Free Space Around the Controller Free Space Around the Controller Free Space Around the Controller Free Space Around the Controller
The controller requires a free space at least 140mm deep (from front to back)
between the rear panel of an enclosure and the inside of an enclosure door. If you
wish to mount the controller on DIN rails, increase this allowance by the additional
depth of the DIN rails.
You must allow sufficient free space around the base units. Every application needs
space on at least three sides, as follows:
Space above, to manipulate and install field wiring
Space below, to enable modules to fit and to be able to grasp a module during
removal
Space to the right, to move an I/O base unit during assembly or in the event of
installing a new base unit
If an expansion cable is to connect to the left-most base unit, the controller also needs
space to the left, to fit the expansion cable adapter.
This illustration shows the minimum recommended clearances for a flat panel or DIN
rail mounting.
