Installing a Robot Controller in a Rack or Panel

An MV-5 or MV-10 robot controller can be mounted in a rack or panel by using
the mounting brackets that are shipped in the accessories kit. The brackets can be
attached at the rear of the controller for panel mounting or they can be attached to
the front of the controller for rack mounting.
The Compact Controller installs with the PA4 chassis. See the robot instruction
handbook for your robot system for details on installing the PA4 chassis.


To maintain compliance with
EN 60204 in European installations, the mounting of the controller
and all terminations at the controller must be performed in
accordance with this standard.

Space Around the Chassis

When the robot controller is installed, you must allow 25 mm (1 inch) at the top
and bottom of the chassis for proper air cooling. You must also allow 75 mm (3
inches) at the front of the chassis for power and signal cable clearance.
