Mechanical Fixing
The PP600 can be mounted onto a flat surface using the threaded holes in the
base, see diagram. The PP600 should only be mounted either vertically or with
its base horizontal. It should be mounted at least 15mm away from the sides
of plastic enclosures. Likewise leave a similar space between the PP600 and
any parts which could be affected by high temperatures.
The enclosure of the PP600 is used to dissipate power in the form of
heat. For this reason the material to which the unit is attached must be
suitable, preferably metallic with ability to dissipate the produced heat.
This is particularly important if the power dissipation of the PP600 (as defined
by
P
D
the section on Specifications) exceeds 10 Watts.
The PP701 kit is available for mounting the PP600 on a DIN rail.
