DESCRIPTION

The EH1000 low-profile ceiling enclosure for 2/3-inch format cameras is designed to be mounted
in fixed or dropped ceilings. The upper section mounted above the ceiling is constructed of alu­minum to meet most fire code requirements for installation in open plenum ceilings.

NOTE:

The camera mounting
bracket is reversible, to accom­modate various camera and lens
combinations.

The EH1000 is engineered for ease of installation and service. The lower section is hinged to
provide convenient access for adjusting camera and lens. The upper section has generous
interior dimensions which allow additional camera angle adjustments to be made.

The EH1000 is equipped with a tamper-resistant lock for security protection. Cable entry is
through conduit knockouts.

INSTALLATION

To mount the EH1000 directly into a fixed or dropped ceiling, perform the following steps:

1. Determine the location and direction of the enclosure to be mounted. Ideally, the enclo­sure cutout should be parallel and adjacent, or perpendicular, to any ceiling structure.
Avoid cutting into any ceiling structural members.

2. Open the cover of the enclosure to expose the mounting holes in the flange.

3. Remove any appropriate knockouts.

4. Insert the enclosure into the opening and secure with the appropriate fasteners.

5. Mount the camera and lens onto the adjustable mounting bracket. Adjust the position of
the camera and lens to clear the enclosure cover when closed. Tighten the mounting
bracket fasteners.

6. Route the appropriate cables into the enclosure. Make all necessary electrical connec­tions.

7. Close and lock the cover.

NOTE:

The instructions pro­vided are for installation in a
2' x 2' ceiling tile. If mounting in
a 2' x 4' ceiling tile, you will need
to cut the ceiling tile in half and
install an additional “T” rail for
support.

Installation Using E1003 Mounting Plate
