Heat Radiation and Installation


Design the control panel size, controller layout and cooling method in such a way that the temperature around the
controller will not exceed 40

C.


Install the controller vertically on a wall, as shown below. Since cooling is provided by way of natural convection,
always observe this installation direction and provide a minimum clearance of 50 mm above and below the
controller to ensure sufficient natural airflows.

When installing multiple controllers side by side, providing a ventilation fan or fans above the controllers will help
maintain a uniform temperature around the controllers.

Keep the front panel of the controller away from the wall (enclosure) by at least 100 mm.

















Regardless of whether your system consists of a single controller or multiple controllers, provide sufficient
clearances around each controller so that it can be installed/removed easily.
