the top when the 6K16V is installed on a DIN Rail.
To install the 6K16V with the DIN-Rail brackets and latches attached to it, hold
the 6K16V 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 6K16V inwards to a vertical position.
The DIN-Rail latches and brackets are heavy duty, and will hold the 6K16V securely in
position, even with cabling attached to the unit.
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
is not engaged and the 6K16V can be moved up and out, free of the DIN-Rail mounting..
The picture below is a front / right-side view of a DIN-Rail mounted 6K16V. It
shows vertical mounting of Magnum 6K16V on a DIN-Rail track for proper convection
cooling of the unit. Note that there is air space in the rear, as the 6K16V unit is held out
from the rear of the panel by the mounting brackets. The 6K16V design uses the case for
cooling (patent pending), and needs to be mounted vertically with air flow space in the
front, rear, and sides.
