  • Page 16 Construction 22. Mounting the sub PCB support q Mount four 2cm (0.8”) M3 spacers at the indi- cated positions using four 6mm (0.23”) M3 screws.
  • Page 17 Enclosure preparation 23. Enclosure preparation q Cut the thread in the holes for the en- closure feet in one of the aluminum profiles, using the supplied special M4 screw as a tap. FIG. 1 q Cut the thread in the front and back of the aluminum profiles, using the supplied special M4 screw (4 holes per piece)
  • Page 18 Enclosure preparation q Position the main PCB in the aluminum profile that is pre- pared with the feet. FIG. 5 Align pcb with profile ! q Mark the center position of the three fixation holes on the aluminum.
  • Page 19 Enclosure preparation q Remove the pcb and use a knife or a screwdriver to scratch the paint from the alu- minum fixation, from the hole closest to the back end. This fixation will be used later to connect the ground and earth.
  • Page 20 Final assembly 24. Potentiometer assembly and final PCB mount q Mount the PCB into the enclosure like before. Tip: Check if the pcb does not have to much play at the potentiometer posi- Play? tion. If there is too much play, put a piece of tape round the edge of the pcb to remove the slack.
  • Page 21 Final assembly q Now carefully mount the front panel, us- ing two M4 Allen screws. Check the posi- tion of the LED’s. q Check if the potentiometer turns smoothly without touching the front panel, other- wise correct his position or the position of the front panel.
  • Page 22 Final assembly 25. Final assembly and connection Mounting the voltage regulator: q VR1: 7812 (isolated plastic type) First bend his leads like in the drawing Then mount him onto the previously in- serted hexagonal screw, at the appropri- ate position according to the PCB. Use a 5mm spacer screw.
  • Page 23 Test q Connect the mains wires to the mains connector, Blue= Neutral, Brown= Live, and green/yellow= Earth. Use a piece of 1.5cm (0.6”) shrink tube to isolate each connec- tion. FIG. 4 q Mount the front panel onto the front, using two M4 Allen screws.
