Allen-Bradley 2711P-RTFC PanelView Plus Mounting Levers
Configured for mechanical panel retention in industrial operator interface enclosures, the Allen-Bradley 2711P-RTFC (2711P-RTFC Mounting Levers) provides direct physical execution for securing PanelView Plus 400 and PanelView Plus 600 terminals against enclosure mounting cutouts.
Suffix Breakdown & Model Matrix
- 2711P: Designates the Allen-Bradley PanelView Plus operator terminal hardware platform family.
- RTFC: Identifies replacement terminal mounting lever and mechanical fastener accessories supplied in standard packs of 8.
Hardware Specifications
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Model | 2711P-RTFC |
| Brand | Allen-Bradley |
| Origin | United States |
| Weight | 2.25 lbs (gross shipping weight for pack of 8 levers) |
| Dimensions | Standard PanelView Plus 400/600 enclosure bezel clamp profile |
| Operating Temp | -20 deg C to +55 deg C |
| Power Consumption | Passive mechanical hardware component |
| Compatibility | PanelView Plus 400 and PanelView Plus 600 terminals |
| Quantity | 8 levers per pack |
Firmware Flash Compatibility and Enclosure Sealing Mechanics
The mounting hardware interfaces directly with the terminal bezel slots to distribute clamping force evenly across the perimeter sealing gasket, maintaining NEMA Type 12, 13, and IP65/IP67 ingress ratings. While these mounting levers do not process firmware or backplane communication, their mechanical torque execution ensures the operator terminal maintains rigid physical stability and electrical ground continuity across high-vibration industrial environments.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can the 2711P-RTFC mounting levers be installed while the operator terminal is energized?
A: Yes, because these are passive mechanical fasteners, they can be adjusted or replaced during maintenance without affecting electrical power, provided safety clearance is maintained inside the cabinet.
Q: How many mounting levers are included in a standard package?
A: Each package contains a set of 8 mounting levers designed to fit the perimeter bezel slots of PanelView Plus 400 and PanelView Plus 600 terminal models.
Field Installation Guidelines
- Verify that the panel cutout dimensions conform strictly to the official PanelView Plus 400/600 installation template before inserting the operator terminal.
- Slide the terminal through the front of the panel cutout, ensuring the perimeter neoprene gasket is seated flat against the enclosure wall to preserve environmental sealing.
- Engage the 2711P-RTFC mounting levers into the designated slots along the terminal bezel from the rear of the panel.
- Rotate and secure the levers evenly in an alternating cross pattern to achieve uniform gasket compression without warping the plastic front bezel or damaging the enclosure metal.
