The DIN-Rail latches and brackets are heavy duty, and will hold the 6K16V securely in

To release the 6K16V from the DIN-Rail mounting, press the top of the two DIN-
Rail latches down simultaneously to release the 6K16V so that it can be dismounted by
pulling the bottom out. Once the bottom of the 6K16V is rotated out, the DIN-Rail latch

cooling (patent pending), and needs to be mounted vertically with air flow space in the
front, rear, and sides.
