MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLATION OF THE UNIT MUST COMPLY WITH LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES AND OTHER APPLICABLE
INSTALLATION CODES AND BE MADE ACCORDING TO THE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS AND ALL APPLICABLE
SAFETY REGULATIONS.
Printed circuit boards contain static sensitive components. Damage can occur even when static levels are too low
to produce a noticeable discharge shock. To avoid static discharge damage, handle the charger by the chassis
only. Remove the cover only when access is essential for installation and service and replace it promptly when
finished.
5.1.
Mounting Location
See diagrams at back of manual for dimensions and mounting information.
5.1.1.
Charger is rated IP20.
5.1.2.
Charger will operate at full specification when located where temperatures are within -40°C
(-40°F) to +50°C (122°F). Output power is gradually reduced at higher temperatures.
5.1.3.
Leave clear space for ventilation all around the charger: at least 17.5 inches (44.5 cm) at the top;
at least 4 inches (10.16 cm) at the bottom; at least 4 inches (10.16 cm) on each side. Operating
temperature ranges stated above assume stated clearances.
5.1.4.
Mount to a wall or other vertical support. The mounting surface must safely support the weight of
the charger and the fixed wiring. Charger weighs 87 lbs (39.5 Kg).
5.1.5.
Allow sufficient room for routing the fixed wiring to the charger. All field connections enter the
charger from the side. See diagrams at back of manual for further information.
5.1.6.
Do not mount the charger above any heat generating equipment or where it could get wet.
5.2.
Mounting Instructions
5.2.1.
It is recommended to keep the modules installed for ease of installation. However, if desired for
lighter lifting, remove the power modules (see section
) before installing the wallbox. These
modules can be accessed by removing the module access cover on the top of the unit (see Figure
1). To remove a module first unlock the module by moving the cam latch to the unlock position.
Then pull the module upwards to remove. Each module weighs 23 pounds, so it may require
significant force to remove the module after it is in the unlocked position.
5.2.2.
Drill four wall mounting holes using dimensions provided on diagrams at back of manual.
WARNING:
PROTECT UNIT FROM ALL DRILL SHAVINGS AND DEBRIS!
IF INSTALLING UNIT WITHOUT POWER MODULES INSERTED, USE A FLASHLIGHT TO
VISUALLY INSPECT AND REMOVE CONSTRUCTION DEBRIS CONTAMINATION FROM
POWER MODULE CONNECTORS PRIOR TO INSERTION OF POWER MODULES.
5.2.3.
Mount the charger before connecting AC, DC, communications and alarm wiring to ensure un-
obstructed access to mounting holes.
5.2.4.
Mount the charger using four 3/8 inch (M10) screws with standard flat washers. Mounting
hardware is not included with the charger and must be provided by the installer.
5.2.5.
Use keyhole feature of the upper mounting holes to hang the wallbox in its location.
5.2.6.
Inspect the connections, busbars, and wiring for any loose debris or damage from installation.
5.2.7.
Re-install any removed power modules at this time. Note
–
if the wallbox contains only one
power module, the blank module cover must remain in place to ensure adequate cooling of the
unit.
5.2.8.
Ensure all ventilation openings are clear and unobstructed.
