Provide Suitable Panel Enclosure and Determine Locations for NGC-40-BRIDGE Assembly in Panel*

1. Provide suitable panel enclosure

The NGC-40-BRIDGE must be mounted in an enclosure

door

to protect its electronic components. For indoor
applications, use a minimum NEMA 1 enclosure (NEMA 12
recommended). For outdoor applications, use a NEMA 4 or
NEMA 4X enclosure depending on the requirements.

Note: The RAYCHEM NGC-40-BRIDGE is designed for

operation in ambient temperatures from –40°C to 65°C
(–40°F to 149°F ). If the ambient temperature is outside

Alarm
light

this range, a space heater and/or cooling fan will be
required in the panel.

2. Determine locations for the NGC-40-BRIDGE assembly in
the electrical panel.

The NGC-40-BRIDGE should be located in the rear of the

panel. The NGC-40-BRIDGE assembly is an electronic unit
and must not be located where it will be exposed to strong
magnetic fields or excessive vibration.
