Panel Mounting Procedure Using Modules as a Template

The following procedure allows you to use the assembled modules as a
template for drilling holes in the panel. If you have sophisticated panel
mounting equipment, you can use the dimensional template provided on
page 6. Due to module mounting hole tolerance, it is important to follow
these procedures:

1. On a clean work surface, assemble no more than three modules.

2. Using the assembled modules as a template, carefully mark the center of

all module-mounting holes on the panel.

3. Return the assembled modules to the clean work surface, including any

previously mounted modules.

4. Drill and tap the mounting holes for the recommended M4 or #8 screw.

5. Place the modules back on the panel and check for proper hole

alignment.

6. Attach the modules to the panel using the mounting screws.

7. Repeat steps 1 to 6 for any remaining modules.

DIN Rail Mounting

The module can be mounted using the following DIN rails: 35 x 7.5 mm
(EN 50 022 - 35 x 7.5) or 35 x 15 mm (EN 50 022 - 35 x 15).

Before mounting the module on a DIN rail, close the DIN rail latches. Press
the DIN rail mounting area of the module against the DIN rail. The latches
will momentarily open and lock into place.

NOTE

If mounting more modules, mount only the last one of
this group and put the others aside. This reduces
remounting time during drilling and tapping of the next
group.
