Introduction
DRDN20/40 is a DIN rail type redundancy module.
Like other Mean Well’s DIN series, they can be mounted on a TS35 Standard DIN rail.
Installation
(
1
)
Always allow good ventilation clearances, 5mm left and right, 40mm above and 20mm below, around the unit
in use to prevent it from overheating.
(
2
)
The appropriate mounting orientation for the unit is vertical, the input terminals at the bottom. Mounting
orientations other than that, such as upside down, horizontal, or table-top mounting, is not allowed.
(
3
)
Use copper wire only, and recommended wires are shown as below.

Note: 1. Current each wire carries should be de-rated to 80% of the current suggested above when
using 5 or more wires connected to the unit.
2. The maximum allowable wire cross-sectional area for the terminal is 6AWG/13.3 mm

Make sure that all strands of each stranded wire enter the terminal connection and the screw terminals are
securely fixed to prevent poor contact. If the power supply possesses multi-output terminals, please make
sure each contact is connected to wires to prevent too much current stress on a single contact.
(
4
)
Use wires that can withstand temperatures of at least 80°C, such as UL1007.
(
5
)
Recommended wire strapping length is 5mm (0.197”).
(
6
)
Recommended screwdriver is 4mm, slotted type.
