Unison Enclosure Installation

Installation Environment Requirements

For your safety, you should install a main circuit breaker cabinet or other readily
accessible input power disconnect device in the same area as the Unison auxiliary
enclosure. For bussed enclosure installations, this device may be the auxiliary
enclosure. Main breakers not in the same room must have a physical means to be
locked off.

A clean (not dusty) temperature-controlled environment with an ambient temperature
of 32 to 104°F (0 to 40°C) and ambient humidity of 10 to 90%, non-condensing.

Restricted public access to prevent tampering.

Soundproofing or performance area separation to muffle ventilation fan noise.

Wire Routing and Specification

Unison AX series enclosures have conduit knockouts on both sides of the cabinet for feed

through to the adjacent DRd enclosure(s). The top and bottom are intentionally left blank to

allow holes to be punched to match the incoming conduit.

N o t e :

Before removing dimmer or control modules for service, de-energize the main

feed to the dimmer rack and follow appropriate Lockout and Tagout procedures

as described in NFPA Standard 70E. It is important to note that electrical

equipment such as dimmer enclosures can present an arc flash safety hazard if

improperly serviced. This is due to available large Short Circuit Currents on the

feeders of the equipment. Any work on energized equipment must comply with

OSHA Electrical Safe Working Practices.

C A U T I O N :

HVAC systems must at all times maintain the specified ambient temperature at the

enclosure. Unison systems operating within 10°F (5°C) of the upper or lower

temperature limits must strictly follow installation and operation guidelines to

operate reliably.

C A U T I O N :

Do not route line (input feed) wires through the back panel. Doing so requires bend

radii that place undue stress on the input lugs, may damage insulation, and will

violate the UL listing of this enclosure.

C A U T I O N :

Line (feed) lugs for the Unison AX main circuit breaker enclosures are UL/cUL

listed for use with both copper and aluminum wire, while the main lug enclosures

are listed for copper wire only. Load side terminations used to feed the DRd

enclosures must be the included extra flexible copper wire.
