ENC8A INSTALLATION 9. Connect the necessary wires to the unit for the application desired. 10. Assemble the enclosure with the screws provided. Alternately tighten each screw to ensure uniform gasket pressure. It is recommended to wire the unit before mounting it in the enclosure to ensure good electrical connections. The following steps outline the most common sequence for installing a unit without an MLPS1 attached. 1. Determine the location of the conduit fitting and drill the necessary hole. Install the fitting and bring the wiring into the enclosure. 2. Slide the panel gasket over the rear of the unit to the back of the bezel. 3. Assemble nut fastener and mounting screw onto both sides of the mounting clip. The tip of the screw should not project from the hole in mounting clip. 4. Install the unit through the opening in the front of the lid until the bezel flange contacts the panel. 5. Slide the mounting plate over the rear of the unit until it is against the inside front of the enclosure. 6. Slide the mounting clip over the rear of the unit until the mounting clip is against the inside of the enclosure. The mounting clip has latching features which engage into mating features on the unit’s housing. Note: It is necessary to hold the unit in place when sliding UNIT the mounting clip into position. GASKET 7. Alternately tighten each screw to ensure uniform gasket pressure. Visually inspect the front panel gasket. The gasket should be compressed to about 75 to 80% of its LATCHING original thickness (Recommended torque is 28 to 36 FEATURE in-oz.). If not, gradually turn mounting screws to further compress the gasket. 8. If the gasket is not adequately compressed, and the mounting screws can no longer be turned, loosen the mounting screws and check that the mounting clip is latched as close as possible to the inside of enclosure. Repeat the procedure for tightening the screws. 3.77 (95.8) 4.72 (119.9) ENCLOSURE, REAR NUT FASTENER MOUNTING PLATE ENCLOSURE, FRONT MOUNTING SCREW MOUNTING CLIP UNIT 1 CONTROL LINES ENC8B w/ MLPS1 Installation 8.

MOUNTING PLATE CONTROL UNIT LINES ENC8 - STEEL ENCLOSURE DIMENSIONS In inches (mm) 4.50 (114.3) 3.50 (88.9) 4.00 (101.6) 4.15 (105.4) DESCRIPTION This enclosure is designed for use with the CUB4, CUB5, DT8 & DT9 units. The enclosures are large enough to accommodate a Micro-line Power Supply (MLPS1) attached to the unit. These rugged enclosures are fabricated of formed steel with all seams welded to withstand NEMA 4/IP65 wash-down applications. The kits are coated with a durable black polyurethane finish. The holes for conduit fittings or other types of wiring connectors can be drilled through the removable rear access panel, or through the enclosure itself. The enclosures can be free standing or securely fastened to a mounting surface with the brackets and hardware found in the mounting kit (provided with the enclosure). The brackets also allow the enclosure to be raised and/or tilted from the mounting surface in order to achieve the most favorable operating position. Provided are four self-stick foot pads that can be applied to the bottom of the enclosure to protect the mounting surface. The foot pads are particularly useful for free standing installations.
