Checking and Controlling the Installation Site The MxC must be installed and used in an area that complies with the conditions listed below. Maintain the conditions of the area for proper performance life. ‹ Installation Site Install the MxC under the following conditions, making sure that the area complies with Pollution Level 2 or less (as defined by UL standards). Table 1.5 Installation Site The MxC should be installed: • in a clean location free from oil mist and dust. • in an environment where metal shavings, oil, water, or other foreign materials do not get into the MxC. • in a location free from radioactive materials and combustible materials (e.g. wood).
• in a location free from harmful gases and liquids. • in a location free from excessive oscillation. • in a location free from chlorides. • in a location away from direct sunlight. ‹ Controlling the Ambient Temperature To get optimum performance and full product life, the MxC should be installed in an environment free of extreme temperature changes. If the MxC is installed in an enclosed environment such as a box or enclosure panel, use a cooling fan or air conditioner to keep the internal air temperature below 45 ° C. ‹ Protecting the MxC from Foreign Matter Place a cover over the MxC during installation to shield it from exposure to metal particles when drilling.
Always remove the cover from the MxC after completing installation. Failing to do so will reduce ventilation and possibly cause the MxC to overheat. 1 -8 Type Ambient Operating Temperature Humidity Enclosed wall-mounted -10 to + 40 °C 95% RH or less (no condensation) Open chassis -10 to + 45 °C 95% RH or less (no condensation)
