ASSEMBLY
The WPM Gateway is mounted on the press or in the immediate vicinity of the press or pressing
tool using a holder and at an easily visible, mechanically protected location.
Four M6 screws are used to attach it. The screw must be effectively secured against uninten-
tional loosening.
The WPM Gateway should be mounted so it is aligned horizontally and so the LED displays can
be seen easily.
The radio’s send direction is always indicated symbolically on the upper side (with the label “FI-
BRO”) of the WPM Gateway.
Cabling should go down and to the side. Use an angled M12 plug connector.
A large area around the radio send direction (labelled on the surface) must be kept free.
It should be possible to view the pressing tool without and hindrances.
The distance between the pressing tool (distance from the WPM Gateway to the WPM data
holder and the WPM pressure sensor) should not exceed 5 metres.

Constructive requirements
Ample space must be kept free around the WPM Gateway with the exception of the side where
it is attached.
The area of the WPM Gateway labelled with a radio symbol must not be near metallic surfaces
and must not come into direct contact with them.
For operation with radio technology, the data holder must be mounted so that the line of sight to
the corresponding WPM Gateway is unimpeded.
There must be a drain for liquids. The area around the WPM Gateway must not be flooded with
operating materials.
