3.3 DIN-Rail Mounting
The Magnum 6K8 is designed for use in a “factory floor” industrial
environment. It is available with optional DIN-Rail brackets to mount it securely in a
metal factory floor enclosure, maintained vertically for proper convection cooling of the
unit. The Magnum 6K8 requires two DIN-Rail mounting clips or latches for secure
mounting, and these may be ordered as Model # DIN-RAIL-6K8. See a 6K8 viewed
from the rear, at right, with model DIN-RAIL-6K8 in place on the unit.

The Din Rail Latching clips are mounted on the
upper rear corners of the 6K8 unit. Two threaded
holes are provided on the sides of 6K8 for DIN-
Rail mounting purposes. See side view at the left,
with the top of the unit pointed to the right. The
required two screws are included with the DIN-
Rail brackets, and are no.10-32 X 3/8 PHIL. PAN w/star washer. The two heavy-duty
Din-Rail latches are designed as if that they can be manually accessed from the top when
the 6K8 is installed on a DIN Rail.
To install the 6K8 with the DIN-Rail brackets and latches attached to it, hold the
6K8 in the vertical position with the bottom out, and with the top moved in toward the
DIN-Rail. Position the latches over the top of the DIN-Rail. Then, snap the latches into
holding position by moving the bottom of
the 6K8 inwards to a vertical position. The
DIN-Rail latches and brackets are heavy
duty, and will hold the 6K8 securely in
position, even with cabling attached to the
unit.
To release the 6K8 from the DIN-
Rail mounting, press the top of the two
DIN-Rail latches down simultaneously to
release the 6K8 so that it can be
dismounted by pulling the bottom out.
