Optional Vacu-Pass

TM

Cord & Cable Portal Use

Note: There must be enough clearance to pass the cord or cable between the
Logic+’s exterior dress panel and any obstruction.

Note: Some Vacu-Pass components and the cord or cable passing through it
may become contaminated during use of the cabinet. Ensure all potentially
contaminated components are surface decontaminated before handling or
removal from the cabinet.

1. Remove the grommet from the liner side wall. Remove the solid sealing

plug from the body of the portal by either pressing it through from the
outside, or by carefully inserting a spatula or similar device between the
sealing plug and the body of the portal, and prying the plug out.

2. Pass the cord or cable through the body of the portal, and then through

one of the plugs that has been cut for cord or cable use, then through the
grommet, as shown in Figure 3-2.

Note: select a plug with a hole that is slightly smaller than the cord or cable,
to create a proper seal. This will also help minimize movement of the cord or
cable if it is accidentally pulled during use.


3. Position the cord or cable as it will be used in the cabinet, and then push

the plug back into the body of the portal until it seats in the portal.
Reinstall the grommet.
