Assembly Guide
1. Prepare the Lid and Gasket
First, install the rubber gasket in the groove of the top cover, as shown in Figure 2. Put the four corners of the gasket into the groove, and then press the middle gently. Ensure that the gasket is not twisted.
Before assembly, check if the gasket is installed correctly. The rubber gasket helps seal the enclosure properly and protects it from dust and water.
2. Choose the Internal Mounting Plate
Next is to prepare the mounting plate. There are two types of mounting plates:
- Plain mounting plate
- WisBlock bespoke mounting plate
Plain Mounting Plate
The plain mounting plate has no holes, except for mounting holes to the enclosure. It is designed to be customized depending on the circuit board to be placed in the enclosure.
WisBlock Bespoke Mounting Plate
The WisBlock Bespoke Mounting Plate is designed specifically to hold WisBlock Base boards. You have to cut the excess bosses or parts with a wire cutter depending on the WisBlock Base board that you have.
The following guide shows what to cut depending on the WisBlock Base board.
For the cutting reference, the red line is the cut-out area.

RAK19003
3. Screw the WisBlock to Internal Mounting Plate
After cutting the Internal Mounting Plate, install the WisBlock Base board onto the Internal Mounting Plate with 2.2*5 mm self-tapping screws, as shown in Figure 8.
4. Attach the Mounting Plate to the Enclosure
Then, install the WisBlock Internal Mounting Plate to the base of the enclosure using four (4) pieces of M3*4 mm Countersunk head screws, as shown in Figure 9.
5. Cover the Enclosure with a Lid
Finally, close the WisBlock Unify Enclosure with the top lid using four pieces of M3*8 mm head screw with a washer, as shown in Figure 10.
Make sure that the solar panel wire will not be squeezed by the gasket and is properly arranged inside the enclosure with the other parts inside like the circuit board, stand-offs, screws, etc.
Mounting Guide
After full assembly of the enclosure, the next step is to choose the right mounting accessory for your application.
Each mount accessory has a mark indicated by a capital letter, as shown in Figure 11, and each WisBlock Unify Enclosure has several fixed positions, which are indicated by a mark of numerals, as shown in Figure 12. The small-sized WisBlock Unify Enclosure has only four (4) fixed positions.
Pole Mount Vertical (Type A)
- For vertical pole mount, use two (2) pieces of mount accessories, which has an indicated mark of the letter A, as shown in Figure 13.
- Fix the pole mounts marked with the letter A on the WisBlock Unify Enclosure using four (4) pieces of M3*8 mm Head screw with a washer. Place it on fixed positions number 1 & 3 of the enclosure as shown in Figure 14.
Size | Fix Position |
---|---|
Small | 1 & 3 |
- After fixing the mounts on the enclosure, place the WisBlock Unify Enclosure onto the pole by using two (2) steel strips (60-85 mm), as shown in Figure 15.
The steel strips ONLY support 60-85 mm diameter of the pole.
Wall Mount (Type D)
- For wall mount, use two (2) pieces of mount accessories with an indicator marked with the letter D, as shown in Figure 16.
- Fix the wall mounts marked with the letter D on the WisBlock Unify Enclosure using four (4) pieces of M3*8 mm head screw with a washer. Place it on fixed positions number 1 & 3 or 2 & 4 of the enclosure, as shown in Figure 17.
Size | Fix Position |
---|---|
Small | 1 & 3 or 2 & 4 |
- Lastly, follow the steps below, as also shown in Figure 18:
- Step 1: Use a Φ5 mm drill head to drill holes in the wall. Drill at least 55-60 mm in depth.
- Step 2: Plug the screw anchors into the drilled holes. You can use a hammer to plug it in. It helps the screws to have a secure fit on the wall.
- Step 3: Fix the WisBlock Unify Enclosure on the wall using two (2) pieces of ST3.5*35 mm tapping screws.
Belt Clip Mount (Type E)
- For belt clip mount, use one (1) piece of mount accessory with an indicator marked with the letter E, as shown in Figure 19.
- Fix the belt clip mount marked with the letter E on the WisBlock Unify Enclosure using two (2) pieces of M3*8 mm Head screw with washer. Place it on fixed positions number 1 or 3 of the enclosure as shown in Figure 20.
Size | Fix Position |
---|---|
Small | 1 or 3 |
- Lastly, clip the unify enclosure on the belt directly as shown in Figure 21.
DIN Mount (Type F)
- For DIN mount, use two (2) pieces of mount accessories with an indicator marked with the letter F, as shown in Figure 22.
- Fix the DIN mount marked with the letter F on the WisBlock Unify Enclosure using four (4) pieces of M3*8 mm Head screw with the washer. Place it on fixed positions number 1 & 3 or 2 & 4 of the enclosure as shown in Figure 23 and Figure 24.
Size | Fix Position |
---|---|
Small | 1 & 3 or 2 & 4 |
- Lastly, clamp the buckle of the DIN mount kit at one end on the edge of the DIN rail, then rotate and press the enclosure to clamp the other end as shown in Figure 25.
Magnet Mount (Type G)
- For magnet mount, use one (1) up to two (2) pieces of mount accessories with an indicator marked with the letter G as shown in Figure 26.
- The number of magnets to be used will depend on the weight of the device and enclosure.
- Fix the magnet mount marked with the letter G on the WisBlock Unify Enclosure using one (1) to two (2) pieces of M3*8 mm Head screw with washer. Place it on fixed positions number 1 & 3 of the enclosure as shown in Figure 27.
Size | Fix Position |
---|---|
Small | 1 & 3 |
- Place the magnets onto the mounting as shown in Figure 28.
- Confirm the number of magnets according to the weight of the device. The small unify enclosure supports up to 2 magnets.
- Avoid placing the enclosure too high or in an environment that vibrates, shocks, or is unstable because doing so could result in equipment damage or physical injury.
- The effect of magnet adsorption is related to the material of adsorption position, surface spraying thickness, and roughness, so it can only be used after confirming that the installation effect is not a problem. If the surface condition of the installation position is not good, it may also affect the reliability of the magnet installation.
- When the enclosure is fixed on the desk by magnetic suction, do not push it back and forth artificially, otherwise, the coating on the contact surface will be damaged.
- During installation, pay attention to the fixation of the external cable of the device to avoid falling off the enclosure due to the excessive weight of the external cable, resulting in personal injury or equipment damage.
- Do not put the magnet close to the magnetic card and other products, or else the stored content of the product may be erased.
- Do not put the magnet close to the computer and other electronic equipment susceptible to the magnetic field, otherwise, it may cause electronic equipment-related failure.
- The magnet should be ordered separately. Consult before placing an order.
No. | Diameter | Thickness | Material | Adsorption |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | 20 mm | 3 mm | NdFeB | 2800 Gauss (TBD) |
2 | 20 mm | 5 mm | NdFeB | 3100 Gauss (TBD) |
Handle with care to avoid personal injury or damage to the magnet.
- Lastly, attach the unify enclosure onto a metallic surface. Be careful not to pinch your fingers due to the high magnetism.
