3.5.1

 

Fastening of the XTH model 

First fix the mounting bracket (26) supplied with the device using 2 Ø < 6-8 mm >screws**. 
Then hang the Xtender on the bracket. Fasten the unit permanently using 2 Ø <6-8 mm> screws** on 
to the two notches located at the underside of the case. 
Dimensions of the appliances are given on Fig 2a of the appendix 1. 

 

3.5.2

 

Fastening of the XTM model 

First fasten the top screw (6-8mm **) without washer on a solid wall (concrete or metallic wall) up to 
a distance of 2mm between head and wall. Hang the device from the screw. If deemed necessary, 
the  upper  support  screw  can  be  fully  tightened  after  hanging  the  device.  In  theory,  this  is  only 
necessary in mobile applications. To access the upper support screw to fully tighten it, remove the 
upper plastic grate (see 27 fig. 2a of the appendix). 
Dismount the lower plastic grate of the device giving access to the wiring compartment. Carefully 
fix the device with two screws (Ø 6-8 mm) in the two holes located at the bottom left and right of the 
wiring compartment. 
If the Xtender is installed in a closed cabinet this must have sufficient ventilation to guarantee an 
ambient temperature that conforms to the operation of the Xtender.  
**: 

These items are not delivered with the device.

 

 

 

It is imperative to ensure complete and safe fastening of the device. A device that is simply 
hung may detach and cause severe damage. 

 

3.5.3

 

Fastening of the XTS model  

The XTS enclosure must be first mounted on the support plate with 
the 4 screws and washer delivered with the appliance according 
with  figure  aside.  Then  the  unit  can  be  fixed  on  a  heavy-duty 
support (concrete or metallic wall) and positioned vertically with 
cable glands oriented down. An external ventilation unit (ECF-01, 
p.  37)  can  be  installed  on  top  of  the  unit  before  or  after  wall 
mounting. 
 
  

 
 

 
 

 

 

A distance of at least 20 cm in between and/or around the XTH devices is required in order 
to guarantee sufficient ventilation.    

 

The envelope of the XTS can reach temperatures higher 
than  60°C

  when  used  for  a  long  period  near  its  max 

power  level.  These  high  temperatures  may  remain 
present during several tens of minutes after stopping the 
unit. It is recommended to choose a place of installation 
in a restricted access area, away from children or any 
unauthorized person.
