This unit is rated for NEMA 4X/IP65 indoor use. Installation Category I, Therefore, keep cable runs as short as possible. Pollution Degree 2 8. WEIGHT: 3 oz. (85 grams) INSTALLATION ENVIRONMENT The unit should be installed in a location that does not exceed the maximum operating temperature and provides good air circulation. Placing the unit near devices that generate excessive heat should be avoided. The bezel should be cleaned only with a soft cloth and neutral soap product. Do NOT use solvents. Continuous exposure to direct sunlight may accelerate the aging process of the bezel. Do not use tools of any kind (screwdrivers, pens, pencils, etc.) to operate the keypad of the unit. Installation The CUB4 series of products meet NEMA 4X/IP65 requirements for indoor use, when properly installed. The units are intended to be mounted into an enclosed panel. The viewing window and reset button are factory sealed for a washdown environment. A sponge rubber gasket and mounting clip are provided for sealing the unit in the panel cut-out. The following procedure assures proper installation: 1. Cut panel opening to specified dimensions. Remove burrs and clean around panel opening. 2. Carefully remove the center section of the panel gasket and discard. Slide gasket over rear of the unit to the back of the bezel. 3. Assemble nut fastener first and then mounting screw onto both sides of mounting clip. Tip of screw should not project from hole in mounting clip. 6. Alternately tighten each screw to ensure uniform gasket pressure. Visually 4. Install CUB4 unit through the panel cut-out until front bezel flange contacts inspect the front panel gasket. The gasket should be compressed about 75 to the panel-mounted gasket. 80% of its original thickness. (Recommended torque is 28 to 36 in-oz.) If 5.

Repeat procedure for tightening mounting screws. 2 WIRING CONNECTIONS The electrical connections are made via rear screw-clamp terminals located on the back of the unit. When wiring the unit, use the label to identify the wire position with the proper function. All conductors should meet voltage and current ratings for each terminal. Also cabling should conform to appropriate standards of good installation, local codes and regulations. It is recommended that power supplied to the unit (AC or DC) be protected by a fuse or circuit breaker. Strip the wire, leaving approximately 1/4" bare wire exposed (stranded wires should be tinned with solder). Insert the wire into the screw-clamp terminal and tighten down the screw until the wire is clamped tightly. Each terminal can accept up to two #14 AWG wires. Note: The Reflective CUB4 will NOT have a screw terminal installed at the V+ terminal, since it is NOT required for operation and is not internally connected.

Pulling the “L.S. CNT.” Input to Common with a mechanical or solid-state switch increments the counter. The low pass filter used with a Schmidt trigger circuit debounces mechanical switch signals. The switch load is 14 µA (max. voltage drop 0.5 V) when ON. The OFF-state leakage current must be less than 2 µA. Motor starter contacts, tungsten contacts, and brush-type contacts should NOT be used. CUB4L8W L.S. INPUT, 30 CPS MAX. The CUB4L8W accepts most machine control voltage signals. The input accepts AC (50/60 Hz) or DC control voltages from 10 to 300 V at count speeds up to 30 cps. The unit counts on the positive going edge of the input signal. WARNING: Any lead may be at hazardous live input potential. External wiring and devices connected to the unit must be rated the same as applied signal input voltage and be properly isolated from Class 2 or SELV circuitry.
