APPENDIX D
IP52 INSTALLATION TIPS
1
Weather shield
The iPB4 device is IP52 rated, so additional protection against liquid ingress (especially rain)
and dust
will significantly extend your device’s lifespan.
2
Mounting the reader flush
When installing an iPB4, try to mount the reader flush with the mounting surface. Take special
care to ensure that liquids don’t seep in behind the reader and the surface or if it does, that
the liquid has a means of escape. Liquid getting in through the rear of the device is something
the device was not designed for, and will damage your device, and void your warranty.
3
Use rubber backing
If you are going to install the device outside, try to mount the device onto a rubber backing, or
use a piece of rubber to close the gap at the rear of the device.
4
Mount under cover
If a device is mounted without a weather shield, it is advisable to install where it is shielded
from the elements by a roof, overhang or similar to protect it from as many environmental
factors as possible.
5
Do not wash the device
When cleaning your device, wipe it down with a dry or damp (not wet) cloth. Pressure washers,
hoses and the like will more than likely damage the device and should be avoided. The reader
should be installed out of reach of sprinklers.
