Installation

Disconnect power prior to installation.
Reinstall any covers that are displaced during the installation before powering the unit.
Mount the meter in an appropriate electrical enclosure near equipment to be monitored.

Do not install on the load side of a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD), aka Variable Speed Drive (VSD) 

or Adjustable Frequency Drive (AFD).

The meter can be mounted in two ways:  on standard 35 mm DIN rail or screw-mounted to the interior surface of the enclosure. 

A.  DIN Rail Mounting

1.  Attach the mounting clips to the underside of the housing by sliding them into the slots from the inside. The stopping pegs 

must face the housing, and the outside edge of the clip must be flush with the outside edge of the housing.

2.  Snap the clips onto the DIN rail. See the diagram of the underside of the housing (below).

Insert clips from inside

3.  To reduce horizontal shifting across the DIN rail, use two Veris AV02 end stop clips. 

B.  Screw Mounting

1.  Attach the mounting clips to the underside of the housing by sliding them into the slots from the outside. The stopping pegs 

must face the housing, and the screw hole must be exposed on the outside of the housing.

2.  Use three #8 screws (not supplied) to mount the meter to the inside of the enclosure. See the diagram of the underside of the 

housing (below).
