The battery pack is removed because battery construction does not meet hazardous location
requirements.
Do not install the battery (AIR-1520-BATT-6AH=) in the AIR-CAP1552H-x-K9 access point.
The AC power connections are moved to the inside of the access point by installing an AC entry
board containing a terminal block. To comply with hazardous location requirements, AC power must
be installed through rigid metal conduit to the terminal block.
Do not use any form of sealant or gasket material when joining conduit components.
The electrical rating for hazardous location installations has a lower voltage rating (100-240
VAC, 50/60 Hz, 1A) than a non-hazardous location installation (100-480 VAC).
To provide a proper seal, threaded conduit must be used to route the power and data cabling to
the access point.
Two PG13 - 1/2 NPT adapters are provided. The adapters connect the conduit to the AC power port
and Ethernet backhaul port of the access point.
When used in hazardous locations, the access point is rated 100 to 240 VAC only.
