Installation of the Ignition Controller

The installation of the MIC6 ignition controller is generally implemented on a fixed bracket e. g. on a wall near the engine. Use the included vibration dampers and the ground strap. The following vibration dampers are included in the scope of supply of the respective devices:

The installation location of the controller must be selected so that the distance to the pickups installed on the engine ensures a reliable signal transmission to the ignition controller, and so that there is adequate space for maintenance and repair work. The mechanical specifications must always be complied with (refer to Mechanical Data). The ground strap serves to ground the ignition controller and must be used accordingly. Ensure a flawless electrical connection for this purpose.

To ensure sufficient cooling through the cooling body, the device must be mounted so that the vanes of the cooling body are vertical and the hot air can escape upwards unimpeded.

 

Risk of destruction!

The devices of the MIC6-Marine series may only be installed directly on the engine with the supplied wire rope vibration dampers. Furthermore the permissible vibrations and temperatures must not be exceeded because otherwise electronic components can be destroyed. Refer to the section Mechanical Data.

The MIC6 series devices intended for use with stationary gas engines may only be installed on the engine if the wire rope vibration dampers intended for the marine devices are used (not included).
