keypad is rated IP65 when mounted correctly in accordance with these instructions.

connector expansion card, or with no expansion card for applications already using

5Installing the Remote Keypad
NOTE
The remote keypad can be safely connected or removed while the starter
is running. It is not necessary to remove mains or control voltage.
1. Measure and drill four holes for the mounting screws and two holes for
the DB9 connector (refer to
Mounting Diagram on back page).
2. Apply the foam gasket to the back of the keypad.
3. Align the keypad over the holes and screw in place. Tighten the screws so
that the foam gasket is compressed to half its original thickness (torque
approximately 1 Nm).
NOTE
If the screws are too loose, the gasket will not provide IP65 protection.
Over-tightening the screws can damage the keypad, gasket or panel.
4. Plug the cable into the keypad and the soft starter.
