• The cabinet enclosure, door, and perforated mounting plate for Sizes 1, 3 and 4 may
be ordered separately.
• The Size 1 cabinet enclosure is available in a flush mount version.
• Size 3 and 4 cabinets are available in 6-inch depth (for electronic installations) or

Application
Features
CP 567 Control Cabinets provide a convenient central location for equipment mounting,
termination of piping, adjustment, and calibration.
The door and mounting plate can be separated from the cabinet enclosure. The empty
cabinet enclosure can be installed at the job to permit early rough-in of conduit.
Controls may be mounted to the door and mounting plate either at the job site or at the
office and attached to the cabinet enclosure at your convenience. After reassembly, final
connections are made.
Cabinets may be used with pneumatic systems employing either copper or polyethylene
tubing for transmission lines, with wired electric/electronic systems, or with a
combination of both.
Pneumatic tubing within the cabinet enclosure should be polyethylene for a flexible
connection to hinged door components and for easy installation and arrangement.
•Cabinets are symmetrical; therefore, they can be mounted with the door hinge on
the left or right hand side.
• Door is removable.
• Attractive gray finish permits use in occupied areas.
• Support kits are available for floor mounting (medium and large cabinets only).
• Knockouts are provided for electrical or pneumatic piping.
• Cabinets are listed under UL 508 Industrial Control Panel Enclosures.
• CSA approved file LR84214.
• NEMA TYPE 1 style of enclosure.
• Height and width dimensions and cabinet color are the same for automation and
pneumatic cabinets for a uniform look and mounting.

Door Layout
NOTE: Controls cannot be mounted to the door of the flush mount cabinet.
Perform the following steps when preparing to lay out a cabinet door:
1. Determine controls to be mounted on the door.
2. Determine if the controls mounted in the door will clear the mounting plate when
tubing or wires are attached. See Figure 3 and Table 5 for dimensions. Table 4
provides the approximate space requirements for controls frequently mounted in the
door.
3. Determine if the total weight of the controls, (see Table 4) to be mounted on the
door are within the maximum weight limitations shown in Table 3. If weight
limitations are exceeded, the door might sag and prevent proper closure.
1. There are four keyhole mounting holes in the back surface of the cabinet. Their
sizes and locations are shown in Figure 5. Use wall anchors that are suitable to
support the weight of the cabinet and its contents.
2. If more than one cabinet is to be mounted in the same location, allow at least
2 inches (51 mm) between cabinets to provide space for doors to open properly.
3. The cabinets are symmetrical before cutouts have been made, so the door can be
mounted with the hinge on the left or right side.
4. Determine the size of the knockouts required for the number and size of pneumatic
tubes and wires to be brought into the cabinet.
5. If more than one knockout is required, divide the tubes and wires for easy
connection to the controls.
6. If a cabinet light is required, order per instructions under accessories. The
recommended mini work light has a 2-inch diameter by 4-inchlong (51 mm ×
102 mm) bulb holder on a 15-inch (381 mm) long flexible metal arm.
a. Remove the plug and mounting bracket from the light.
b. Punch out the 7/16-inch (11 mm) diameter knockout in the center of the top of
the cabinet.
c. Attach the light using the nut and washer provided with it.

d. Wire the light cord in compliance with local electrical codes.

Controls Installation
NOTE: It might be easier to remove the door from the cabinet and then mount the
controls onto the door or the mounting plate.
1. The space required for the controls mounted in the door or the mounting plate is
shown in Table 4. Space available between the door and the mounting plate is
shown in Figure 4, Table 5, and Table 6.
2. Arrange the controls on the mounting plate to avoid interference with the controls on
the door. Arrange the controls in logical groupings for easy access to fitting and
wiring terminals. Table 4 shows the approximate space required for controls
frequently mounted on the mounting plate in the cabinet.
3. In some cases it might be easier to remove the mounting plate to mount the
controls.
4. Mount the controls to the perforated mounting plate with standard sheet metal
screws.
5. When routing tubing or wires from the controls mounted on the door, allow sufficient
slack to prevent excessive stress.
6. Bundle and tie tubing and wires separately.

Cabinet Installation
(Flush Mount)
1. Mount the cabinet in a wall at least 6 inches (15.2 cm) deep. There are four keyhole
mounting holes in the back surface of the cabinet. Their sizes and locations are
shown in Figure 5. Use wall anchors that are suitable to support the weight of the
cabinet and its contents.
2. Determine the size of the knockouts required for the number and size of pneumatic
tubes and wires to be brought into the cabinet.
3. The cabinets are symmetrical before cutouts have been made, so the door can be
mounted with the hinge on the left or right side.
4. If more than one knockout is required, divide the tubes and wires for easy
connection to the controls.
5. If a cabinet light is required, order per instructions under accessories. The
recommended mini work light has a 2-inch diameter by 4-inch long (51 mm ×
102 mm) bulb holder on a 15-inch (381 mm) long flexible metal arm.
a. Remove the plug and mounting bracket from the light.
b. Punch out the 7/16-inch (11 mm) diameter knockout in the center of the top of
the cabinet.
c. Attach the light using the nut and washer provided with it.
d. Wire the light cord in compliance with local electrical codes.
