Chapter 2 Installation
Panel Mounting Guidelines
Observe these guidelines when installing the monitor in a panel:
•
Included with the monitor is Industrial Monitors Cutout Template,
publication
6186M-DS001 , with a cutout template for each monitor
model. Panel cutout dimensions are also listed in Table 1 on page 15 .
•
Cut supporting panels to specifications before installation. Take precautions
so metal cuttings do not enter components already installed in the panel.
•
Supporting panels must be at least 14 gauge to be sure of proper sealing
against water and dust and to provide proper support. The mounting
hardware supplied accommodates panels up to 6.25 mm (0.25 in.) thick.
Mount the Monitor in a Panel
Follow these steps to mount the monitor in a panel.
1.
Cut the panel opening using the appropriate cutout dimensions.
2.
Attach cables to the monitor before installing if rear access to the monitor
is limited after installation.
See Monitor Connections on page 19 for where to attach cables.
3.
Verify that the sealing gasket is properly positioned on the monitor.
This gasket forms a compression-type seal. Do not use sealing compounds.
4.
Place the monitor in the panel cutout.
5.
Slide the mounting clips into the slots on the top, bottom, and sides of the
monitor.
6.
Hand-tighten the clips in the sequence shown in Figure 1 until the gasket
is compressed uniformly against the panel.

ATTENTION: Failure to follow these guidelines may result in personal
injury or damage to the panel components.
