Panel Mounting Guidelines
Observe these guidelines when installing the computer in a panel:
•
Remove all electrical power from the panel before making the cutout.
•
Confirm that there is adequate space behind the panel. For specific
information, refer to
Mounting Clearance Requirements
•
Cut supporting panels to specifications before installation. Take precautions
so metal cuttings do not enter components already installed in panel.
Supporting panels must be at least 14 gauge for proper sealing against water
and dust and to provide proper support. The mounting hardware supplied
accommodates panel thickness between 1.5…5.5 mm (0.06…0.22 in.).
•
Make sure the area around the panel cutout is clear.
•
Certain restrictions apply when mounting a display computer in a panel.
See
for details.
