Mounting
For mounting the controllere a 35 mm DIN rail to DIN EN 50022 is required. The
unit mounted on the DIN rail can be easily removed from there without any tools.
The housing shape was selected to match the current 24 V and AS-i power sup-
plies from
ifm electronic
. So, with a height of only 107 mm the controllere can be
installed in most control boxes with 120 mm height.
CAUTION
Overheating due to wrong mounting
The controllere may overheat, which may result in damage.
►
The controllere must be mounted vertically in the control cabinet.
This serves for an optimum heat dissipation from the unit.
►
When mounting, leave a gap of at least 30 mm above and below the unit.
The air circulation through the vents must not be hampered.
If the specified distances are adhered to, the unit can be operated in a temperature
range of 0°C to +60
°
C.
CAUTION
Electromagnetic interference caused by a frequency converter
Frequency converters emit strong electromagnetic interference. This may interfere
with the function of the AS-i controllere.
►
Install the controllere outside the area of possible electromagnetic interference
by neighbouring frequency converters.
