Installing The Optional Metal Rough-In Box; Other Mvp-Wcs-52 Installations - AMX MVP-5200i-GB Instruction Manual

Installing the Optional Metal Rough-In Box

The optional metal rough-in box (FG037-11) is 10 inches (25.40cm) wide at its widest dimension (wider than the bezel of the Wall
Charging Station), and is only intended for pre construction installations (FIG. 14).
The Metal Rough-In Box is used in conjunction with the Wall Charging Station's plastic back box.

The Metal Rough-In Box must be located behind 3/8" (0.95cm) to 3/4" (1.91cm) of wall/mounting surface material.

Install front surface of box
flush with surface of wall stud
Typical metal Rough-In Box Installation
FIG. 14
The Metal Rough-in Box bears a wing on each corner which is intended to bridge gaps between studs and/or spacers. These wings
may be bent carefully in order to fit a particular gap, but may not be so bent as to allow the box to hang in a vertical position. Once
placed in the desired position, put at least one screw through each wing into the adjoining stud or spacer to secure it.
The interior of the box contains a set of holes on either side, as well as top and bottom, for standard 1/4-inch screws. Use these
holes to anchor the box to its adjoining studs or spacers.
NOTE: Ensure that the metal rough-in box is flush with the 2x4 studs. Any overhang will affect the installation of the covering
sheetrock, as well as affect the placement of the Plastic Back Box.
The box has two sets of knockouts in the top and bottom, one of the set for US wiring and one for international wiring.
NOTE: Make sure that the power cable has been pulled through the metal rough-in box by the resident electrician before continuing
the installation.
After completing the installation of the metal rough-in box, install sheet rock or other wall material over the box, cut a hole
matching the size of the inside diameter in the sheet rock, and clean out all dust before proceeding with the installation of the
plastic back box.

Other MVP-WCS-52 installations

The Wall-Mounted Charging Station is designed to be installed in various different locations, such as into the face of a wooden
podium or the top of a table. Depending upon the ability to wire it to a power source, Wall-Mounted Charging Stations may be
installed on vertical or horizontal surfaces composed of such materials as wood, brick, and glass.
Installing a Wall-Mounted Charging Station into a solid wall thicker than a standard thickness of sheetrock is possible, but requires
special preparation. If installing into a solid wall of concrete or rock, a recess must be chiselled or cut out to match the size of the
device. The box is sized 8.375 inches (21.27cm) long and 5.75 inches (14.60cm) high, so the hole should be at least 1/4" (0.64cm)
smaller in these dimensions. To facilitate the full range of movement of the device's components, the recess must be at least 2.69
inches (6.83cm) deep.
NOTE: Ensure that the power cable has been installed in the wall and is accessible by the installer before chiseling out the recess.
NOTE: Instead of using the lockdown wings to secure the Plastic Back Box, standard concrete screws may be inserted through the
screw holes after removing the lockdown wings. However, drill the concrete screw holes into the wall before setting the screws into the
box, as excessive torque applied to the screws will damage the box. To avoid this, the box may be installed with adhesive. Test an
unobtrusive spot on the back of the box with a sample of the adhesive to check for any adverse reactions before installing the device.
