TM: TC - Hardware Installation Installation Unpacking and checking the delivery contents Unpacking • Check the packaging of the TC for transport damages. • Remove the packaging carefully in order to avoid damages. Save the original packaging for a possible new transportation of the TC. Keep also the supplied documents.
• Provide sufficient volume for the air exchange in control cabinet/panel. The free space around the TC must be at least 50 mm, at the rear side a free space of 20 mm is permissible. Example: TC12-B The following is valid correspondingly for other built-in versions.
The vertical installation as well as deviations up to ± 30° in the below indicated directions are permitted. For deviations from vertical installation it is to be considered that no accumulation of heat arises in the interior of the housing. Example: TC12-S [Stand-Alone] The following is valid correspondingly for all versions. +30° –30°...
Sealing on the back side is not interrupted and goes round the border of the plate: Round-cord of sponge rubber, Ø 3 mm, stuck in a groove with milling depth of 2 mm. Example: TC12-B The following is valid correspondingly for other built-in versions.
• Attach the housing coupling to the adapter plate. • Screw on the adapter plate with mounted equipment flange on the rear-mounted part of housing. Example: TC12-S The following is valid correspondingly for other add-on versions. Rear-mounted part of housing...
