8.1 Mounting
8.1.1 Installation prerequisites
Install the XN-312-GW-EC gateway in a control panel, a distribution board or
an enclosure so that the power supply and terminal capacities cannot be
touched accidentally during operation. Snap the device onto an IEC/EN
60715 DIN-rail.
The DIN-rail must establish a conductive connection to the control panel's
back plate. The device must be installed in a horizontal position (device desig-
nation on top).
In order to ensure that the maximum operating ambient temperature will not
be exceeded, make sure that there is enough clearance between the system
block's vents and any neighboring components, as well as between the
vents and the control panel's back plate.

Horizontal installation only!
8.1.2 Mounting the system block on the DIN-rail
To mount the system on the DIN-rail, join the XN 300 slice modules and the
gateway to form a system block and then snap the entire system block onto
the DIN-rail.
To mount the system block, follow the steps below:
▶
The gateway must be the first element on the left in the system block.
