Mounting of VCM-3
VCM-3 is intended to be mounted in enclosed cabinets and the like, that provide protection against fire
hazards, environmental conditions and mechanical impact. Recommended minimum IP rating of the cabinets is
22. VCM-3 can either be mounted on a DIN rail or via a mounting (adapter) plate. (Mounting method is part of
the ordering information/order code)
1.
The VCM-3 shall be mounted on a vertical metal plate, either directly or on a low profile DIN rail.
2.
There shall be at least 70mm to other devices or sides of the cabinet on the TOP, BOTTOM and FRONT
of the VCM-3.
3.
There shall be at least 20 mm to other devices or sides of the cabinet on the LEFT and RIGHT of the
VCM-3.
4.
The metal plate on which the VCM-3 is mounted (either directly or on a low profile DIN rail) shall not
exceed the maximum ambient temperature rating of the VCM-3.
DIN Rail Mounting
When the VCM-3 is fitted on a 35 mm mounting rail (DIN EN 50 022)
1.
Place the fixture on the rear of the VCM-3 with the spring at the bottom of the mounting rail.
2.
