2.1 Mounting Instructions

2.1.1 Location Considerations

Care should be taken when locating equipment behind the unit to ensure

that AC power wiring, PLC output modules, contactors, starters and relays,

and any other source of electrical interference are located away from the

back of the unit.

Particular note should be taken to the position of variable speed drives and

switching power supplies. Their input and load cables should be screened

to a central star earth point.

2.1.2 Making a NEMA-4 Mounting

The unit can be mounted into panels with a depth of

4”(105mm). It is recommended that the unit be mounted

on the front panel of a steel enclosure, through an

appropriate opening*. Allow a clearance of 1”(25mm)

around the sides of the unit for mounting hardware. Allow

clearance for cable connections to the back of the unit. Unit

depth may vary according to cable type used. Typically,

plan a depth to accommodate at least 4”(105mm) behind

the panel.

Panel Details

Put the unit through the panel cut out. Slide the clamps

into the 6 holes provided around the case. Tighten the

clamping screws in an even pattern until
