Mounting the Controller

The

C-Series controller

is designed for indoor mounting.

Care should be taken in selecting a location and when
mounting the enclosure. Avoid mounting it in direct sunlight
to prevent heating of the enclosure. The enclosure should be
mounted vertically on a wall.

In outdoor installations, the

C-Series controller

must be

installed in a rainproof enclosure to eliminate exposure to
rain, mist or water-spray.

To mount the

C-Series controller

:

1.

Remove the faceplate on the controller.

2.

Place the controller on the desired mounting surface and
mark the location of the keyhole slots on the wall.

3.

Move the controller out of the way, and secure two
mounting screws in the locations marked. Leave the
screw heads backed out approximately ¼ inch (6 mm)
or less.

4.

Place the controller onto the screws and pull it down into
the keyhole slots.

5.

Then insert the two more screws in two of the four
additional mounting holes provided to secure the
enclosure onto the wall.

6.

Provide either strain-relief clamps or conduit to prevent
damage to the circuit board and terminal block from
pulling on the wires.

CAUTION: Damage to

C-Series

Controller

Install the

C-Series controller

in a dry, protected location away

from sources of high temperature, moisture, and vibration.
Exposure to saltwater is particularly destructive. Corrosion is not
covered by the warranty
