About this task
To mount a field controller directly on a wall or other flat vertical surface:
Procedure
- Pull the two bottom mounting clips outward and ensure they are locked in the extended position as shown in Figure 1.
- Mark the mounting hole locations on the wall using the dimensions in Figure 1 and one of the mount positions shown in Figure 1. Or hold the controller up to the wall or surface in a proper mount position and mark the hole locations through the mounting clips.
- Drill holes in the wall or surface at the marked locations, and insert appropriate wall anchors in the holes (if necessary).
-
Hold the controller in place, and insert the screws through the mounting clips and into the holes (or anchors). Carefully tighten all of the screws.
Important: Do not overtighten the mounting screws. Overtightening the screws may damage the mounting clips.Figure 1. Back of Controller showing extended mounting clips, DIN rail channel, and mounting dimensions, mm (in.)
