SAGINAWCONTROL Mechanical Interlock in Mod Enclosures Up to 10 Doors Continuously
INTRODUCTION
The included mechanical interlock system involves a number of moving parts
that work in unison to secure the entire modular enclosure system. It is a
common practice to have each interlock assembly within the interlock system
dependent on a main door to increase overall enclosure security; only allowing
other doors to be opened once a master door is. As referenced in Figure A,
modular enclosures along with an interlock system operate effectively thanks
to their hex rods, adapters, set screws and rod guides; creating a crucial
step in lock out procedures to allow users safe interactions with internal
electronics.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1: Start by ensuring a level working area for installation and alignment. In order for this interlock system to work properly, proper alignment of modular connection holes are essential. This is highlighted in Figure B.
Step 2: Once all of the enclosures are in place and properly aligned,
loosen all of the set screws on the hex rod adapters for all of the enclosures
within this interlock system. Shown in both Figure A and Figure C ,
adapters and set screws are located in red.
Step 3: Slide the hex rod (shown in blue) horizontally into the next
enclosure. Captured within Figure D , the hex rod will then protrude
approximately halfway into the other hex rod adapter (shown in green) of the
adjacent enclosure. The new hex rod will now link up to the corresponding rod
just installed.
Step 4: Re-tighten all of the set screws on the rod adapters and cut off
any extra hex rod that may be protruding from your initial end enclosure.
TROUBLESHOOT
-
If all doors are not engaging properly at the lock points, adjustments can be made at the vertical rods. To do so, loosen the set screws on the vertical rod adapters; located above the interlock assemblies (shown in red). See Figure E. There, you can adjust the position and grab of the interlock. Re-tighten into place after tinkering.
-
If problems still persist, vertical rod adapters also exist behind the horizontal ones near the enclosure’s ceiling (view Figure A). Apply the same concept to these, and then re-tighten after tinkering.
-
For best results, the mechanical interlock functions make sure that all intersecting points of the hex rod and the rod guide are lubricated. These functions also determine that they are properly aligned; this allows the hex rod to move freely.
