2.1 Site Considerations
When choosing an installation site, check all clearances. Ensure that you
can open the ControlWave ExpressPAC cover (hinged on the left side)
for wiring and service. If present, make sure the optional
display/keypad is accessible and visible. See Figure 2-2 for a
dimensional drawing of the NEMA enclosure.
Ensure adequate clearance for the solar panel (if required).
The ControlWave ExpressPAC comes in an enclosure/chassis that you
can mount to a panel, a wall or a 2 inch vertical pipe. The ControlWave
ExpressPAC is designed to operate in an outdoor un-protected Class I
Division 2, Groups C & D environment with a nonincendive rating (see
Appendix A).
