5. MOUNTING THE SRF
Before mounting the SRF, refer to Table 4
(weights and dimensions on last page of this
manual) which provides dimensions and unit
weights. Ensure that appropriate lifting
equipment is used when installing the larger
SRFs. When installing the SRF, consideration
should be given to future service needs.
Ensure that a clear view of the status
indicators is provided. The SRFs should be
mounted away from other electrical
apparatus (300 mm minimum) and in a
position that avoids close proximity to
combustible materials.
TSG-SRFs of 630A capacity and smaller are
designed to be wall mounted. Mounting
brackets (as shown in Figure 9) are supplied.
Larger units are anchored through holes
provided in the rear of the SRF enclosure.
The cabling and upstream over-current
protection requirements and all instructions
provided in this manual, should be taken into
consideration before mounting the SRF.
• To preserve the IP rating, TSG-SRF units
from 40A to 200A must be installed in
accordance with Figure 9 and Section 6.2.
• Larger SRF units from, 400A to 2000A
are ventilated and should be mounted in
a dust and moisture-free, ventilated
environment.
• All TSG-SRFs should be installed in a dry,
well-ventilated area. Avoid sites subject to
moisture ingress.
• SRFs are not intended for use in harsh or
corrosive environments.
Where the SRF is to be enclosed in a
switchboard cubicle, models are available
without the proprietary enclosure. These
backplane units are denoted by the model
number suffix ’BP’.
