To avoid injury: • • • • • • • • • • • • • 8 This enclosure and its associated hardware must be serviced only by authorized personnel. Enclosure must remain locked at all times, except when authorized service personnel are present.
Enclosure, equipment or parts may be damaged or cause damage if used or installed improperly. To avoid damage: • • • • • • • Prior to installation, verify that the AC input voltage to the enclosure and its equipment match with respect to voltage and frequency. Prior to installation, verify that the output voltage from the enclosure or its equipment match the voltage requirements of the connected equipment (load).
Battery Safety Notes, cont. • • • • • • • • • Neutralize any spilled battery emission with the special solution contained in an approved spill kit or with a solution of 1 lb. Bicarbonate of soda to 1 gal of water. Report chemical spill using your company’s spill reporting structure and seek medical attention if necessary. Always replace batteries with those of an identical type and rating. Never install old or untested batteries. Do not charge batteries in a sealed container.
Recycling and Disposal Instructions Spent or damaged batteries are considered environmentally unsafe. Always recycle used batteries or dispose of the batteries in accordance with all federal, state and local regulations. Electrical Safety • • • • • • Lethal voltages are present within the power supply and electrical boxes. Never assume that an electrical connection or conductor is not energized.
1.0 Overview and Specifications 1.1 The MiniBay E-911 Series Enclosures The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) created the Enhanced 911 program to improve the effectiveness of the national 911 wireless system.

2.0 Site Preparation 2.1 General Information Description This document describes the installation procedures for the RMB-E-911-B and -C enclosures. The process of installing the enclosure(s) are broken into four discrete procedures. If viewing this document on-line, click a section below (blue text) to jump directly to it. • • • • 2.
2.0 Site Preparation, cont. 2.3 Site Selection Prior to installation, you must decide on the location, mounting platform, and connection/grounding options available for the MiniBay enclosure. The information in this section will help familiarize you with these options and methods. Considerations • • • • • • • • Where possible, select a site that is above the 100 year flood plain, and away from houses. Place in a shaded location to minimize the effects of solar loading.
2.0 Site Preparation, cont. 2.4 Polymer Precast Pad (optional) If you install the Polymer Precast Pad, you will need to prepare a layered bed of sand and gravel before placing the pad on top. For specific information, consult the instructions that accompany the Precast Pad. Fig. 2-2, Polymer Precast Pad for Single-wide Enclosure 3” H X 42” W X 44” D P/N 641-110-10 3.00" min.

2.0 Site Preparation, cont. 2.5 Pour-in-Place Pad Frame Pad Frame Template The illustration below shows the overall size of the pad frame template for a single MiniBay enclosure. The actual outer dimensions of the pad will be determined by the customer's requirements. When placing the pad, allow at least 40” of clearance for the front enclosure door to fully open. The four 1/2” bolts provided with the frame should remain installed to prevent debris from fouling the threads. See p.
2.0 Site Preparation, cont. 2.6 Enclosure Grounding Alpha provides the following grounding method as a suggestion for sites not equipped with accessible grounding facilities. Grounding Specifications • Configure enclosure footprint to accommodate swing arc of enclosure door. See Fig. 2-1. • • • 1/2" x 8' copper ground rod, four places, driven about 2 feet (typical) from the corners of the pad. #6 bare copper wire loop terminated to each ground rod and buried a minimum of 30 inches below grade.
3.0 Installation 3.1 Lifting If arranging block and tackle to lift the enclosure, use the following standard rule: Make the length of the cable between the eyebolts and the lifting hook at least twice the distance between the lifting plates (2 X 32” = 64”). This will ensure that the lifting angle of the chain is greater than 60 degrees. After the enclosure is in place, the lifting plates may be removed or left in place. The lifting plate fasteners are sealed to prevent water intrusion or seepage.
3.0 Installation, cont. 3.2 Enclosure Installation The RMB-E-911 is provided with either a 7” riser or 14” riser/battery module. These two configurations require somewhat different mounting considerations and procedures. The 7” riser is shipped loose (not bolted to the enclosure) for use as a template to mark the pad for hardware and position. Mounting holes are provided in the base of the battery compartment or riser to accommodate the pad’s anchor bolts.
3.0 Installation, cont. 3.2 Enclosure Installation, cont. Installation Procedure, ‘B’ Configuration Remove all packing material from the enclosure and inspect for damage. Continue with the following steps: 1. Unwrap the pallet and remove the battery drawer covers. Reposition the lifting eyes to accept cabling. 2. Position the enclosure on the pad and use as template to mark drilling locations. Ensure the pad is smooth, level and free of bumps. 3.
3.0 Installation, cont. 3.3 Air Conditioner Overview 3.3.1 Basic Theory of Refrigeration: 1. Low pressure gas is drawn into the compressor pump, and compressed into a high pressure gas. The compression of the gas creates heat. 2. The heated high pressure gas is sent through a coil called a condenser. Air is blown over the coil, cooling the gas into a liquid. 3. The high pressure liquid passes through an expansion valve, where the liquid is allowed to expand and boil off into a gas.
3.0 Installation, cont. 3.3.2 Air Conditioner Control Board The air conditioner control board (see below) has multiple functions for compressor, condenser fan and alarm control. It has remote temperature sensors that monitor compressor discharge and evaporator suction line temperature. It has a board-mounted temperature sensor to monitor the enclosure temperature, or optional remote temperature sensor to monitor a specific area in the enclosure. The board incorporates and L.V.
