What This Option Provides
The NEMA Type 4/12 Gasket Kit provides the information you need
to mount a Bulletin 1336 PLUS, 1336 IMPACT, or 1336 FORCE
drive in an enclosure with the heatsink extended outside the
enclosure. With the heatsink exposed to the ambient air, most of the
heat loss is dissipated into the ambient air instead of into the
enclosure.
The NEMA Type 4/12 Gasket Kit provides the following:
• The materials to mount the drive, the gasket to the cabinet, and
the self tapping screws needed to mount the drive.
• The information needed to lay out the cut out area and drill the
required mounting holes.
Important: You must use screws that have had a thread
sealant applied to prevent water leakage.
Self–tapping screws and the appropriate drilling
pattern are provided. If you choose to use
threaded screws, you must make sure that a
thread sealant has been applied to the screws and
follow the provided tapping pattern when
drilling the holes.

➀ Requires a Series B drive for NEMA Type 4 installations.
Each Gasket Kit contains a NEMA Type 4/12 permanent adhesive
backed gasket.
The self–tapping screws with a thread sealant applied to prevent
water damage have been provided. These screws are sufficient for
mounting the drive in an enclosure with a minimum thickness of 12
gauge––2.67mm (0.1025in).
When properly installed, each Gasket Kit is designed to meet either
NEMA Type 4 (IP65) standards or NEMA Type 12 (IP54) standards.
You must observe the general installation requirements that are
provided in the installation section of your Bulletin 1336 PLUS,
1336 IMPACT, or 1336 FORCE Hardware User Manual.
ATTENTION: Electric shock can cause injury or
!
death. Disconnect all power before working on this
product.
ATTENTION: Hazard of injury exists if you are
!
installing the Gasket Kit on a D or E frame. Refer to
the lifting instructions that were included with this kit.
ATTENTION: Drive heatsink surface temperature
!
may be at or near 100C. To avoid burns, do not

Before Installing the
Gasket Kit
The Bulletin 1336 PLUS, 1336 IMPACT, or 1336 FORCE Hardware
User Manual provides general installation requirements and
connection procedures. In addition to those procedures, you should
note the following before installing the Gasket Kit:
• When locating the drive, allow a minimum clearance from other
components of 101.6mm (4.0in) on the top and bottom, and
50.8mm (2.0in) on either side.
• With the heatsink exposed to the ambient air, the drive dissipates
heat as listed under User/Customer Supplied Enclosures. Refer to
the Drive User Manual, Appendix – Specifications/General.
• When mounting the drive, ensure that the heatsink fins are
vertical.
• Refer to your 1336 PLUS, 1336 IMPACT, or 1336 FORCE User
Manual for internal heat dissipation data.
• For all ratings, you must verify that the selected enclosure
dissipates the total BTUs generated within the enclosure without
letting the internal ambient rise above 50° C. Enclosure
mounting must let the heatsink extend outside the enclosure.
• Refer to Figures 1.1 through 1.6 for information on heatsink
protrusion, cutout, and drilling plans.

Installing the Drive Using
the Gasket Kit
To install the gasket, follow these steps:
1. Cut out the heatsink area.
2. Drill the mounting holes. Before drilling the mounting holes you
should make sure that they follow the appropriate drilling pattern
(Figures 1.1 to 1.6) and carefully read the Important on the first
page of this instruction sheet.
3. Clean and file the surface area to remove any burrs or sharp
edges.
4. Use paint to touch up all raw metal edges.
5. Place the gasket, with the gasket paper still intact, around the
cutout area on the inside of the enclosure and align the mounting
holes. The gasket holes are not equally spaced.
6. Peel away the gasket paper.
7. Firmly press the gasket in place with the adhesive towards the
chassis surface aligning mounting holes.
8. Remove the cover, mounting feet, and four side plates from the
drive.
9. Install the drive in the enclosure using the recommended
mounting screws. You should insert the screws through the drive
chassis to the outside of the enclosure.
10.Torque all mounting screws to the value shown in the table below.
