Static hazard
Glass reinforced polyester resin has a surface resistance greater than 10E9 Ohms. They can present a
hazard from static electricity. CLEAN ONLY WITH A DAMP CLOTH
Carbon loaded glass reinforced polyester, coloured black and identified by the suffix 'C', (e.g. BPGC9),
have a surface resistance between 10E6 and 10E9 Ohms. They do not present a hazard from static
electricity.
Installation
These instructions assume that the required cable entries have been pre-drilled. Cable entries may be
threaded. All cable entry devices must be appropriately certified to the latest standards and match the
certification of the box. i.e. ATEX certified devices are required for ATEX certified enclosures and IECEx
certified devices are required for IECEx certified enclosures. If trunking is fitted, non-metalic slotted
trunking may be used for T6 rated applications. If the box is rated other than T6 then metallic slotted
trunking must be used.
1)
Using the mounting dimensions data provided, either in the product catalogue data sheets or on the
drawings supplied, (as part of the project documentation), mark out the positions for the mounting
holes on the surface where installation is required.
2)
Drill the mounting holes for M4 fixing studs (for size BPG1 to BPG5) or for M6 fixing studs (for size
BPG6 to BPG15) as applicable.
3)
Tap thread into mounting holes if required.
4)
Place a mounting screw through one mounting hole in the box so that the thread of the screw
protrudes from the back of the box. Lift the enclosure into position using such assistance as may be
necessary to avoid injury and:-
a)
If clearance mounting holes are used, insert the protruding thread through the appropriate
clearance hole and secure with a nut on the other side of the mounting surface.
Or
b)
If threaded holes are used, locate the end of the mounting screw over the thread hole and, using
an appropriate screwdriver tighten the screw.
5)
Rotate the box to line up the remaining mountings and repeat (4) above until all mounting screws
have been fitted.
6)
Where slotted trunking has been supplied (solid trunking is not permitted) ensure that it is suitable for
the proposed T classification of the final certified product. Where the T6 is the proposed rating and no
windows are fitted any polymeric or metallic slotted trunking may be used. For other T classifications
