Watlow Silver Series OIT Installation Guide

Installation of OITs

CE Compliance
The Silver Series EM Graphic OITs have been tested to conform to

European CE requirements, which meet or exceed the noise emissions

and immunity requirements as set forth in the EN55022 (Emissions) and

EN55024 (Immunity) standards. The products are designed to withstand

electrical noise in harsh industrial environments. They also conform to

requirements that limit electrical emissions. However, this does not

guarantee that the products will be totally immune from possible

malfunction in cases where severe electrical noise occurs. Therefore, we

strongly recommend that you follow the guidelines outlined in this guide

for proper wire routing and grounding to insure the proper operation of

your graphic OIT.

NEMA Rating
The Silver Series EM is rated for NEMA 4 (indoor) or IP65/IP66

installations. This means that when the OIT is properly mounted to a

NEMA 4 panel or other NEMA 4 rated enclosure, the front enclosure of

the OIT will provide protection to the inside of the panel from splashing

water, wind-blown dust, rain, or hose-directed water. The OIT must be

installed according to the instructions in this manual to be properly

sealed.

Environmental Considerations
The Silver Series EM is designed to operate in temperatures from 0° to

50°C (32° to 122°F). It is intended for indoor installations and may not

be suitable for use in certain outdoor applications. Avoid installing the

Silver Series EM touchscreens in environments with severe mechanical
