2.2 Fitting variants
You can fit the MPA valve terminal in one of two ways:
Type of mounting Description
Fitting onto a hat rail The valve terminal is suitable for fitting
horizontally onto a hat rail (support rail as
per EN 60715). There is a guide groove on
the back for hanging the valve terminal
onto the hat rail.
Fitting onto a wall The multipin sub−base or the pneumatic
interface and the end plates contain holes
for fitting the terminal onto a wall. With
MPA valve terminals with more than 5 sub−
bases, additional fastening brackets may
be required on the supply unit (see the fol
lowing instructions and specifications on
vibration and shock in appendix A,
TableA/2).
Table2/1: Methods of fitting the MPA valve terminal
Please note
Fit the MPA valve terminal so that there is sufficient space
for heat dissipation and ensure that the maximum limits
for temperatures are observed (see Technical specifica
tions").
