builder are susceptible to dust, cutting debris, oil mist, etc. Note the
following and make sure that they are structured to prevent their entry.
(1) The cabinet and pendant box must be of a hermetically sealed
structure.
(2) Apply packing to the panel mounting surface to which a display
and operator's panel are to be mounted.
(3) Make sure that the door packing of the cabinet and pendant box
is sealed firmly.
(4) For a cabinet or pendant box with a rear cover, apply packing to
the mounting surface.
(5) Make sure that the cable entrance is sealed with packing,
connectors for conduits, etc.
(6) Make sure that all other openings are blocked, if any.
(7) Make sure that the display and operator's panel do not receive
cutting debris and coolant directly.

possibly dripping down the display and operator's panel. Make
sure that the cabinet and pendant box is of such a structure that
