8-2. Mounting Method
(1) This is a convection cooling type power supply.
The power supply itself generates heat. In consideration of the
heat radiation and safety, keep a distance more than 15mm between the power supply and the peripheral parts.
When lining up multiple units, be sure to place them 15mm or more apart from each other. Avoid unit layout that
will prevent heat dissipation such as stacking or piling up one unit over the other.
Even when operating ambient temperature is thought to be within the limits of power supply specification, if the
power supply is enclosed in a sealed device or apparatus, components temperature in the power supply rises with
increase in ambient temperature of the power supply remarkably , which might cause failure.
(2) Recommended torque for mounting screw (M3 screw) : 0.49N
·
m (5.0kgf
·
cm)
(3) Do not exceed the recommended torque to prevent mechanical stress on the enclosure.
(4) Secure with the fixing holes in two places.
(5) Fix the product to a plane surface without stress such as torsion, bend and shock.
(6) About installed side of the power supply, use structure and materials that sufficiently capable tolerating weight or
temperature of the power supply.
