2.2.2 Unpacking and Storing
If the packaging is opened for a delivery check, reseal it if the cabinets are not to be installed
immediately. Store cabinets in a dry place, protected again dust.
Avoid fixing labels on painted surfaces. If these remain in place too long, the surface can be
affected.
Use care when unloading and transporting cabinets. A fork-lift truck is usually the most suitable
means of transport.
Cabinets are fitted with lifting eye bolts to facilitate transport with a crane.
NOTE
Please, observe lifting instructions enclosed with the cabinet!
Temporary Installation of Heating Element
If a cabinet is provided with a heating element, activate it as soon as possible after the cabinet is
unpacked to prevent corrosion.
Connect the mains supply a.c. (phase, return and protective earth) directly to the terminal blocks
of the element unit.
Make the connection temporarily. See the delivery documentation for information on element
location and terminals to be used.
When the cabinet is finally installed, supply the element according to the information given in
Section 2.2.7, Power Supply Connection.
2.2.3 Location
The cabinet is to stand on a stable floor, deck or supporting structure, free from vibrations, and
is to be screwed to the surface. Minimum distances to walls and ceiling are listed in the
Figure 2-6.
Access to the rear of the cabinet is not necessary.
If required, you can remove the side plates on the sides in contact when two or more cabinets
related to one controller with I/O are installed next to each other. The width of the cabinets is
reduced by 20 mm for each end panel removed. The side plates should remain in place, as
protection, on any cabinet which generates any degree of interference.
2.2.4 Arrange the Cabinets
The floor should be level and well suited for arranging (Swedish building standard-AMA
tolerance 3B or class 2), so that a number of cabinets can be bolted together without any
additional work being required.
If the floor is not sufficiently level, the cabinet base may be askew, making it difficult to open or
close doors.
Information about how to screw the cabinets together and fixing them to the floor is given in
Appendix B, RM500 Cabinet - Data Sheet.
