Mounting and demounting - terminals with front unlocking

The terminal modules are fastened to the assembly surface with the aid of a 35 mm mounting rail (e.g. mounting rail TH 35-15).

Fixing of mounting rails

The locking mechanism of the terminals and couplers extends to the profile of the mounting rail. At the installation, the locking mechanism of the components must not come into conflict with the fixing bolts of the mounting rail. To mount the recommended mounting rails under the terminals and couplers, you should use flat mounting connections (e.g. countersunk screws or blind rivets).

WARNING
Risk of electric shock and damage of device!

Bring the bus terminal system into a safe, powered down state before starting installation, disassembly or wiring of the Bus Terminals!

Mounting

  • Fit the mounting rail to the planned assembly location.
  • Mounting and demounting - terminals with front unlocking 1:
    and press (1) the terminal module against the mounting rail until it latches in place on the mounting rail (2).
  • Attach the cables.

Demounting

  • Remove all the cables.
  • Lever the unlatching hook back with thumb and forefinger (3). An internal mechanism pulls the two latching lugs (3a) from the top hat rail back into the terminal module.
  • Mounting and demounting - terminals with front unlocking 2:
  • Pull (4) the terminal module away from the mounting surface.
    Avoid canting of the module; you should stabilize the module with the other hand, if required.
