Installation

General Precautions

In addition to the precautions listed throughout this manual, the following
statements, which are general to the system, must be read and understood.

Transportation and Handling

The controller must be transported on a pallet or via use of the lifting angles
supplied as part of all 2.3 m (90 inch) high cabinets or frame units.

Round rollers can be used to assist in moving the controller to the installation
site. Once at the final site, the pipe rolling technique can be used to place the
cabinet in the desired position.

Installation Site

Consider the following when selecting the installation site:

A.

The operating ambient temperature should be between 0°C and 40°C
(32°F and 104°F) for NEMA Type 1 or 12 enclosures. For higher ambient
conditions, please consult Rockwell Automation factory.

B.

The relative humidity must not exceed 95%, non-condensing. Excessive
humidity can cause electrical problems from corrosion or excessive dirt
buildup.

ATTENTION: The controller contains ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive
parts and assemblies. Static control precautions are required when installing
testing, servicing, or repairing the assembly. Component damage may result if
ESD control procedures are not followed. If you are not familiar with static
control procedures, refer to applicable ESD protection handbooks.

ATTENTION: An incorrectly applied or installed controller can damage
components or reduce product life. Wiring or application errors, such as
undersizing the motor, incorrect or inadequate AC supply, or excessive ambient
temperatures, may result in malfunction of the system.

ATTENTION: Only personnel familiar with the controller and associated
machinery should plan or implement the installation, start-up, and subsequent
maintenance of the system. Failure to do this may result in personal injury and/
or equipment damage.

ATTENTION: Ensure that the load rating of the lifting device is sufficient to
safely raise the controller sections. Failure to do so may result in severe injury
and/or equipment damage. Refer to the packing slip enclosed with shipment
for shipping weights.

ATTENTION: Care must be exercised when using either a forklift, or the pipe
rolling technique, for positioning purposes to ensure that the equipment is not
scratched, dented or damaged in any manner. Always exercise care to stabilize
the controller during handling to guard against tipping and injury to personnel.
