INSTRUCTIONS
-
Select the dimension table(s) which applies to your enclosure construction, door and door hardware construction and/or disconnect type (fusible or unfused) and NEMA size.
-
Determine the enclosure flange width (Dimension E), the disconnect mounting depth (Dimension C), the enclosure’s length (Dimension B) and width (Dimension A + D) to insure that the fabricated enclosure is as large as these minimum values. NOTE:
-
The enclosure length is based upon the minimum wire space (Dimension Yip) at top and bottom required by N.E.C. The minimum enclosure opening and depth will insure adequate space for mounting
the disconnect inside the enclosure and securing it to the enclosure flange. -
Refer to N.E.C. for required wire bending space (Dimension “Y”). If wire or pressure connectors other than those of ALLEN-BRADLEY are used, this dimension should be adjusted accordingly. Values specified for “Y” will provide “S” distance as shown. Any change in “Y” will cause an identical change in “S”. Provide slot and mounting holes on the right-hand flange as indicated. NOTE: Location of holes in enclosure mounting plate for disconnect switch and fuse block adapter plate can be determined from line drawings on Page 4.
-
Locate door catch using “P” and “T”. NOTE: With enclosures using door hardware, disregard the door catch supplied with disconnect and use door catch furnished with door hardware. Refer to Page 6 for additional door catch instruct

Locate door catch using “P” and “T” dimensions. Location varies with each hardware kit. On 1494F-L4 and 1494F-LL4 hardware kits, attach the adjustable catch after the support bracket is located. NOTE: Door catch and guide bracket(s) are made with projections for welding to the enclosure door. However, if a specific installation permits, holes can be drilled in the door catch and guide bracket(s) using the projections as centers. Then, after proper location and using them as templates, corresponding holes can be drilled in the enclosure door. Door catch and guide bracket(s) are then fastened to the enclosure door with hardware furnished by user.

Establish the length of the top locking bar by measuring Dimension “AX” and subtracting 3/4″ for Kits L1, LL1, L2, and LL2; subtract 11/ 8″ for Kits L4 and LL4. Determine the length of the bottom locking bar by measuring Dimension “BE” and subtracting 3/4″ for Kits L2 and LL2; subtract 11/8″ for Kits L4 and LL4. Dimension “BC” is determined by measuring Dimension “AW” and adding 31/2″ for Kits L1, LL1, L2, and LL2; add 3%” for Kits L4 and LL4. Locate, drill, and tap holes where necessary. NOTE: These standard mill rectangular locking bars are not supplied with these kits.

The door locking hardware assembly can now be attached to the door.
INSTALLATION OF DOOR HARDWARE KITS
INSTRUCTIONS
Locking Bar(s) and Handle Assembly Using the roller latching arrangement to be
installed and the locking bar(s) prepared as specified on Page 6 proceed as
follows:
-
Insert cam bearing(s) into the cam plate hole(s), insert locking bar(s) in the cam bearing slot(s) and secure by using the pin(s) provided. See above.
NOTE : An alternate method requires using the screw(s) and nut(s) also provided. -
Remove door handle and cover plate from the handle assembly. NOTE: Rubber sealing gasket should not be removed from assembly.
-
Slide locking bar(s) attached to the cam assembly through the slot in the guide bracket(s) located on the enclosure door.
-
Insert cover plate studs through holes in door and secure to cam assembly.
-
Replace handle.
NOTE : An alternate method of assembly requires that the handle assembly be installed first and then attach locking bar(s) to the cam plate.
Roller Assembly and Defeater Actuator Lever
- Attach top roller assembly and bottom roller assem-bly (when used) to the locking bar(s). A slotted hole on roller assembly provides adjustment to insure proper gasket sealing when enclosure dimensional variations are encountered.
- Fasten side roller assembly (when used) to the cam plate using various shims supplied. Nominal enclo-sure dimensions will require one (1) 1/8” shim.
- Attach the defeater actuator lever to the upper locking bar. Refer to inset for assembled view as seen from inside of enclosure. The two screws should be located near the center of the adjustment slot. Refer to Dimension “BF”. Further adjustment may be required after disconnect switch is installed.
Door Hardware Adjustments
NOTE : The following instructions are for a right-hand flange
installation. On a left-hand flange installation substitute the words left for
right, clockwise for coun-terclockwise, and right for left as they appear.
With the disconnect secured to the flange in the “Off” position and the door
hardware attached to the door proceed as follows:
- Close enclosure door and slowly turn the handle to the right (counterclockwise) until the first notch on the cam plate is engaged. At this point positive gasket seal should be obtained with proper roller adjustment. When seal is obtained further adjust-ment to the defeater actuator lever may be required if the disconnect switch handle can be moved to the “On” position.
- Rotate door handle further to the right. Relocate defeater actuator lever if necessary, so that the disconnect “On” position occurs well before the fully latched (vertical) door handle position.
- With the disconnect switch in the “Off” position, turn recessed door defeater screw, hold and simultane-ously turn handle to the left and pull. Door should open.
- Close door, turn door handle to fully latched position and place disconnect switch in “On” position. Turn recessed door defeater screw, hold and at the same time turn door handle to the left and pull. Door should open only partially. Maintain force on handle and turn recessed defeater screw in cabinet flange. The door should now open.
- Close door and rotate door handle to the fully closed position. Pull out handle padlocking bar. Insertion of a 3/16″ minimum to 3/8″ maximum shackle of a pad-lock should prevent movement of the door handle. NOTE: Positive sealing and maximum safety have now been attained.
