Mounting the Control Panel Cabinet
The 5808 cabinet dimensions are:
16" W x 26.4" H x 3.5" D (40.64cm W x 67.06cm H x 8.89cm D)
The 5808 panel should be located within a secured area, where it is accessible to main drop wiring runs and where it can be easily tested and serviced. End-users responsible for maintaining the panel should be able to hear alarms and troubles. When selecting a location, keep in mind that the panel itself is the main source of alarm and trouble annunciation.
When mounting on interior walls, use appropriate screw anchors in plaster. When mounting on concrete, especially when moisture is expected, attach a piece of 3/4 inch plywood to the concrete surface and then attach the 5808 to the plywood. Also mount any other desired components to the plywood.
DO NOT flush-mount the 5808 cabinet in a wall designated as a fire break.

NOTE
|
All conduit and wiring connected to the SK-5208 must meet the applicable National Electric Code, NFPA Standards, state, and local building code requirements. In all cases, the authority having jurisdiction takes precedence. |
