Installation
5–3
The terminal must be mounted in a panel or enclosure to protect the internal
circuitry. The terminal meets NEMA Type 4, 12, 13 (indoor use only) or 4X
(indoor 2707-V40P2N, -V40P2NR) ratings only when mounted in a panel or
enclosure with the equivalent rating.
Allow enough spacing within an enclosure for adequate ventilation. For
some applications, you may have to consider heat produced by other devices
within a panel. The ambient temperature around the terminal must be
maintained as specified above.
Make sure that provisions are made for accessing the back panel of the
terminal for wiring, routine maintenance, and troubleshooting.
Other than the tools required to make the panel cutout, the tools required for
installation are:
•
7mm (M4) deep well socket wrench or nut driver
•
small slotted screwdriver
•
torque wrench (in. / lbs).
The terminal is tightened against the panel with six self-locking nuts.
Make sure that you leave adequate room, as shown in Figure 5.1, for
mounting, air flow, cabling and access to DIP switches.
