Follow these safety guidelines when you mount a Zone Damper and Bypass Damper Controller:
- Ensure that the mounting surface can support the controllers and any user-supplied enclosure.
- Mount the controller on a hard, even surface whenever possible.
- Use shims or washers to mount the controller securely and evenly on the mounting surface.
- Mount the controller in an area free of corrosive vapors that matches the ambient conditions specified in the ZEC310 Zone and BYP200 Bypass Controllers technical specifications section.
- Provide at least 50 mm (2 in.) on the top, bottom, sides, and front of the controller for cable and wire connections and for adequate ventilation through the controller.
- Do not mount the controller in areas where electromagnetic emissions from other devices or wiring can interfere with controller communication.
- Avoid mounting the controller on surfaces with excessive vibration.
- Wear the appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE). For example, a hard hat, safety glasses, steel toe boots, and gloves.
Follow these additional guidelines when you mount a field controller in a panel or enclosure:
- Do not install the controller in an airtight enclosure.
- Mount the controller so that the enclosure walls do not obstruct cover removal or ventilation through the controller.
- Mount the controller so that the power transformer and other devices do not radiate excessive heat to the controller.
