Creating Cable Openings
The gland plate is a sheet of metal with studs along the outer
edge. The gland plate provides cable entry and cable
termination points, and must be installed to maintain the
IP21/IP54 (Type 1/Type 12) protection rating. The gland plate
is placed between the drive enclosure and the pedestal.
Depending on stud orientation, the plate can be installed from
inside the enclosure or by taking off the front cover of the
pedestal. To prepare and install the gland plate, use the
following steps. Refer to
Illustration 1.6
.
1.
Create cable entry holes in the gland plate using a
sheet metal punch.
2.
If installing the gland plate through the pedestal,
remove 6 M5x14 countersunk screws securing the
pedestal front plate.
3.
Insert the gland plate using 1 of the following
methods:
3a
To insert the gland plate through the
pedestal, slide the gland plate through the
slot in the front of the pedestal.
3b
To insert the gland plate through the
enclosure, angle the gland plate until it
slides under the slotted brackets.
4.
Align the studs on the gland plate to the holes in the
pedestal and secure with 10 M5 nuts.
5.
Torque each nut to 2.3 Nm (20 in-lb).
6.
If removed previously, reposition the pedestal front
plate and fasten it with 6 M5x14 countersunk screws.
