The device is designed for installation in the front of a control cabinet in machine and system engineering. The environmental conditions specified for operation must be observed.
Dimensions
The dimensions of the control panel can be found on the Beckhoff website: https://www.beckhoff.com/de-de/support/downloadfinder/technische-zeichnungen/.
All dimensions are in mm.
Preparation of the control cabinet
The control cabinet must have the required installation cutout according to the device dimensions of the control panel.
The wall thickness must be between 2 mm and 5 mm for installation. After installation, be sure to check the tightness between the control panel and the installation wall.
Please also note the following for installation in a control cabinet:
- Position the control panel such that reflections from light sources on the screen are avoided as far as possible.
- For the correct installation height, use the position of the screen for guidance. This should always be optimally visible to the user.
- Do not expose the control panel to direct sunlight.
Installation in the control cabinet
Once you have made the required cutout in the control cabinet, you can install the control panel in the control cabinet. Clamping levers are provided at the rear side of the housing for mounting of the device. In the delivery state, the clamping levers are turned onto the device (see Fig. 10).
To install and secure the control panel in the control cabinet, follow the steps shown in Fig. 11 and 12:
- 1. Insert the control panel at the intended position in the control cabinet wall. Make sure that the device is secured against falling out until it is fastened properly.
- 2. Turn the clamping levers 90° outwards (sections A and B).
- 3. Tighten the clamping levers with the Allen key 3.0 mm (section C).
