Panel Preparation
A metal panel or mounting surface with a minimum thickness of 15

gauge (0.059 in/3.3 mm) if cold-rolled steel or hardened steel, or 10

gauge (0.101 in/2.6 mm) if aluminum alloy (6061-T6 preferred) is

required. Thinner panels or surfaces may bow between the mounting

clamps and not form a seal with the gasket. Make sure all supplied

mounting clamps are used and that the panel does not flex or bow more

than 0.010 in. to ensure a proper seal.

The OIT should be mounted into a panel with a depth of at least 4 in.

(105 mm). Allow a clearance of at least 1 in. (25 mm) on each side for

mounting hardware. Consider proper clearance for cable connections

when mounting.

NOTE: Cutout dimensions for each particular OIT model are readily

available for download from the Support Center-Dimensional Drawings
