- Control Panels come pre-wired, as illustrated on pages 4-7.
- Make sure the control wiring is CAT5e shielded, stranded, or greater.
- If removed from the enclosure, the disconnect switch must be in the OFF position when removed, and in the OFF position when reinstalled to prevent misalignment of a switch.
- The Motor Cable Gland and the Cable Gland for Analog Control do not come pre-installed. Use a unit to drill installation holes.
- A shielded motor cable is provided and must be used with no additional cable to maintain the factory warranty.
- Mounting hardware for mounting enclosure to an I-beam, Glulam, or wall is not supplied by MacroAir. The physical enclosure of the Control Panel is 12”x12”x8”.
