NEMA 4X Stainless Steel Enclosure (enclosure code S Option)

LifeGuard protection panels are available with a NEMA 4X stainless steel enclosure. The enclosure includes separate instructions for wall-mounting the enclosure. Refer to those instructions for more information. Dimensions below are in inches (mm.

| Type | Enclosure | A x B x C | D x E | G x H | | Standard | 16x12x6 | 1 6 “ x 12“ x 6“ | 14.2“ x 10.2“ | 14.5“ x 10.5“ | | ( 406 x 305 x 152) | (361 x 259) | (368 x 267) |

If the LifeGuard was purchased without an enclosure (backplate only), consult the following section “Wiring,” and the section “Backplate Only Models”.

Additional requirements - Backplate-Only Models (enclosure type N)

This section applies to LifeGuard models purchased without an enclosure and on a backplate only. Refer to instructions below for additional requirements for installation and wiring. Backplate-only models must be installed in a suitable enclosure.

Mounting - Backplate Only

Refer to the figure below for dimensions. The unit must be mounted in a location sufficient to protect live electrical equipment. Use four #10 screws for mounting. It should be placed X inches away from other equipment. This vertical clearance X (minimum depth of enclosure, measured from the installed backplate) of the backplate is:

• 6” (152 mm) for models less than 100 A

• 8” (203 mm) for 100 A models.

The mounting hole diameter is 1/4“ (6.4 mm).

| Type | A x B | C x D | | < 100 A | 8. 2 5“ x 10. 2 5 (2 10 x 2 60 ) | 8. 88 “ x 10. 88 “ (2 25 x 2 76 ) | | 100 A | 12. 2 5“ x 14. 2 5“ (3 11 x 3 62 ) | 12. 88 “ x 14. 88 “ (3 27 x 3 78 ) |

green:tripped / RESET button: Resets the panel if faults have been cleared (momentary push). red:TRIPPED LED / TEST button: Illuminates when tripped / TEST button: Performs a functional test (hold for at least 2 seconds).

Apply Power

To apply power, close the customer-supplied circuit breaker / disconnect on the line side of the LifeGuard panel. If there are no ground faults present on the system, the green POWER ON LED will light.

Perform Test (Trip Level Option F)

To perform a test on fixed 6-mA models with trip level option F:

• Push TEST for at least two seconds.

• The unit will trip, the green POWER ON LED will go out, and the red CIRCUIT TRIPPED LED will illuminate. Power to connected loads will be interrupted.

• An internal self-test will initiate, taking approximately ten seconds.

• Push RESET for at least one second.

• If the internal self-test has completed, the unit will reset, the red CIRCUIT TRIPPED LED will go out, and the green POWER ON LED will illuminate. Power will be restored to the load.

Perform Test (Trip Level Option A)

To perform a test on field-adjustable models with trip level option A:
