Installation of switchgear
10
•
Pack the switchgear in dustproof and watertight packaging.
•
Maintain storage temperature: -30 ... +60 °C, max. relative humidity: 90%, non-con-
densing.
•
Frost-proof storage at a temperature of 10 °C to 25 °C with relative humidity of
40 ... 50% is recommended.
•
Avoid the formation of condensation at all times.
•
All open threaded cable glands must be sealed to prevent water ingress into the hous-
ing.
•
Attached cables should be protected against kinking, damage, and ingress of moisture.
•
To prevent damage to the components, protect the switchgear from direct sunlight and
heat.
•
Clean the switchgear after storage.
•
If there has been water ingress or condensation has formed, have all the electronic com-
ponents tested for correct function. Contact customer service.
•
Check the switchgear for damage caused during transport. Do not install defective
switchgears!
•
Observe the local guidelines for the design and operation of electronic controls.
•
Electrical work: qualified electrician
Person with appropriate technical training, knowledge and experience who can identify
and prevent electrical hazards.
•
Installation/dismantling work: qualified electrician
Knowledge regarding tools and fixation material for various structures
•
Wall fixation
•
The installation location is clean, dry and free of vibration.
•
The installation location is overflow-proof.
•
The switchgear is not exposed to direct sunlight.
•
Installation location outside of potentially explosive atmospheres.
•
The connection cable and required accessories should be provided by the customer.
•
While laying the cable, ensure that there is no tension, no kinking and no pinching that
could damage the cable.
•
Check the cable cross-section and length for the routing type chosen.
•
Seal unused threaded cable glands.
•
Ensure that the following ambient conditions are adhered to:
–
Ambient/operating temperature: 0 ... 40 °C
–
Relative humidity: 40 ... 50%
–
Max. relative humidity: 90%, non-condensing
Various structures can be used for installation (concrete wall, mounting rail, etc.). For this
reason, the fixation material for the relevant construction must be provided by the cus-
tomer and the following information must be observed:
•
To prevent cracks in the masonry and chipping of the construction material, ensure suf-
ficient clearance to the edge of the structure.
•
The depth of the borehole depends on the length of the screws. Drill the borehole ap-
prox. 5 mm deeper than the screw length.
•
Drilling dust impairs retention force. Always blow the borehole clean or vacuum it out.
•
Do not damage the housing during installation.
Screw sizes for plastic housing
•
Max. screw diameter: 4 mm
•
Max. screw head diameter: 7 mm
Installation
Attach the switchgear to the wall with four screws and wall plugs:
✓
Switchgear is disconnected from the mains supply and is voltage-free.
1.
Loosen the screws on the cover and open the cover/switch cabinet door from the side.
2.
Align the switchgear on the installation site and mark the position for the drill holes.
3.
Drill and clean the mounting holes in accordance with the specifications of the fixation
material.
