all cables and cores should be correctly identified. Please refer to the wiring diagram provided with the product.
Ensure that only the correct listed or certified cable glands are used and that the assembly is shrouded and correctly earthed.
All cable glands should be of an equivalent NEMA/IP rating to that of the manual call point and integrated with the unit such
that this rating is maintained.
The internal earth terminal must be used for the equipment grounding connection and the external terminal is for a supplementary
bonding connection where local codes or authorities permit or require such a connection.
Once termination is complete, carefully push the cover assembly back onto the base avoiding damage to the mating surfaces.
Ensure that the retaining strap is not trapped between the mating surfaces and that the o-ring is correctly seated in its groove.
Ensure the retaining strap and wires are clear of the microswitch actuator and operating mechanism. Replace the 4 off M6
screws (5.0mm A/F hexagon key) into the holes in the cover assembly and tighten evenly. Ensure the maximum gap of 0.15mm
is maintained between the cover and the base once assembled.
