1. MOUNTING
Tranquell ™ SPD DIN Rail is designed to
mount onto a 35mm DIN rail or top-hat rail
(standard EN 50022, BS 5584) set in the
horizontal position. To install, first hook the
line side over a 35mm DIN rail and then push in
the load side until the spring loaded mounting
clip “clicks” onto the rail (See Figure 1).
3. AUXILIARY MICROSWITCH INSTALLATION
Remote signaling is available on Tranquell ™ SPD DIN R ail products. #30 AWG to #16 AWG
(.051 mm 2 - 1.31 mm 2 ) signal wire may be used. Maximum torque rating for the terminal
screw is 1.8 in.-lb. (0.113 N-m). The maximum continuous current rating for the micro-
switch contact is 3 amps. If applicable, install signal wiring as shown in Figure 3.

2. REPLACEMENT / REMOVAL
Replace the module if the RED indicator tab (See Figure 2) is visible
on any of the multiple pole units. To remove: (1) verify that you have the correct replacement
module; (2) disconnect power; (3) pull the pluggable module from the base; (4) push a new
pluggable module into the base. You will hear a “click”, indicating that the module is set
in place (See Figure 1). An insertion “key” built into the unit will help ensure that the module
has been correctly selected.
CAUTION : Use of excessive force, during insertion, can result
in damage to the module or the base.
