Module Spacing

Maintain spacing from objects such as enclosure walls, wireways and adjacent equipment. Allow
50.8 mm (2 in.) of space on all sides for adequate ventilation. If optional accessories/modules are
attached such as the power supply 2080-PS120-240VAC or expansion I/O modules, make sure
that there is 50.8 mm (2 in.) of space on all sides after attaching the optional parts.

DIN Rail Mounting

The module can be mounted using the following DIN rails: 35 x 7.5 mm x 1 mm
(EN 50 022 - 35 x 7.5).

Before mounting the module on a DIN rail, use a flat-blade screwdriver in the DIN rail latch and
pry it downwards until it is in the unlatched position.

1. Hook the top of the DIN rail mounting area of the controller onto the DIN rail, and

then press the bottom until the controller snaps onto the DIN rail.

2. Push the DIN rail latch back into the latched position.

Use DIN rail end anchors (Allen-Bradley part number 1492-EA35 or 1492-EAHJ35)
for vibration or shock environments.

To remove your controller from the DIN rail, pry the DIN rail latch downwards until it is in the
unlatched position.

Panel Mounting

The preferred mounting method is to use four M4 (#8) screws per module. Hole spacing
tolerance: ±0.4 mm (0.016 in.).

Follow these steps to install your controller using mounting screws.

1. Place the controller against the panel where you are mounting it. Make sure the

controller is spaced properly.

2. Mark drilling holes through the mounting screw holes and mounting feet then remove

the controller.

3. Drill the holes at the markings, then replace the controller and mount it.

Leave the protective debris strip in place until you are finished wiring the controller and
any other devices.

TIP

For environments with greater vibration and shock concerns, use the panel
mounting method, instead of DIN rail mounting.
