i.
To reduce the risk of ignition of hazardous atmospheres and shock, do not apply power to the device until
installation has been completed and the device is fully sealed and secured.
ii.
To reduce the risk of ignition of hazardous atmospheres and shock, keep device tightly closed when the
circuit is energised.
iii.
Before removing the cover for installation or maintenance, ensure that the power to the device is isolated.
iv.
Following installation, test the device to ensure correct operation.
v.
Following installation ensure a copy of this manual is made available to all operating personnel
vi.
When installing the device, requirements for selection, installation and operation should be referred to e.g.
IEE Wiring Regulations and the 'National Electrical Code' in North America. Additional national and/or
local requirements may also apply.
vii.
Cable termination should be in accordance with specification applying to the required application. MEDC
recommends that all cables and cores should be correctly identified. Please refer to the wiring diagram in
this manual (or separate diagram provided with the unit).
viii.
Ensure that only the correct listed or certified cable glands are used and that the assembly is shrouded and
correctly earthed.
ix.
Ensure that only the correct listed or certified stopping plugs are used to blank off unused gland entry
points and that the NEMA/IP rating of the unit is maintained.
x.
MEDC recommend the use of a sealing compound such as HYLOMAR PL32 on the threads of all glands
and stopping plugs in order to maintain the IP rating of the unit.
xi.
The internal earth terminal, where fitted, must be used for the equipment grounding and the external
terminal, if available, is for a supplementary bonding connection where local codes or authorities permit or
require such a connection.
xii.
When installing the device, MEDC recommends the use of stainless steel fasteners. Ensure that all nuts,
bolts and fixings are secure.
xiii.
The pull station should not be mounted closer than 40mm to any solid object which does not form part of
the unit.
xiv.
Blanking plugs are not to be used with the cable entries.
xv.
When fitting or removing cable entry glands, the cable entry inserts must be held with a suitable tool to
prevent movement.

Unscrew the 4 off M6 screws (5.0mm A/F hexagon key) holding the cover assembly to the base. The cover screws
are retained in the cover assembly for ease of installation. Gently lift the cover assembly away from the base of the
enclosure to gain access to the interior.
Once termination is complete, carefully replace the cover assembly back onto the base of the enclosure, avoiding
damage to the mating surfaces. Ensure the o-ring is correctly seated in its groove during re-assembly. Evenly
tighten the 4 off M6 screws (5.0mm A/F hexagon key). Ensure the required gap (0.10mm Max.) is maintained
beween the cover and the base.
