Mounting on a wall
The LMS 16-W switch can be wall-mounted by using the included mounting kit. The wall mounting op-
tion provides better shock and vibration resistance than the DIN rail vertical mount.
Note!
When installing, make sure to allow enough space to properly install the cabling.
For installation follow the steps described beneath:
1.
Rotate the device to the rear side and locate the DIN mounting plate.
2.
Remove the screws securing the DIN mounting plate to the rear panel of the switch.
3.
Remove the DIN mounting plate. Store the DIN mounting plate and provided screws for later use.
4.
Align the wall mounting plates on the rear side. The screw holes on the device and the mounting
plates must be aligned, see the following illustration.
5.
Secure the wall mounting plates with M3
screws, see the following figure.
6.
Locate the installation site and place the switch against the wall, making sure it is the final installation
location.
7.
Use the wall mounting plates as a guide to mark the locations of the screw holes.
8.
Drill four holes over the four marked locations on the wall, keeping in mind that the holes must ac-
commodate wall sinks in addition to the screws.
9.
Insert the wall sinks into the walls.
10.
Insert the screws into the wall sinks. Leave a 2 mm gap between the wall and the screw head to al-
low for wall mounting plate insertion.
