2-6 Installation

Installing your Monitor
in a Panel

Panel mount monitors are designed to provide protection against water and
dust to NEMA Types 1/12/4X (indoor use only) (IP65/IP53 equivalent)
standards.

Slides or shelves are not required because the panel mount monitor is designed
to be supported by the panel in which it is installed.

Tools Needed for Panel Mount Installation

In addition to the tools required to make the panel cutout, you will need the
following tools:

• 3/8 in deep well socket
• 1/4 in drive extension - 6" or longer
• 1/4 in drive ratchet or 1/4" drive torque ratchet

Panel Mounting Guidelines

Observe the following precautions when installing the unit in a panel:

• Confirm that there is adequate space behind the panel.

Allow at least 1.0 in (26mm) on the sides and bottom and 2.0 in

(51mm) on the top ventilation.

A cabinet with a minimum depth of 2.9 in (74mm) is sufficient.

• Take precautions so that metal cuttings do not enter any components

that are already installed in the panel.

• Supporting panels should be at least 14 gauge to ensure proper sealing

against water and dust and to provide proper support. The mounting
hardware supplied accommodates panels up to 0.25 in (6.35 mm) thick.

IMPORTANT

Supporting panels must be cut and drilled to specifications
before installation.

ATTENTION

!

Failure to follow these warnings may result in personal
injury or damage to the panel components.
