Chapter 2 Install the Monitor
Prepare the Panel Cutout
Observe these guidelines to install the VersaView 6300M monitor in a panel.
•
Plan the panel cutout according to the following:
- The acceptable horizontal orientation and vertical position; see
Mounting Requirements on page 17
.
- The panel cutout dimensions needed for your monitor that are found
on
•
The mounting panel material must be 2…6 mm (0.08…0.24 in.) thick.
•
For a uniform gasket seal, the roughness of the panel surface must not
exceed 120 microns (Rz 120).
•
Confirm that there is adequate space behind the panel as needed. For
specific information, see
Panel Mounting Requirements on page 17
•
Verify that the area around the panel is clear of obstructions.
•
Remove all electrical power from the panel before you make the cutout.
Required Tools for Panel Installation
These tools are required for panel monitor installation:
•
Panel cutout tools (for panel mounting)
•
Torque limiting screwdriver with a 1.5 mm hex key bit
•
Supplied mounting clips; for the needed quantity, see
•
Safety glasses
Panel Mounting the Monitor
Perform the following steps to install the monitor in the panel cutout.
1. Remove all electrical power from the panel before you make the cutout.
2. Cut an opening in the panel area to the dimensions needed for your
monitor that are found on
.
3. After the cutout is completed, clean the panel area of all debris and metal
fragments.
4. Make sure that the sealing gasket is positioned properly on the monitor.
5. From the front of the panel, insert the monitor into the cutout.
ATTENTION:
Failure to follow these guidelines can result in personal injury or
damage to the panel components.
Take precautions so any metal fragments during the panel cutout do not enter
components that are installed already in the panel.
À l’attention des:
Lorsqu'un panneau est découpé, des morceaux de métal
peuvent être produits.
Vous devez prendre les mesures de sécurité nécessaires pour prévenir la
pénétration des morceaux dans les composants déjà installés dans le panneau.
IMPORTANT
You need two people to install the monitor; one person to hold the monitor in
place while another person installs the mounting clips.
IMPORTANT
All monitors have a gasket that forms a compression-type seal.
Therefore, do not use sealing compounds.
