•
Depending on the housing model cut off necessary cable inlets respectively to the cable
diameter. Or alternative use cable inlet for cable glands. Metal sheet housings are supplied with
stoppers. Any cable ducts openings not used must be sealed!
•
Care must be taken to avoid direct radiation from the sun!
•
The device is designed for vertical installation (cable inlet down). A horizontal or reclined
installation is only permissible after technical release of the manufacturer!
•
Be sure to observe proper heat dissipation (
Technical data, heat dissipation).
4.2
Minimum space requirement
In order to ensure suf
fi
cient ventilation of the device, clearance on all sides of at least 50 mm has to
be maintained to the housing walls, switch cabinet doors, wiring ducts, etc. The same clearance
applies to the installation of several devices next to each other.
When installing several devices on top of each other, the danger of reciprocal heating exists. This
layout is only then permissible when the air suctioned from the upper unit does not become warmer
than the permissible ambient temperature (
Technical data). I.e., a correspondingly larger clearance
or thermal shielding is required.
4.3
Outdoor installation
Outdoor installation is possible up to -20
°
C when the controller supply is not switched off. Installation
must be protected from the effects of weather as much as possible, including protection from direct
sunlight!
4.4
Installation location for agriculture
In order to avoid damage caused by ammoniac vapours, the controller shall not be installed in the
stable, but rather in an outhouse wherever possible.
4.5
Temperature in
fl
uences during commissioning
Avoid condensation in the controller and functional faults attributable to condensation by storing the
controller at room temperature!
