Rockwell Automation Publication 800G-IN005A-EN-P - May 2018

Bulletin 800G Assembled Stations

Use in areas other than those areas specified or the modification of the 
product by anyone other than the manufacturer is not permitted and 
exempts Rockwell Automation from liability for defects and any 
further liability.

The applicable statutory rules and other binding directives that relate 
to workplace safety, accident prevention, and environmental 
protection must be observed.

Before you commission or restart operation, check compliance with all 
applicable laws and directives.

All enclosures, front-of-panel operators, and back-of-panel modules 
can be used only if they are in a clean, undamaged condition. Do not 
modify these components in any way.

Standards Conformed To

Assemble, Install, and Commission

• Only qualified personnel are allowed to assemble, disassemble, 

install, and commission the device.

• Protect devices against mechanical damage or electrostatic 

discharge.

• Use suitable tools for installation. Do not modify the 

assembled station or components in any way.

• Use cable that is rated with an appropriate temperature range 

suitable for the application.

• IEC/EN 60079-17 must be observed.

Installation and Removal

Protective Earthing Components

For metal cable glands, follow these steps:

1. Position the earth plate 

where the metal cable 
gland is installed (top 
or bottom).

2. Install the earth plate 

between the rib and 
inside wall of the 
enclosure.

3. Open the terminal cages of the earth plate and insert the 

conductors.

4. Tighten the earth plate terminals to a torque range of 

0.7…1.0 N·m (6…9 lb·in).

For plastic cable glands, follow these steps:

\

1. Position the earth 

bracket where the 
plastic cable gland is 
installed (top or 
bottom).

2. Install the earth 

bracket between the 
rib and inside wall of 
the enclosure.

3. Open the terminal cages of the earth bracket and insert the 

conductors.

4. Tighten the earth bracket terminals to a torque range of 

0.7…1.0 N·m (6…9 lb·in).

Contact Blocks and Power Modules

To install contact blocks and power modules, follow these steps:

1. Align the notch of the component with the cut-out in the 

enclosure rail.

2. Snap the contact block or power module onto the rail of the 

enclosure.

3. Check that the component is secured to the enclosure rail.

To remove contact blocks and power modules, follow these steps:

1. Position a screwdriver inside of the black tab at the base of the 

component.

2. Gently pull the black tab in a direction away from the 

enclosure rail.

3. Lift up on the component to remove it from the enclosure rail.

Wiring Contact Blocks and Power Modules

Take care when following these steps to connect cable to contact blocks 
or power modules:

1. Strip 40 mm 

(1.575 in.) of 
sheath off the 
cable.

2. Remove 

approximately 
6 mm (.236 in.) 
of insulation 
from the 
conductors.

3. Prepare the ends of the fine-stranded and multi-stranded 

conductors. Crimp wire end sleeves with a suitable crimp tool. 
Suitable connection cross-sections are 0.75…2.5 mm2 
(18…14 AWG).

4. Open terminal cage and insert conductors.

5. Tighten the terminals to a torque range of 0.4…0.7 N·m 

(3.5…6.2 lb·in).
