5.1 Mounting the Enclosure

System 1100 Tonnage Monitors are available in two mounting
configurations, the self-contained unit, and the panel mount unit.

The self-contained unit (Figure 1, page 1-3) houses all System 1100
electronics in one enclosure. Mounting dimensions for the self-
contained unit enclosure are shown in Figure 16.

The panel-mount unit (Figure 2, page 1-4) separates the Operator
Interface Terminal (OIT) electronics from the Logic Unit
electronics. This configuration is useful when the tonnage monitor
display is to be mounted in a panel where depth is limited, or when
the display is to be mounted a long distance from the strain
gauges. Mounting dimensions for the OIT and the Logic unit
enclosure are shown in Figures 17 and 16 respectively.

For either configuration the Operator Interface Terminal (OIT) or
self-contained unit enclosure should be mounted in a position that
permits operator observation of the tonnage displays and
accessibility to persons designated to adjust setpoints. When the
unit is mounted on the machine, always mount the enclosure on the
shock mounts provided.
