Installation
CAUTION
Do not install this equipment in hazardous areas. Disconnect power before installing or removing
the MIM.
Mounting
The Model 378-002 MIM Station enclosure is not supplied with conduit or cable gland holes since cable
quantity, size, and entry location vary with each installation.
Drill or punch openings at the required locations before mounting the enclosure. Typically, multiple
cables entries are required for power, serial data line, and input wiring. Refer to the “Wiring” section
below. Use caution when drilling or punching the enclosure to avoid damaging the internal components.
Bottom cable entry is recommended to prevent moisture from entering the enclosure and dripping onto
the terminals or circuit boards.
Mount the enclosure to a suitable surface using appropriate customer-supplied hardware. Refer to Figure
1 for mounting hole dimensions.
Remove the shipping tie-wrap that is securing the PCBA to its mounting Snaptrack.
