Step 1. Mounting Cabinets (4100U)

Overview

The important aspects of mounting the cabinet are:

 

Access for the operator;

 

Height of displays and controls;

 

Free space for door opening;

 

Cable entry for field wiring.

 

Refer to AS1670 for the height requirement and minimum access requirements.

 

In general, 18U – 28U cabinets will need to be wall mounted. Mounting holes and cabinet

 

dimensions are shown in drawing 1919-22b.

 

Door opening left/right should be specified with the order. The cabinets are symmetrical,

 

top to bottom, so door opening can be swapped by removing the equipment, rotating the

 

cabinet 180°, then re-fitting the equipment.

 

 

Step 2. Mounting Card Bays to Cabinets (4100U)

Overview

FACPs are ordered from the factory with bays and cards fitted as per the panel order

 

spreadsheet.

 

Additional mounting bays may be ordered as KT0447 which includes the 19” rac

 

mounting brackets and earth loom.

 

Attach each mounting bracket to the two studs in each front corner to achieve the format

 

shown below. Fit M6 cage nuts to the appropriate 19”rack holes, then attach the bay

 

using M6 countersunk screws.
