3.6.5 Noise
Consider the impact on the panel layout design and clearance requirements if noise
suppression devices are needed. Be sure to maintain an adequate distance between the EXL6
OCS and noisy devices such as relays, motor starters, etc.
For details on output protection, especially when using contactors, solenoids, etc. see
MAN0962.
3.6.6 Shock and Vibration
The EXL6 OCS has been designed to operate in typical industrial environments that may inflict
some shock and vibration on the unit. For applications that may inflict excessive shock and
vibration please use proper dampening techniques or relocate the EXL6 OCS to a location that
minimizes shock and/or vibration.
3.6.7 Panel Layout Design and Clearance Checklist
The following list provides highlights of panel layout design factors:
Meets the electrical code and applicable standards for proper grounding, etc.?
Meets the panel manufacturer’s requirements for grounding, etc.?
Is the panel box properly connected to earth ground? Is the panel door properly
grounded? Has the appropriate procedure been followed to properly ground the
devices in the panel box and on the panel door?
Are minimum clearance requirements met? Can the panel door be easily opened
and closed? Is there adequate space between device bases as well as the sides of
the panel and wiring ducts?
Is the panel box deep enough to accommodate the EXL6 OCS?
Is there adequate ventilation? Is the ambient temperature range maintained? Are
cooling or heating devices required?
Are noise suppression devices or isolation transformers required? Is there
adequate distance between the base of the EXL6 OCS and noisy devices such as
relays or motor starters? Ensure that power and signal wires are not routed in the
same conduit.
Are there other requirements that impact the particular system, which need to be
considered?
