Mounting and Installation

Product Dimensions

Refer to the diagrams below for detailed measurements (in millimeters).

Mounting Options

The router can be installed in the following ways:

  1. On a Flat Surface: Place the router on a stable, flat surface.
  2. On a Wall: Use the wall-mounting clip provided with the router. Refer to the Wall Mounting section for detailed instructions.
  3. On a DIN Rail: Mount the router using the metal DIN rail clip in compliance with EN 60715 standards. Refer to the DIN Rail Mounting section for additional details.

For most applications involving a built-in router within a switchboard, consider the following environmental types:

  • Non-public industrial environments: Low voltage with high interference.
  • Public environments: Low voltage without high interference.

For both cases, mounting the router to a switchboard eliminates the need for additional immunity or EMC-related examinations under EN 61439-1:2011.

Guidelines for Mounting

In compliance with EN 61439-1:2011, observe the following assembly instructions when mounting the router inside a switchboard:

  • When using whip antennas, maintain a minimum distance of 6 cm from cables and metal surfaces on all sides to minimize interference.
  • Use a lightning conductor for external antennas mounted outside the switchboard.
  • When mounting the router on sheet-steel, use a cable antenna.
  • Bundle power supply and data cables, ensuring:
    • The combined cable length does not exceed 1.5 m.
    • Surge protectors are installed if data cables exceed 1.5 m or run toward the switchboard.
    • Data cables are not bundled with mains voltage cables (230 V/50 Hz or 120 V/60 Hz).
  • Leave sufficient space between connectors for easy cable handling.
  • Use an earth-bonding distribution frame to properly ground the router's grounding screw.

Wall Mounting

Tips

The wall-mounting clip is included as a standard accessory, packed in the accessory box together with four M3×5L screws.

The router can be affixed to a wall or similar surface using the wall-mounting clip. The clip has two holes with a diameter of 4.5 mm for screw placement. Refer to the Product Dimensions section for precise spacing.

Warning

Tighten the wall-mounting clip screws to a maximum torque of 0.6 Nm.

DIN Rail Mounting

Tips

The DIN rail clip is not included as a standard accessory. It can be ordered separately using order code OPT1-DIN-ICR1X-00.

The DIN rail clip can be attached to the router for mounting on a DIN rail compliant with EN 60715 standards. The clip can be rotated into all four positions. The default clip position is shown below.

Warning

When attaching the DIN rail clip, use four M3×5L screws and tighten to a maximum torque of 0.6 Nm.
