Panasonic WJ-GXD900, WJ-GXE900 INSTALLATIONSINSTALLATIONS

The encoder can be installed in a container box.

When required to install the encoder in a container box, install as below.

1. Place the supplied simple mounting brackets with the

supplied fixing screws on the bottom of the encoder.

2. Fix the encoder in the container box by fixing the attached

simple mounting brackets to the box with fixing screws.

(Procure fixing screws locally to fix the encoder in the

container box according to the material of the box.)

1. Ensure the following when installing the encoder in the box.

•Do not block the ventilation openings at the rear, on the bottom of the encoder with cables or clothes etc.

•Keep more than 10 cm distance between the rear panel of the encoder and the internal side surface of the box.

•Keep more than 1 cm between the bottom of the encoder and the internal bottom surface of the box.

2. Keep the temperature inside the box between –5 °C and +45 °C (23 °F and 113 °F) and the humidity less than 90%

while the encoder is in operation. (Recommended temperature is less than 40 °C (104 °F).

If temperature and humidity are beyond the value above, it may affect parts inside of the encoder and cause

malfunction.

In case of installing the container box outdoor, consider influences on temperature and humidity from seasonal

change, sunlight and weather.

According to needs, fabricate sun shields, cooling devices, heating devices, drain holes, etc.

3. Do not install the box in places where discharging of corrosive liquids and gases occurs such as locations close to

seawater, hot springs, exhaust gas, etc.

This may cause corrosion of internal parts inside of the encoder.

4. In case of installing the box in place exposed to rain, use the waterproof box equivalent to the IP45 or better.

Waterproof also around the cable hole and the cables as sufficiently as possible.

5. Depending on the material of the box, it may cause noise as the result of the vibration of the cooling fan of the

encoder with the box.

6. Make enough space around the rear panel and fix the cables firmly but so as not to bend the cables or place too

much force on the connectors.

7. Do not install the box in places such as in a car which is subject to having strong vibrations
