Environmental Protection

The IND246 terminal is designed for heavy washdown areas. It has been tested and found to meet
IP66 standards. An IP66 rating is similar to a Type 4 and a Type 6 rating.
2.3.

Mounting the Terminal

The harsh enclosure can be placed on a desktop or mounted to a more vertical surface using the
brackets included with the terminal. Mount the terminal where viewing is optimal and the terminal
keypad is easily accessible. Observe location and environment considerations as described in
Chapter 1, Introduction.
2.3.1.

Desktop Mounting

When the IND246 terminal will be placed on a flat surface, the four self-adhesive rubber feet
(included with the terminal) should be attached to the bottom of the enclosure to prevent sliding.
Locate the four rubber feet, remove the protective paper from the adhesive, and press one foot onto
each corner of the bottom of the enclosure, as shown in Figure 2-3.
