Mounting Considerations

The following procedure is recommended when 

mounting the HFX series controllers. 

• 

Ideally the controller should be mounted on a 

vertical flat surface with the open end of the 

connector facing down.  

• 

Use four standard threaded fasteners to securely 

mount the controller to the surface (either 6mm or 

¼” diameter are acceptable). 

• 

Note that the HFX series is designed for ambient 

operating temperatures up to 105°C maximum. 

The housing is constructed of cast aluminum 

and it allows for effective heat dissipation when 

mounted to metal surfaces and/or when adequate 

ventilation is available. 

• 

When mounting multiple controllers inside a 

vented enclosure please allow for a minimum of 

2” between adjacent controller surfaces so that 

adequate air flow is present to aid in cooling. 

• 

When mounting a controller(s) inside a sealed 

unvented enclosure, it is important to note that 

the temperature rise above ambient is determined 

by the size of the enclosure (surface area) and the 

expected power dissipation of the controller(s). 

A conservative guideline to use for the maximum 

power dissipation expected from one HFX 

controller is 50 watts. 

• 

Please check with your enclosure manufacturer 

for appropriate guidelines concerning the 

necessary enclosure volume to adequately limit 

thermal rise below the maximum operating 

temperature of 105°C

13.3 

Recommended Wiring Practices

This section contains information about the controller 

connectors and pin outs. Please use the following 

recommended wiring practices when installing and 

using the controller:

• 

Ensure correct and adequate single point ground to 

prevent ground loops.

• 

Use twisted or twisted shielded pair cable for CAN 

per the applicable standard.

• 

Confirm that the CAN network is properly 

terminated using 120Ω resistors.

• 

Ensure the appropriate sized conductor cross 

section is specified for the intended load current in 

the harness design.

Note: Please review individual overcurrent shutdown values in 

the configuration and use the correct wire gauge conductor to 

accommodate maximum load current configured

• 

Make sure that voltage drops are kept within 

reasonable levels under maximum continuous load 

conditions e.g. 1 volt on 12-volt systems and 2 

volts on 24-volt systems.

• 

Verify that the harness is constructed to meet the 

needs of the application environment (e.g. shock, 

vibration, moisture, temperature, chemicals, and 

impact).

• 

Make certain that the harness is designed and 

constructed to minimize induced interference 

resulting from EMI coupling between signal wires.

• 

Separate power circuits from low-level signals.

• 

All splices (soldered or crimped) should use 

adhesive lined heat shrink tubing.

• 

Make provisions for drip loops to attach devices in 

exposed locations and prevent moisture entry and 

formation.

• 

Provide sufficient clearance from moving parts.
