Prevent Electrostatic Discharge
Mounting of Master Module
Mount the Powermonitor 3000 Master Module in a suitable protective
enclosure. Select an enclosure that will protect the Master Module
from atmospheric contaminants such as oil, water, moisture, dust
corrosive vapors and other harmful airborne substances. The
enclosure should also protect against personnel contact with
energized circuits. The ambient temperature within the enclosure must
remain within the limits listed in the Specifications, page 61.
Select an enclosure that will provide adequate clearance for
ventilation and wiring for the Powermonitor 3000 and other
equipment to be installed within the enclosure. See Figure 41 and
Figure 42 for dimensions and spacing guidelines for the
Powermonitor 3000.
Mount the Master Module so that the metal grounding clips on the
bottom of the mounting feet make direct contact with the enclosure
mounting panel. If the mounting panel is painted, scrape or sand the
paint down to bare metal. Use star washers to assure good long-term
electrical contact with the mounting panel. Ensure that the mounting
panel is properly connected to a low-impedance earth ground.
Mount the enclosure in a position that allows full access to the
Powermonitor 3000 Master Module. Install the Master Module with the
ventilation slots in the bottom and top of the unit unobstructed to
assure adequate free convection cooling of its internal electronic
components.
ATTENTION
Electrostatic discharge can damage integrated circuits
or semiconductors. Follow these guidelines when
you handle the module.
•
Touch a grounded object to discharge static
potential.
•
Wear an approved wrist strap grounding device.
•
Do not open the module or attempt to service
internal components.
•
If available, use a static safe work station.
•
When not in use, keep the module in its static
shield bag.
