Mechanical Installation

Description

Follow these guidelines to ensure reliable operation of the OEM Control Box:

  • Keep free from dust and dirt.
  • Keep away from water, solvents, and chemicals.
  • Keep ambient air temperatures flowing into the OEM Control Box within 0–50°C.
  • Keep the aluminum controller frame temperature within 0–65°C.

 

Use the mounting brackets, highlighted below, to mount the OEM Control Box. Depending on version, your OEM Control Box can appear slightly different to the illustration below.

Functionality is not affected by any external differences.

For the product dimensions, see section Technical Specifications .

For dimensional drawings, see section Dimensional Drawings [mm].

Ensure there is enough space for cables and sufficient air circulation around the Control Box.

A minimum of 50 mm space around the air intake and outlets is recommended, and consideration should be made to avoid re-circulating air.

For more information about the heat dissipation, see Control Unit Heat Dissipation. The following illustration shows the airflow.

Insufficient airflow, or re-circulating warm air, can cause the OEM Control Box to overheat and shut down.

 
Grounding

The OEM Control Box casing is electrically connected to the ground pin of the power source connector. Any conductive mounting surface must also be connected to the ground.
