2 Installing the components
2.1 Charger unit
NOTE
• The placement of the charger unit within the cowshed is very important. Place the charger unit somewhere
in the cowshed where there is a minimum of cow movements. Avoid drinking troughs and narrow
passageways when positioning it.
• Mount the floor column (if present) on a clean and even floor surface.
• Redundancy in the routes can be reduced by finding a position in the cowshed that is as central as possible.
• Make sure that a 230VAC power supply (an earthed socket) is available near the battery charger.
The charger unit can be installed in two ways, namely:
1) Wall-mounted (standard)
2) Floor-mounted (optional, requiring a floor column)
