Chassis (uncased) drive installation

Mounting

Drive components are sensitive to electrostatic fields. Avoid
contact with the circuit board directly. Hold drive by the
chassis only.

Protect the drive from dirt, moisture, and accidental contact.

Provide sufficient room for access to the terminal block and
calibration trimpots.

Mount the drive away from other heat sources. Operate the
drive within the specified ambient operating temperature
range.

Prevent loose connections by avoiding excessive vibration
of the drive.

Mount drive with its board in either a horizontal or vertical
plane. Six 0.19 in. (5 mm) wide slots in the chassis accept
#8 pan head screws. Fasten either the large base or the
narrow flange of the chassis to the subplate.

The chassis does not have to be earth grounded. If you
choose to ground the chassis, use a star washer beneath
the head of at least one of the mounting screws to
penetrate the anodized chassis surface and to reach bare
metal.
