3.6.4 Orientation
When panel-mounted, there are no orientation restrictions on the XLE/XLT. However,
the orientation shown in Figure 3.3 provides for optimum legibility of the screen and
ease of use of the keypad. When DIN Rail mounted, observe the orientation shown in
Figure 3.3
3.6.5 Noise
Consider the impact on the panel layout design and clearance requirements if noise
suppression devices are needed. Be sure to maintain an adequate distance between
the XLE/XLT and noisy devices such as relays, motor starters, etc.
3.6.6 Shock and Vibration
The XLE/XLT has been designed to operate in typical industrial environments that may
inflict some shock and vibration on the unit. For applications that may inflict excessive
shock and vibration please use proper dampening techniques or relocate the XLE/XLT
to a location that minimizes shock and/or vibration.
3.6.7 Panel Layout Design and Clearance Checklist
The following list provides highlights of panel layout design factors.
✓
Meets the electrical code and applicable standards for proper grounding, etc.?
✓
Meets the panel manufacturer’s requirements for grounding, etc.?
✓
Is the panel box properly connected to earth ground? Is the panel door properly
grounded? Has the appropriate procedure been followed to properly ground the devices
in the panel box and on the panel door?
✓
Are minimum clearance requirements met? (See
Table 3.1
) Can the panel door be easily
opened and closed? Is there adequate space between device bases as well as the sides
of the panel and wiring ducts?
✓
Is the panel box deep enough to accommodate the XLE/XLT?
✓
Is there adequate ventilation? Is the ambient temperature range maintained? Are
cooling or heating devices required?
✓
Are noise suppression devices or isolation transformers required? Is there adequate
distance between the base of the XLE/XLT and noisy devices such as relays or motor
starters? Ensure that power and signal wires are not routed in the same conduit.
✓
Are there other requirements that impact the particular system, which need to be
considered?
