• Ensure the faceplate faces away from the body.
• The device cannot rotate in a pocket.
Lithium ion batteries
Personal Nodes have lithium ion battery packs fitted.
Ensure the Personal Node battery is flat before airfreighting. This is achieved by waiting
>24 hours after the last charge cycle and no LEDs are illuminated.
If you are authorised and advised to replace a battery pack:
• Replace ONLY with a Minetec supplied battery pack:
M1011000 Personal Node Spare Battery Assembly (with rear cover & gasket).
• Installing the incorrect battery pack can result in a serious safety hazard.
• Do not dispose of lithium ion batteries as waste. Dispose of the battery according to the local
regulations dealing with the disposal of batteries or take them to collecting points for disposal of
batteries.
Personal Node Charging Dock safety
To ensure your own personal safety and prevent electrical damage and/or fire, please read these
safety statements before installing the Personal Node Charging Dock.
All care must be taken when locating and using the dock to:
• Prevent damage to the charging leaf contacts.
• Prevent liquids or dirt entering the dock vents or charging slots.
• Disconnect devices from all power sources before cleaning. Do not use liquid or spray detergents
for cleaning. Use a damp cloth.
• Prevent metallic objects (eg screws, swarf, etc.) entering the dock vents and charging slots.
• Replace any worn, damaged or cracked power cables.
To prevent electrical shock and/or fire, consider the following:
• Route all cables so that people cannot step on them.
• Ensure cables are not under strain when connected.
• Ensure the cables have no kinks or sharp bends.
• Protect lead wires from abrasion and chafing by using wire loom or conduit, and route away from
moving parts, hydrocarbons and high-temperatures areas.
• Protect all cabling using conduit and secure using P-clamps and/or cable ties at suitable distances
to minimise vibrational flexing and maximise bend radii.
• Use cable glanding for structural penetrations (eg holes through sheet metal).
Compressed Air
Many sites do not provide or permit the use of compressed air. If your site permits compressed air to
be used for cleaning of equipment then follow all site HSE procedures.
Do not open the Charging Dock unless you are qualified and an authorised
electrician/electronics service personnel.
Unplug the dock from the power source before opening.
