Technical data:

 - The green terminals are male connectors (pitch 3.5 or 5 mm), the correspond-

ent female connectors have screw or spring terminals for connecting the wires;

 - Made with self extinguishing material as required by UL94 V0 standard;

 - Overvoltage cathegory/pollution degree II/2;

 - Max. load current/section 8A/2.5mm² at 65°C;

 - Test pulse voltage: 4 kVp.

Make sure that the overall current absorption (modules and field devices) 

matches the power supply.

In order to avoid excessive voltage drops, install the most power consum-

ing modules closer to the power supply.

Despite the fact that the instrument has been designed to work in an 

harsh and noisy environment, it is strongly recommended to follow 

the following suggestions.

All the wiring must comply with the local regulations.
Avoid to use electromagnetic contactors, power relays and high power motors nearby.
Avoid power units nearby, especially if controlled in phase angle.
Keep the low level sensor input wires away from power lines and output cables. 
Power lines and output cables must also be at 

100 mm

 (min.) away from the CPU. 

If this is not achievable, use shielded cables on the sensor inputs, with the shield 

connected to earth at only one side.

Warning! 

Whenever a failure or a malfunction of the device may cause dangerous 

situations for persons, things or animals, please remember that the plant 

must be equipped with additional devices which will guarantee safety.

Mounting position

-  Mount the CPU in a 75 x 130 mm 

hole;

-  In order to help the air ventilation 

flow, respect the distances between 

the CPUs and walls or other CPUs.

Disposal

The appliance (or the 

product) must be 

disposed of separately in 

compliance with the local 

standards in force on 

waste disposal.

Mount and remove the CPU

1

 Open a 75 x 130 mm hole in the 

mounting panel;

2

 Insert the CPU into the hole until the 

frame rests on the panel;

3

 Mount the two red blocks and slide 

them until they are in contact with 

the panel and hold the CPU in place;

4

 To remove the CPU, sconnect the ter-

minals, then remove the red blocks 

and invert the mounting sequence.
