Wireless CAN Bridge 500 (CB-500)
Matric Technical Manual 185-0053, V8
Page 9 of 12
INSTALLATION:
The Wireless CAN Bridge can be bolted directly to a control panel, or mounted to a DIN
rail. Remove the two decorative covers at the right and left ends of the lid to access the
mounting holes for direct panel mount (or to attach the DIN rail clips). See the
Configuration section for instruction on removing the decorative covers.
Use adequate material and fasteners when panel mounting the CAN Bridge unit with
consideration to any vibration or shock the unit may experience. Suggested
specifications are listed below.
Panel Fastener
1/2 inch plywood
5/8 x #8 wood screw
1/8 inch aluminum
10-32 machine screw to threaded hole or bolt
1/2 inch plaster board
Wall anchor with #6 machine screw
CAUTION: Many types of threadlock will weaken the plastic enclosure of the CAN
Bridge. Instead, use lock washers, or a threadlock that will not damage plastic (such as
Premabond MM115) to secure mounting screws. Do not over-torque panel mounting
screws. Use washers between the CAN Bridge and panel to protect the enclosure and
provide a solid base for tightening mounting screws.
A DIN rail mounting kit is included for attaching the Wireless CAN Bridge to either EN
50-022 or EN 50-035 DIN rails. The DIN rail mounts are attached to the same holes
used for panel mounting.
