INSTALLATION ENVIRONMENT
The unit should be installed in a location that does not exceed the maximum
operating temperature and provides good air circulation. Placing the unit near
devices that generate excessive heat should be avoided.
The bezel should be cleaned only with a soft cloth and neutral soap product.
Do NOT use solvents.
Continuous exposure to direct sunlight may accelerate the aging process of
the bezel. Do not use tools of any kind (screwdrivers, pens, pencils, etc.) to
operate the keypad of the unit.
Installation
The CUB7 series of products meets NEMA 4X/IP65 requirements for
outdoor use, when properly installed. The units are intended to be mounted into
an enclosed panel. The viewing window and reset button are factory sealed for
a washdown environment. A sponge rubber gasket and mounting clip are
provided for installing the unit in the panel cut-out.
The following procedure assures proper installation:
1. Cut panel opening to specified dimensions. Remove burrs and clean around
panel opening.
2. Carefully remove and discard the center section of the gasket. Slide the panel
gasket over the rear of the unit to the back of the bezel. Insert the mounting
screws onto both sides of mounting clip. The tip of the screw should
NOT
project from the hole in the mounting clip.
3. Install the CUB7 unit through the panel cut-out until the front bezel flange
contacts the panel.
4. Slide the mounting clip over the rear of the unit until the clip is against the
back of the panel. The mounting clip has latching features which engage into
mating features on the CUB7 housing.
Note: It is necessary to hold the unit in place when sliding mounting clip into
position.
5. 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 original thickness. If not, gradually turn mounting screws to
further compress gasket.
6. If gasket is not adequately compressed and the mounting screws can no longer
be turned, loosen mounting screws, and check that mounting clip is latched
as close as possible to the panel.
7. Repeat from step #5 for tightening mounting screws.
