!

CAUTION: Risk of Electric Shock.

Disconnect the power supply before
making electrical connections to avoid
electric shock.

IMPORTANT: Reverse polarity installation of the
cell or the battery in the end product must be
avoided.

Mise En Garde: Risque de décharge
électrique. Débrancher l'alimentation

avant de réaliser tout raccordement
électrique afin d'éviter tout risque de
décharge électrique.

IMPORTANT: Use copper conductors only. Make
all wiring in accordance with local, national, and
regional regulations. Do not exceed the FX22/FX62
Supervisory Controller’s electrical ratings.

IMPORTANT: To reduce the risk of fire or electrical
shock, install in a controlled environment relatively
free of contaminants.

IMPORTANT: Use this FX22/FX62 Supervisory
Controller only as an operating control. Where
failure or malfunction of the FX22/FX62 could lead
to personal injury or property damage to the
controlled equipment or other property, additional
precautions must be designed into the control
system. Incorporate and maintain other devices,
such as supervisory or alarm systems or safety or
limit controls, intended to warn of or protect against
failure or malfunction of the FX22/FX62.

NiMH Battery Precautions

IMPORTANT: Overcharging, short circuiting,
reverse charging, mutilation, or incineration of the
cells and the batteries must be avoided to prevent
one or more of the following occurrences: Release
of toxic materials, release of hydrogen and/or
oxygen gas, rise in surface temperature.

IMPORTANT: If a cell or battery has leaked or
vented, replace it immediately using protective
gloves.

IMPORTANT: If and when necessary , these cells or
batteries must be replaced with identical new ones
from the same manufacturer. If a cell or a battery to
be replaced is connected with other cells or batteries
in series, it is recommended that the other cells or
batteries be replaced with new ones at the same
time.

Static Discharge Precautions

Static charges produce voltages high enough to
damage electronic components. The microprocessors
and associated circuitry within the FX22/FX62 is
sensitive to static discharge.

IMPORTANT: Work in a static free area. Discharge
any static electricity you may have accumulated.
Discharge static electricity by touching a known,
securely grounded object. Do not handle the Printed

Controller vertically, with the two screw mounting tabs
at the bottom of the unit. It is not necessary to remove
the covers before mounting.

Location Considerations

This product is intended for indoor use only. Do not
expose the FX22/FX62 Supervisory Controller to
ambient conditions outside the range of 0 to 50°C
(32 to 122°F), or relative humidity outside the range of
5 to 90% at 25°C (77°F), noncondensing.

If mounting inside an enclosure, the enclosure should
be designed to keep the FX22/FX62 Supervisory
Controller within its required operating range
considering a 20-watt dissipation by the FX22/FX62
Supervisory Controller, plus dissipation from any other
devices installed in the same enclosure. Maintaining
the proper operating ambient conditions is especially
important if the FX22/FX62 Supervisory Controller is
mounted inside an enclosure with other heat-producing
equipment.

Do not mount the FX22/FX62 Supervisory Controller:

• in an area where excessive moisture, corrosive
fumes, or explosive vapors are present.

2. Position the FX22/FX62 Supervisory Controller
over the screw, so the screw head enters the
keyhole slot in the back of the supervisory
controller. Press the supervisory controller against
the wall, and slide the supervisory controller down
so the screw is captured by the slot (see 2b in
Figure 3).

3. Level the unit, and install a screw into each of the
two lower mounting tabs (see 3 in Figure 3).

• where vibration or shock is likely to occur.

• in a location subject to electrical noise. This
includes the proximity of large electrical
contractors, electrical machinery, welding
equipment, spark igniters, and variable frequency
drives.

Physical Mounting

For proper cooling, mount the FX22/FX62 Supervisory
Controller vertically, with the two screw mounting tabs
at the bottom of the unit. It it not necessary to remove
the covers before mounting.

Dimensions of the rear keyhole slot and lower
mounting tabs are shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3,
along with a step-by-step wall-mounting proced ur e .

Install one panhead screw (intended for the rear
keyhole slot) into the wall first, then hang the
supervisory controller on that screw. Then use screws
in the two lower tabs to secure the supervisory
controller to the wall (see Figure 2 and Figure 3).

1. For the rear center keyhole slot, install a pan head
screw into the wall. Do not tighten completely—
leave the back of the screw head about 3/32 in.
(2.4 mm) from the wall (see 1b in Figure 3).
