Panel Mounting Instructions
•
Prepare a standard 1/8 DIN panel cutout – 3.622" x 1.772" (92 mm x 45 mm). Refer to
Figure 1 for more details.
•
Clearance: allow at least 6.0" (152 mm) behind the panel for wiring.
•
Panel thickness: 0.04" - 0.25" (1.0 mm - 6.4 mm).
Recommended minimum panel thickness to maintain Type 4X
rating: 0.06" (1.5 mm) steel panel, 0.16" (4.1 mm) plastic panel.
•
Remove the two mounting brackets provided with the meter (back-off the two screws so
that there is
¼
" (6.4 mm) or less through the bracket. Slide the bracket toward the front of
the case and remove).
•
Insert meter into the panel cutout.
•
Install mounting brackets and tighten the screws against the panel. To achieve a proper
seal, tighten the mounting bracket screws evenly until meter is snug to the panel along
its short side. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN, as the rear of the panel may be damaged.
