DESCRIPTION
The BMK6 and BMK7A base mounts are designed for use with the CUB4,
CUB5, and DT8 units. The BMK7A is large enough to accommodate a Micro-
line Power Supply (MLPS) attached to a CUB4, CUB5 or DT8.
The base mounts are constructed of steel with a textured black finish. Wiring
can either be brought through the panel on which the unit is mounted, or through
the hole(s) in the enclosure itself. Grommets are provided to insert in the hole(s)
on the base mount (where applicable) when wires are routed through it. The
grommets are in the accessory bag with each base mount unit, along with four
nuts and bolts for mounting.
INSTALLATION
BMK6 - Open Base Mount
Before attaching the BMK6 to the panel or frame, it is recommended to wire and mount
the unit to ensure good electrical connections. The following steps outline the most
common sequence for installing a unit without an MLPS attached.
1. Install the grommet (provided in the accessory bag) in the hole in the base mount.
2. Assemble nut fastener and mounting screw onto both sides of the mounting clip.
The tip of the screw should not project from the hole in mounting clip.
3. Slide the panel gasket over the rear of the unit to the back of the bezel.
Then install the unit through the opening in the front of the base
mount until the bezel flange makes contact.
4. Slide the mounting clip over the rear of the unit until the
mounting clip is against the inside of the base mount.
The mounting clip has latching features which engage
into mating features on the unit’s housing.
Note: It is necessary to hold the unit in place when sliding
the mounting clip into position.
5. Alternately tighten each screw to ensure uniform gasket
compression.
6. Connect the necessary wires from the grommet to the unit.
7. Mount the base mount enclosure to the panel or frame as application
requires. Four bolts and nuts are provided with the Base Mount Kit.
INSTALLATION
BMK7A - Closed Base Mount
Before attaching the BMK7A to the panel or frame, it is recommended to
wire and mount the unit to ensure good electrical connections. The following
steps outline the most common sequence for installing a unit with an MLPS
attached.
1. Install the grommets (provided in the accessory bag) in the holes in the
base mount.
2. Slide the panel gasket over the rear of the unit to the back of
the bezel.
3. Remove the common and V+ screw
terminals from the rear of the unit
(save for later use), and replace
them with the hex drive stand-
offs with round washers
(supplied with the MLPS).
4. Assemble nut fastener and
mounting screw onto both
sides of the mounting clip.
The tip of the screw should
not project from the hole in
mounting clip.
5. Route the wires from the
grommets, through the
mounting clip, into the rear
of the base mount and out
the front.
6. Connect the wires necessary for the application to the unit.
7. Install the unit through the opening in the front of the base mount until the
bezel flange makes contact.
8. Slide the mounting clip over the rear of the unit until the mounting clip is
against the inside of the base mount. The mounting clip has latching
features which engage into mating features on the unit’s housing.
Note: It is necessary to hold the unit in place when sliding the mounting
clip into position.
9. Alternately tighten each screw to ensure uniform gasket compression.
10. Connect AC power to the terminal block of the MLPS.
Note: Make sure the AC selector switch is set to the appropriate position
before applying power to the unit.
11. Mount the MLPS and optional sensor wires needed to the stand-offs using
the screw terminal from the unit with the supplied square washers.
12. Mount the base mount enclosure to the panel or frame as application
requires. Four bolts and nuts are provided with the Base Mount Kit.
