3.1 Placement
A horizontal DIN rail, mounted on the vertical rear surface of an industrial steel enclosure, is the intended method of mounting. The rail release clip of the G122-829A001 should face down, so the front panel and terminal identifications are readable and so the internal electronics receive a cooling airflow.
An important consideration for the placement of the module is electro magnetic interference (EMI) from other equipment in the enclosure. For instance, VF and AC servo drives can produce high levels of EMI. Always check the EMC compliance of other equipment before placing the G122-829A001 close by.
3.2 Cooling
Vents in the top and bottom sides of the G122-829A001 case provide cooling for the electronics inside. These vents should be left clear. It is important to ensure that equipment below does not produce hot exhaust air that heats up the G122-829.
