Installation
This section describes the procedures and precautions for installing the ST Series units.
Check the Installation Gasket’s Seating
It is strongly recommended that you use the installation gasket, since it absorbs vibration in addition to
repelling water.
For the procedure for attaching the installation gasket, refer to “5.3 Replacing the Installation Gasket”.
Creating a Panel Cut
Create the correct sized opening required to install the ST, using the installation dimensions given.
Determine the panel thickness according to the panel thickness range with due consideration of panel strength.
SEE
5.3 Replacing the Installation Gasket (page 5-4)
• Before installing the ST into a cabinet or panel, check that the installation gasket
is securely attached to the unit.
• A gasket which has been used for a long period of time may have scratches or
dirt on it, and could have lost much of its dust and drip resistance. Be sure to
change the gasket periodically (or when scratches or dirt become visible).

Panel Cut Dimensions (page 3-13)
•
Check that the installation panel or cabinet’s surface is flat, in good condition and has no
jagged edges. Also, if desired, metal reinforcing strips can be attached to the inside of the
panel, near the Panel Cut, to increase the panel’s strength.
