EX Controller Installation Guide
LOCATION REQUIREMENTS
To avoid premature aging of the controller; ensure user security; and
facilitate access, upgrades, and maintenance, the following guidelines must
be followed:
• Install the controller:
- On a standard 48.26 cm (19 in.) equipment rack
- On a flat surface (such as a desk or a table)
• Install the controller in a well-ventilated location where it will not be
exposed to high temperatures or humidity.
- Storage temperature: -20ºC to +70ºC
- Operating temperature: 0ºC to +40ºC
- Humidity lower than 85% and non-condensing
• Do not install the controller in a location exposed to direct sunlight or
near stoves or radiators. Excessive heat could damage the internal
components.
• Controller should be positioned to be accessible for future upgrade,
maintenance and troubleshooting and where cables can be easily
connected.
• Maintain a minimum of 25 mm (1 in.) clearance in front, in the back, on
top, under, and on the sides of the controller.
• Keep airflow around and through the vents of the controller clear of any
obstruction.
• Do not put books or paper on the controller.
