Execute actions that listed above in reverse order to assemble the device into case. 
 
Fig. 8 - TAU-72.IP/TAU-36.IP assembling screw types 
Fig. above shows screw types, used for assembling the device into case: 
1.  Rack brackets mounting. 
2.  Case parts mounting. 
3.  Board, ventilation unit, plug, rail mountings. 
4.  Fan mounting screw. 
5.  Earthing screw. 
To protect subscriber lines against surge, linear side of the cross must be equipped with ‘MKZ 
3-K’ arresters with operate voltage of 230V.  
The arresters (MKZ) are designed to protect the FXS and FXO sets of TAU-72M.IP and TAU-
36M.IP  gateways  from  dangerous  surge  voltages  and  currents  in  air  cable  strands  caused  by 
lightning discharge, high-voltage electric transmission lines, overhead wirings of electric railway and 
various industrial sources of impulse interferences as well as from contact with low voltage power 
lines. 
The arresters contain two voltage protection cascades (the first one is on the aerial fuse, the 
second one is on the semiconductor switches) and current protection (on the polymer posistors).  
The installation of MKZ arrestors requires the grounding bar mounted on the linear side. The 
arrester  is  installed  in  normally  closed  connecting  strip  (Krone,  Intercross  or  their  compatibles) 
according to the marking on the device body. The connection diagram is shown in Fig.  9.
