Mounting and Wiring

Mount the enclosure using the four 0.31-inch (8 mm) diameter holes located on the mounting flanges with 5/16-inch (M6) hardware.

Remove front panel and drill or punch wire entry openings in the rear enclosure, or gland plate when present. See Figure 2 for suggested locations.

There must be a minimum of ½ inch (12.7 mm) of material between wire en t r y ho les. The recomme nded entry is via t he enclosure bottom to prevent

moisture from dripping onto the terminals. Top entry is not recommended. Basic wiring connections are shown on Figure 3. Use GAI-Tronics

60029 Series multi-party cable or 60038 Series single party cable terminated with #6 spade lugs. Torque the terminal block screws to 8–10 in-lbs.

(0.90–1.13 n-m) when attaching th e spade lugs.

Ensure any unused openings are sealed with proper fittings per local standards. All metric cable entry devices and blanking elements shall be

certified for Zone 2/22 applications with an IP66 rating, suitable for conditions of use and correctly installed. Use field wiring suitable for the

ambient temperature.
