Installation Requirements

z

Decide on the thickness of the enclosure wall, based on the level of strength
required: For details, read chapter 3, "Panel Cut Dimensions" (see page 223).

z

Even if panel thickness is within recommended range for “Panel Cut
Dimensions”, the panel could warp, depending on panel’s material, size, and
installation location of GP unit or other devices. To prevent panel warpage, the
installation surface may need to be strengthened.

z

Check that the installation panel or cabinet's surface is flat, in good condition and
has no jagged edges.
Be sure that the surrounding air temperature and the ambient humidity are within
their designated ranges. Surrounding air temperature:
0 to 55 °C (32 to 131 °F)
ambient humidity: 10 to 90%RH; wet bulb temperature: maximum 39 °C (102 °F).
When installing the GP unit in a cabinet or enclosure, the surrounding air
temperature is the cabinet’s or enclosure’s internal temperature.

z

Be sure that heat from surrounding equipment does not cause the GP unit to
exceed its standard operating temperature.

z

When installing the GP unit vertically, install the GP unit so that the power supply
connector on the rear surface of the unit is at the top.
