|---|---|
| Class Approval | Type approval is model and configuration specific. Marine installations may require acceptance or approval by DNV, ABS, Lloyd's Register, Bureau Veritas or ClassNK according to the vessel's class rules; current certificates must be verified with the manufacturer. |
Installation, Maintenance & Safety Information
| Installation Notes | Install servers, gateways, modems and antennas in approved locations according to manufacturer drawings. Confirm network coverage, protective grounding, power quality and communication with each reefer socket or modem. Commission and label all monitored positions. |

| Maintenance Tips | Inspect communication hardware, antennas, connectors and network cabinets regularly. Back up configuration and event databases, test alarm reporting, update approved software securely and investigate containers that repeatedly lose communication. |
| Safety Notes | Isolate electrical supplies before servicing sockets, modems or power-line communication equipment. Only authorized personnel should change reefer setpoints or issue control commands. Maintain cybersecurity controls and verify critical cargo alarms directly at the container when necessary. |
