MECHANICAL INSTALLATION

4 TPPR Mechanical Installation

Mechanical installation consists of physically mounting the TPPR Enclosure on a wall or, for floor mounted enclosures, on a
suitable plinth, and then fixing cable trays in appropriate locations. Electrical Installation is covered in the next chapter.

4.1 TPPR Siting Considerations

TPPR can be installed in a wide range of wall floor and rack mounted enclosures but you should always consider the
following when choosing locations:
TPPR is specified for operation in ambient temperatures from -20°C to +55°C (TPPR Controller) or -40°C to +65°C
(no Controller). However the upper ambient temperature may be reduced dependent on the type and quantity of
installed components. It is the user's responsibility to check the equipment rating plates for the true ambient range of
the installation as operation outside of this temperature range invalidates the warranty and certification.
All enclosures and racks have individual Ingress Protection and type ratings. It is the user's responsibility to check
individual rating plates for requirements.
Only Zone 2 Div. 2 and Remote enclosures can be installed outside in unprotected locations. See Ch.20 TPPR
Specifications for further details.
TPPR enclosures shall be protected from direct sunlight where exposure could cause the unit temperature to rise
beyond the specified operating limits, or where UV light could damage the Controller's membrane or Touch screen. It
is the installer's responsibility to ensure that the unit temperature does not rise beyond the specified operating limits.
The TPPR wall mounted enclosure shall be installed only on a vertical surface and floor mounted enclosures shall be
installed only on a suitable weight-bearing plinth. Use the mounting fixtures supplied with the apparatus plus any
specialist fixtures determined by the location, and follow the installation instructions carefully.
The mounting surface should be flat, and strong enough to bear the weight of the TPPR system. Solid brick type
construction is recommended, while drywall / plasterboard, dry lined or timber framed type construction is not
considered to be a suitable structural material unless appropriately reinforced. Take account of the contents and
external cabling in addition to the weight of the wall mounted enclosure itself (check maximum enclosure weights detailed in
the next section).
There must be sufficient clearance to mount the wall mounted enclosure and be able to fully open the door. A
minimum clearance of 100 mm all round plus space for cable entries is required. The door hinge is on the left side.
Beware of proximity to entries, exits and sloping ceilings.
If more than one enclosure is to be used, ensure that there is sufficient clearance between the enclosures for cable
glands, mounting, cooling, door opening etc. This applies especially when mounting the backup battery
enclosure beneath the TPPR Controller Enclosure.
Ensure that the TPPR interface and touch screen can be freely viewed and reached. A wall enclosure touch screen
height of approximately 1.5 m is recommended for comfort, but the height of a floor mounted enclosure will be
determined by the enclosure size and height of the plinth.
Beware of siting TPPR in vehicle movement areas as personal injury may result. Erect safety barriers if this is
unavoidable.
TPPR conforms to the requirements of European and other standards for EMC and RFI. It should not be installed in
close proximity to the antennae of high power radio, radar and satellite communication equipment, or in the vicinity of
high voltage switching gear or overhead power lines.
All signal cables should be shielded and bonded to protect them from stray or induced current.
