Safety instructions
This instruction manual contains important safety information.
Read this instruction manual.
Keep this instruction manual in a safe place. Always include this instruction
manual when passing the system on to third parties.
Heed all warnings.
Follow all instructions.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose the device
and the mains unit to rain or moisture.
Disconnect the mains connector from the wall socket to completely discon-
nect the device from the mains during lightning storms or when unused for
long periods of time.
Use only the supplied mains unit.
Ensure that the mains unit is:
– always readily operable and easily accessible,
– properly plugged into the wall socket,
– only operated within the permissible temperature range (see “Specifi-
cations” on page 14),
– not covered or exposed to direct sunlight for longer periods of time in
order to prevent heat accumulation.
Use of the MO 2000 CU central unit
The MO 2000 CU central unit has been designed for use with the MO 2000 H
optical microphone.
OPTICAL MIC CENTRE UNIT
II (2) G [Ex op is T6 Gb] IIC
II (2) D [Ex op is Db]
TÜV 07 ATEX 553824
To meet the requirement of the ATEX directive, the central unit must be
installed and operated outside areas with potentially explosive atmospheres!
Use of the MO 2000 H optical microphone
When installed in the MZWW 2000 weather and wind protection, the
MO 2000 H optical microphone meets the IP 54 standard for dust and mois-
ture resistance. In combination with the MZWW 2000, the optical microphone
is approved and permitted for:
y use in zone I explosive atmospheres
0044
y use in potentially explosive atmospheres of group IIC and temperature class
T6.
Rack mounting
When installing the device in a closed or multi-rack assembly, please consider
that, during operation, the ambient temperature within the rack may signifi-
cantly rise above room temperature. However, the ambient temperature
within the rack must not exceed the temperature limit specified in the speci-
fications.
When installing the device in a rack, take good care not to affect the ventila-
tion required for safe operation or provide additional ventilation.
Make sure the mechanical loading of the rack is even to avoid a hazardous
condition such as a severely unbalanced rack.
When installing the device in a closed or multi-rack assembly, please note
that intrinsically harmless leakage currents of the individual devices may
accumulate, thereby exceeding the allowable limit value. As a remedy,
ground the rack via an additional ground connection.
2
Operation
This device must be operated only from the type of power supply indicated
on the type plate. Observe correct polarity!
Never push objects of any kind through openings of this device as they may
touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that could result in fire or
electric shock.
Ensure sufficient ventilation. Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in
accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
Do not install near any heat sources such as central heating radiators, electric
heaters, stoves, or other devices that produce heat (e.g. amplifiers). Keep the
device away from direct sunlight and similar sources of heat.
Only use attachments/accessories specified by Sennheiser.
Use the device in dry rooms only. Do not expose the device to dripping or
splashing and ensure that no objects filled with liquids, such as vases or
coffee cups, are placed on the device. Do not use the device near water or
liquids.
Should a spillage occur, unplug the device and have it checked by a techni-
cian.
Service
No user serviceable parts inside! Do not attempt to service devices yourself as
opening or removing covers may expose dangerous voltage or other hazards.
If devices are opened by customers in breach of this instruction, the warranty
becomes null and void.
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required if a
device has been damaged in any way, such as mains cable or plug damage,
liquid has been spilled, objects have fallen inside, the device has been
exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate properly or has been dropped.
Intended use of the device
“Intended use” means that the device should be used within the operating
conditions and limitations described in this instruction manual.
“Improper use” means using the device other than as described in this
instruction manual, or under operating conditions which differ from those
described herein.

IAS-MO 2000 SET
The IAS-MO 2000 Set system consists of the following main components:
y 1 MO 2000 Set optical microphone system
y 1 MZWW 2000 weather and wind protection
The IAS-MO 2000 Set system meets the requirements of the ATEX directive.
The MO 2000 H optical microphone consists of an opto-acoustic microphone
head which is fitted with a fixed 3 m double fiber optic cable. The fiber optic
cable is connected to the MO 2000 CU central unit. Power is supplied via an
external wide voltage range power supply unit.
The MO 2000 H is an omni-directional microphone designed for picking up air-
borne sound. The components of the MO 2000 H microphone head (outside
dimensions: 1/2 inch) are made of plastic suitable for permanent stationary
use in areas where aggressive substances (gases, salts, moisture) or radia-
tion are present. All components of the MO 2000 H microphone head are
metal-free, including the fiber optic cable feed.
The main areas of application of the optical microphone are acoustic mea-
surement and communication tasks in industrial environments and EMC-sen-
sitive areas as well as medical magnetic resonance imaging and magneto-
encephalographic measurement (MEG). Other applications are to be found in
the field of non-detectable acoustic surveillance.

Putting the system into operation
Risk of staining of furniture surfaces!
CAUTION!
Some furniture surfaces have been treated with varnish, polish
or synthetics which might cause stains when they come into
contact with other synthetics. Despite a thorough testing of
the synthetics used by us, we cannot rule out the possibility of
staining.
̈ Do not place the central unit on delicate furniture surfaces.
You can set up the device on an even surface or mount it into a 19” rack.
Note:
Do not fit the rubber feet when rack mounting the device.
Setting up the device
To ensure that the device cannot slip on the surface on which it is placed, fix
the supplied four self-adhesive soft rubber feet to the base of the device.
̈ Ensure that the base of the device is clean and free from grease before
fitting the rubber feet.
̈ Fix the rubber feet to the base of the device by peeling off the backing
paper and fitting them as shown.

Risk of damage to fiber optic cable!
CAUTION!
CAUTION!
CAUTION!
Fiber optic cable must not be bent like conventional cable!
̈ When installing fiber optic cable, make sure not to bend it
beyond a bend radius of 50 mm.
Signal loss!
A wrong polarity will reduce the signal strength.
̈ When connecting the microphone, please observe correct
polarity.
Liquids can damage the electronics!
Liquids entering the housing of the device can cause a short-
circuit and damage the electronics.
̈ For outdoor applications, use only a suitable cable together
with the supplied fiber optic connector ቨ.
̈ Before connecting the optical microphone, remove the protections caps
from the microphone connections µ and ¸ of the central unit. Keep the
protection caps in a safe place for reuse during transport or storage. They
protect the microphone connections against dirt.
̈ Connect the duplex connector of the professionally ready-made cable to
the microphone connections µ and ¸ of the central unit. Please observe
the correct insertion direction of the connector. The duplex connector is
connected the correct way round when the label ቯ on the connector is
facing downwards as shown.

̈ Push down the plastic housing on an even base until the housing detaches
from the connectors with an audible click.
Note:
Use a solid, even and clean base (e.g. a sheet of paper) in order to not
damage the tips of the connectors.
̈ Pull the connectors of the fiber optic cable ባ one after the other out of
the plastic housing.
2
̈ Remove the protection caps of the SCRJ-GOF socket inside the weather
and windshield.
̈ Observe correct polarity of the professionally ready-made cable, i.e. insert
the connectors of the fiber optic cable ባ into the SCRJ-GOF socket so that
the polarizing keys point outward. When the connectors are inserted
correctly, the polarizing keys lock into place with an audible click (see dia-
gram on page 9).
̈ Lay the remaining microphone cable around the microphone clamp.
Please note that fiber optic cable must not be bent like conventional cable.
Make sure not to bend it beyond a bend radius of 50 mm.
̈ Insert the optical microphone ቢ into the microphone clamp ቮ.
