3.3.1 Temperature / Ventilation
Ensure that the DIN Rail layout design allows for adequate ventilation and maintains the specified ambient
temperature range. Consider the impact on the design if operating at the extreme ends of the ambient
temperature range. For example, if it is determined that a cooling device is required, allow adequate space
and clearances for the device in the panel box or on the panel door if DIN rail is mounted inside.
3.3.2 Orientation
I3N should be mounted with locking DIN tab facing down.
3.3.3 Noise
Consider the impact on the panel layout design and clearance requirements if noise suppression devices
are needed. Be sure to maintain an adequate distance between the I3N and noisy devices such as relays,
motor starters, etc.
3.3.4 Shock and Vibration
The I3N has been designed to operate in typical industrial environments that may inflict some shock and
vibration on the unit. For applications that may inflict excessive shock and vibration please use proper
dampening techniques or relocate the I3N to a location that minimizes shock and/or vibration.
