46 ESP-LX+ & LXi+ Installation, Programming, & Operation Guide
Select Location
Follow these guidelines to select a location for the controller:
➊ Select an area protected from vandalism, where the user
can easily reach the controller. We recommend mounting
the controller at eye level in a utility room.
NOTE: To minimize electromagnetic interference,
select a location at least 15 feet (4,6 m) away from
high-draw motors such as air conditioners,
refrigerators, or pool pumps.
➋ Select a location that has access to 120-Volt AC electrical
power or 230-Volt AC electrical power (as required).
WARNING: A circuit breaker or cutoff switch is to be
provided in the fixed wiring to isolate the controller.
➌ Choose a flat, stable, vertical surface. Allow enough
clearance for electrical conduit and connections at the
bottom of the plastic cabinet.
➍ Allow at least 9½" (24,2 cm) of horizontal clearance so the
hinged cabinet door can swing fully open to the left.
➎ Allow at least 6¾" (17,2 cm) of clearance above the
cabinet door so the hinge pin can be removed to service
the controller.
