Versatile 3-Way DIN-Rail Mounting System

The unit’s enclosure is provided with a mounting clip attached to the rear of the unit. This clip allows the unit to be mounted 3 different ways:

For DIN rail mounting, snap the mounting clip onto a standard DIN rail, and then snap the unit enclosure onto the clip’s retaining tabs. This allows easy removal or repositioning of the unit on the DIN rail during wiring.

For panel mounting, the mounting clip can be bolted directly to a flat panel via the two bolt holes at the top and bottom of the clip. Refer to section 2.2 for mounting clip mechanical details. Once the mounting clip is securely attached to the panel, the unit enclosure can be snapped onto the clip’s retaining tabs.

For fixed DIN rail mounting, a combination of the above two techniques can be employed. First, snap the mounting clip onto a DIN rail and position it in its desired location. Then, the mounting clip can be bolted to the DIN rail support panel, securing it in place. Lastly, the unit can be snapped onto the fixed mounting clip.

In all cases, the unit can be easily unsnapped from the mounting clip to temporarily provide easier access to the configuration switches, chassis ground terminal or network connector.
