switched off.

ter.
Observe the internationally relevant installation standards (e.g. IEC 60364-1 and IEC 60364-
5-52) and follow the applicable national installation standards and regulations.
