Mounting the Controller
This section provides recommendations and requirements for mounting the MP501.
Location Recommendations
Trane recommends locating the MP501:
•
In an indoor environment for protection from the elements.
•
Near the controlled equipment to reduce wiring costs.
•
Where it is easily accessible for service personnel.
•
Where public access is restricted to minimize the possibility of tampering or vandalism.
Operating Environment Requirements
Operate a MP501 in an indoor environment that meets the following requirements:
•
Temperature: 32°F to 122°F (0°C to 50°C)
•
Relative humidity: 10–90%, non-condensing
Mounting Recommendations
Important:
Leave the cover on when mounting the MP501 to avoid the possibility of damaging
the circuit board during installation.
Trane recommends the following mounting guidelines:
•
Mount the controller in any direction, other than with the front of the cover facing downward.
•
Mount using the two 3/16 in. (4.8 mm) radius mounting holes provided (refer to
).
Mounting fasteners are not included.
•
Attach the controller securely so it can withstand vibrations of associated HVAC equipment.
•
If the controller is mounted in a small enclosed compartment, complete all wiring connections
before securing the controller in the compartment.
