Mounting and Wiring

Mount the enclosure using the four 0.312-inch (8 mm) diameter holes located on the mounting flanges with ¼-inch (M6) hardware.
The standard orientation (shown in Figure 1) locates the power supply housing in the upper left co rner. The orientation of the
enclosure can be rotated 180º to allow clear access on the top. The Termination PCBA can then be rotated for correct orientation.

Remove front panel and drill or punch wire entry openings in the rear enclosure. See Figure 2 for suggested locations. There must be
a minimum of ½ inch (12.7 mm) of material between wire entry holes. The recommended entry is via the enclosure bottom to prevent
moisture from dripping onto the terminals. Avoid the top left as it may interfere with the power supply. Basic wiring connections are
shown on Figure 3. Use GAI-Tronics 60029 series multi-party cable or 60038 series single party cable terminated with #6 spade lugs.
Torque the terminal block screws to 8–10 in-lbs (0.90–1.13 n-m) when attaching the spade lugs.
