The mounting holes can either be 

 

-

threaded holes (for threaded screws)

 

-

or through holes (for threaded screws and nuts). 

 

X

The length of the fixing screws has to be deter-

mined according to the constructional conditions.

 

X

In order to secure the mounting screws against 

self-loosening, appropriate screw locking ele-

ments have to be provided. Schaltbau strongly 

recommends Schnorr-Washers (or similar) to se-

cure the screws.

As an alternative, contactors of the C193 series can 

also be installed by means of DIN rail mounting.
