NOTICE!
Horizontal mounting is highly recommended.
Vertical mounting is possible, however, derating consideration should be made
to avoid problems with poor air circulation and overheating.
When vertically mounted, always place an end-stop terminal block on the
bottom and on the top of the modules to properly secure the modules.
With high vibration applications and horizontal mounting, we also recommend
to place end-stop terminals at the right and left side of the device to properly
secure the modules.
5.3 Mounting and demounting - general information
The control system is designed to be mounted to a well-grounded mounting surface such as a
metal panel. Additional grounding connections from the mounting tabs or DIN rail (if used), are
not required unless the mounting surface cannot be grounded.
During panel or DIN rail mounting of all devices, be sure that all debris (metal
chips, wire strands, etc.) is kept from falling into the controller. Debris that falls
into the controller could cause damage while the controller is energized.
