2.2 Mounting the SKF Multilog On-line System IMx-16Plus
When selecting a location for the IMx-16Plus, including any outer cabinet, make sure
to consider the following aspects:
•
Position it to minimise vibration and to keep clear of high voltage equipment.
•
Avoid unnecessary exposure to radiant heat or strong magnetic fields.
•
Choose a location convenient for cable routing, to and from the cabinet.
•
With unobstructed access and clearance for opening the lid.
•
Suitable for a cabinet of this size and weight.
•
That will accommodate all the required fixing points.
Like the IMx-8, the IMx-16Plus has a blue, painted aluminium enclosure that is IP30
classified. To provide higher environmental protection, the IMx-16Plus should be
mounted inside a cabinet (an IP65 classified cabinet can be provided by SKF). When
using any outer cabinet, always use all the recommended fixings to mount and
secure it.
For the SKF IP65 classified cabinet all the needed brackets, screws and gaskets are
included. Refer section
and subsequent sections for the enclosure and cabinet
dimensions and fixing centres. When selecting a type of cable gland, parameters
such as IP-classification and cable shielding connection must be carefully considered
so as not to compromise the IP65 certification of the cabinet.
The IMx-16Plus is designed to be DIN rail mounted,
/ IMx-16Plus device DIN rail mounted in a SKF IP65 classified cabinet.
