2.1 Mounting Instructions
2.1.1 Location Considerations
Care should be taken when locating equipment behind the unit to ensure that AC power wiring, PLC
output modules, contactors, starters and relays, and any other source of electrical interference are located
away from the back of the unit.
Particular note should be taken to the position of variable speed drives and switching power supplies.
Their input and load cables should be screened to a central star earth point.
2.1.2 Making a NEMA-4 Mounting
Panel
The unit can be mounted into panels with a depth of 4"(105mm). It is recommended that
Details
the unit be mounted on the front panel of a steel enclosure, through an appropriate
opening*. Allow a clearance of 1"(25mm) around the sides of the unit for mounting
hardware. Allow clearance for cable connections to the back of the unit. Unit depth may
vary according to cable type used. Typically, plan a depth to accommodate at least
4"(105mm) behind the panel.
