Installation

Mounting the MLS-AIM

This section contains mounting instructions and diagrams for the MLS-
AIM.

NOTE

If you plan to install scaling resistors, mount them
on the AIM-TB before you mount the AIM-TB in
the panel. (If you mount the AIM-TB in the panel
before you mount the scaling resistors on it, you
will have to remove the AIM-TB from the panel to
install the scaling resistors.)

If you ordered an MLS-AIM-TB with scaling
inputs from Watlow-Anafaze, the scaling resistors
are already installed.

Mounting Environment

Install the MLS-AIM in a location free from excessive (>50

º

C) heat,

dust, and unauthorized handling.

The MLS-AIM measures 6.5" x 5" x 7" (165 x 127 x 178 mm). Leave 6"
of clearance above the MLS-AIM, so you can remove the entire unit (or
just the AIM cards) if necessary.

The figure on the next page shows an overhead view of the AIM-TB and
MUX cards, with dimensions, scaling resistor locations and hole
locations. It also shows the AIM communications port and the insertion
of the MUX cards in the AIM Terminal Block.
