3.2. MECHANICAL DESCRIPTION
The model number and electrical characteristics of the unit are indicated on the label located on the right side of the
relay case.
The metallic case of the unit is highly resistant to corrosion. It is made of stainless steel (AISI 304), coated with an
epoxy layer, and the rest of the metallic pieces are covered with a high quality resistive coating that has successfully
passed at least 96 hours in the salt spray chamber (S/N ASTM B-117).
The front of the relay is made of a conductor thermoplastic, flame retardant (V0), highly resistive material, which
guarantees the unit’s immunity to all kinds of EMI/RFI/ESD interferences. As well, an IP51 (IEC 529) protection
degree against dust and water through the front and with the relay mounted in the panel.
In order to guarantee safety and preventing access to the unit by unauthorized personnel, the front communications
port and the operation mode key are protected by a sealable cover.
3.2.1. MOUNTING
The unit is designed for both semi-flush mounting with the terminals on the back, and rear panel mounting, with the
terminals towards the front. In both cases the relay should be secured to the panel with the M6 screws provided with
the unit.
