6.1.8 Calculation of Space Requirements
The space requirements for a RSTi-EP station with n modules ( horizontal installation ) is calculated as
follows:
Height: 120 mm (4.72”)
+ 2 x 40 mm (1.57”) distances at top and bottom
= 200 mm (7.87”)
Width: 8 mm (1.57” ) end bracket
+ 52 mm (2.05”) bus network adapter
+ n x 11.5 mm (0.45”) n modules
+ 11.5 mm (0.45”) end plate and end bracket
+ 2 x 20 mm (0.79”) distances to the sides
= 111.5 mm (4.39”) + n x 11.5 mm (0.45”)
For vertical installation interchange height and width. When calculating the width for vertical
installation, 4.5 mm
(0.18”) must be added for the end bracket.
6.1.9 Installation Sequence
A RSTi-EP station may only be installed in this sequence (starting from the left/bottom):
•
End bracket
•
Bus network adapter
•
Up to 64 active modules
•
End plate and end bracket
If the station has already been configured, proceed to the corresponding installation drawing. If you
are configuring the station yourself, observe the following instructions:
•
Observe the maximum current carrying capacity (refer to the section, Current Demand and
Power Supply ).
•
Furthermore, the modules may be arranged in any sequence. In order to configure the
station as clearly as possible, it is recommended to arrange the modules according to their
function.
