IND780 Installation Manual

Wall Mounting, Concrete and Cement Blocks

When mounting the IND780 to a cement block, poured concrete or similar wall,
the recommended mounting bolt is:
• UL-listed concrete sleeve anchor, size 1/4" (6 mm), minimum embed 1/2"
(12.7 mm), minimum pullout force of 500 lb (266 kg).
Figure 2-13 shows an example of mounting hardware.
1. Drill a hole through each of the measurements/locations you marked in the
Preparation for Wall Mounting section. Use a carbide bit conforming to ANSI
B94, 12-77 with the same size bit as anchor diameter (typically 5/16" (8
mm)). The depth of the hole should be deeper than 1/2" (12 mm).
2. Clean the holes with a wire brush.
3. Make sure the head of the bolt is flush with the top threaded part of the anchor
then insert the anchor assembly through the mounting holes and into the base
material.
4. Push anchor assembly until washer is snug against the wall.
5. Tighten each bolt with a wrench (use a screwdriver for flat/round heads),
approximately three or four full turns or until anchor is tightly secured to the
base material.
6. Back the bolts out sufficiently to allow them and their washers to engage the
top center of one of the slotted holes in the mounting brackets (see Figure 2-9
and Figure 2-11).

Wall Mounting, Wood Surface

When mounting the IND780 to a wooden wall or similar surface, use four #12
screws of at least 1 1/4" (30 mm) length, each with a flat washer of minimum
1/2" (12 mm) diameter.
Install the screw and washer, leaving sufficient gap to accommodate the slotted
hole in the bracket – see Figure 2-9 and Figure 2-11.
Periodically inspect the terminal to insure that it is securely anchored to the wall. If
not, remove the terminal and retighten the mounting anchor bolts.
