INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
Check for any damage to the box that the unit was shipped in. Remove all shipping foam and inspect the unit for
external damage. Any sign of damage should be documented and reported to the carrier.
Assuming there is no visible damage, stand the unit up vertically so that both air streams are clear and plug the unit
into a power source to verify that the internal and external fan(s) are operational. After successfully completing this
quick test, the ACT- HSC unit is ready for installation.
The following assembly procedure details the installation of a sealed enclosure cooler to the wall of an electronics
enclosure. The procedure applies to each of the products in the ACT-HSC line. The three Heat Sink Cooler models
(ACT-HSC-22, ACT-HSC-45 and ACT-HSC-68) are very similar in design and therefore have a similar assembly
process. The major dierence between the models is the size of the cutout in the wall of the enclosure and the hole
pattern used to fasten the enclosure cooler to the wall of the enclosure.
The size and weight of the ACT-HSC-22 is manageable for one person to install alone. The ACT-HSC-45 and
ACT-HSC-68 are larger in size and heavier, so it is recommended that two people work together to install these units.
Step 1: Determine the location of the cooler on the enclosure. The ACT-HSC models can be top or side mounted.
Ensure that you have at least 6” of open space between the fan intake and the next closest enclosure or wall. When
you have decided on a location, use masking tape to outline the square cutout, see figure 2. The cutout dimensions
are shown in the drawings in Appendix A and are available for download in .DXF or SOLIDWORKS® format from the
ACT- Enclosure Cooling Resources area of our website. Start by using a hole saw to establish holes in each corner.
Use a reciprocating saw to make straight cuts between the corner holes, using the masking tape as a reference
edge and to minimize damage to the enclosures surface.
CAUTION
The risk of fire, electric shock or injury exists when installing, cleaning or performing
maintenance on the ACT-HSC unit. ALWAYS DISCONNECT the ACT-HSC from the
power supply during installation or prior to servicing.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR INJURY,
PLEASE OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s) in
accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated construction.
