2. Boot-sealed and side-mounting switches use sealing wash
-
ers under screw heads on the sides between switch and
mounting surface on other side to maintain seal.
3. Unsealed, side mounting switches: Use lockwashers under
screw heads on one side; under nut on other side.
4. Connect conduit to conduit opening. Apply conduit sealing if
required by application.
INSTALLATION TIPS
1.
Do not lubricate any internal part of the switch.
The inter-
nal switch does not require any additional lubrication
2. When installing the switch, ensure
that it is not the low
point in the conduit run
. Doing so will ensure that con-
densation created in the conduit will not flow into the switch
housing.
3.
Do not enlarge the mounting holes on side mounting
switch
. Doing so will compromise the internal switching ele-
ment’s seal integrity.
