CAUTION
Danger of injury when the enclosure is opened
When opening the enclosure with pivoting cover, the cover is pressed upwards by means of
the pressure of the dampers. When opening, press against the cover with your hand.
Note
● Remember the maximum thermal load on the cables and wiring. The degree of protection
is only ensured when suitable cables and wires are used and correctly installed.
● Note that it is only permitted to connect and disconnect the cables to the power supply
module if the module has been powered down.
● The degree of protection is reduced when the enclosure is mounted vertically.
Procedure
1. To open the enclosure, unlock using a double-bit key (included with the enclosure). Hold
the cover firmly while unlocking to make sure that it does not spring up as a result of the
pressure of the dampers.
2. Mount the wall support (included in the enclosure accessories) to the rear panel of the
enclosure in accordance with Fig. 4-1. Secure the enclosure using 8 mm diameter screws
and lock washers at the location of use.
