Keep a space of 50 mm (1.97") away between the unit main body and other devices and structure.
Install the unit as far away as possible from high-voltage lines, high-voltage devices and power equipment. Failure to do so may cause
fire, equipment failures or malfunctions.
•
To prevent temperature rise, do not install the PLC on a floor or a ceiling or in the vertical direction.
Install it horizontally on a wall as shown below.
•
Arrange the extension cable in such a way that the left connectors of the input/output powered extension units/blocks or special
function blocks are connected on the side closer to the main unit.
