Installation
Chapter 1
Installation Check List
ATTENTION: Dangerous voltages will be present on the MiniDySC terminal block while in service. The MiniDySC is intended
for use as a component of complete equipment and should not be separately installed in the field. The user must assure a
safe operating environment.
ATTENTION: Metallic contamination inside the MiniDySC enclosure will void the warranty.
Before proceeding, please take a few minutes to review the necessary steps:
• All packing materials and restraints have been removed
• All cables are properly routed
• All power cables are properly terminated
• Properly installed ground connector
• Properly terminated neutral connection (if required)
• Clean, dust-free work space with adequate lighting
• Mount the MiniDySC in an upright orientation with at least 2” (50 mm)
clearance above and below for proper cooling- see Figure 1
• Take care to prevent metallic particles from entering the vent holes
• Operational checks have been reviewed and completed
• The MiniDySC may be DIN rail or panel mounted within an enclosure as
long as the ambient temperature remains at or below 40 °C
and Figure 2.
Inspecting and Unpacking
Location (Environment)
• Carefully inspect the outer packaging for evidence of damage during
transit. Do not install a damaged cabinet. Report any damage to the carrier
and contact your local sales or service immediately.
• Check the MiniDySC label for correct model number with the packaging
list to ensure you have received the correct voltage, current, and wiring
configurations.
• After removing the packaging material, inspect the contents for any
evidence of physical damage, and compare each item with the Bill of
Lading. If damage has occurred or shortages are evident contact your
carrier immediately.
NOTICE: Install this equipment in an indoor temperature-controlled area, free from
condensation and conductive contaminants such as carbon dust.
The MiniDySC must be installed in a protected environment. The location must
provide adequate airflow around the MiniDySC in an atmosphere free from
excessive dust, corrosive fumes, or conductive contaminants. Do not operate the
MiniDySC in an environment where the ambient temperature or humidity is
beyond the specified limits given in this manual.
