Mier’s Temperature Controlled Enclosures are completely sealed with no knockouts or holes in the enclosure other than those for 

mounting the AC unit.  When installed correctly with the AC unit

 

they meet NEMA 4 standards and may be used either indoors or outdoors, 

and provide a degree of protection to personnel against incidental contact with the enclosed equipment, and they provide a degree of protection for 

the equipment within from windblown dust, splashing water, hose-directed water, rain, sleet, snow, ice, & dirt.

• This enclosure is properly installed when the top & bottom mounting ears are flush against the wall or mounting struts, and held securely with       

   appropriate bolts, and the hinges face to the 

left

 after the enclosure has been mounted

• Watertight fittings must be used on all openings created by the installer.  The door-gasket provided around the opening of the enclosure must remain 

   in place and never be removed.

• The AC/Heater unit must be mounted with the provided gaskets installed between the AC/Heater unit and the enclosure, using the appropriate pre-

   cut holes on the enclosure, and strictly following the unit’s OEM installation guidelines.  Once attached, these AC/Heater gaskets must also remain in 

   place and never be removed

• The tamper switch should be mounted on the studs at the top of the enclosure

Mier Products’ Temperature Controlled Enclosures

Installation and Warranty Information

Power:

Once installed correctly, the power cords for the AC unit and the heater are within the enclosure.  Thus, the installer/electrician is responsible for get-

ting power inside the enclosure.  

It is up to the installer to cut, 

and properly install with water-tight fittings

, any holes needed to run power within or 

run cables out of these enclosures.  

Both the AC unit and the heater get their 

power

 from 

AC 115V, 60hz

.  Mier recommends the installer/electrician run power into the box 

via flexible or 

rigid conduit, with water-tight fittings, to outlet boxes mounted within the enclosure

.  

Wiring:

 use #12 AWG  standard house wiring to a quad outlet box

Connection:

 

the AC/Heater unit has a standard 3-prong NEMA 5-15P plug and the tamper switch connects to the standard low-voltage alarm circuit.
