CPU Rack Installation in a Control Panel

The essential steps of installing an AH Motion Controller system begin with mounting a motion backplane.
The motion controller has to be installed in a closed control box. In order to ensure that the PLC dissipates heat properly,
the space between the motion controller and the control box has to be larger than 50 millimeters.

 Keep the motion controller away from high-voltage equipment, high-voltage wires, and high-voltage motors.
 In order to prevent the temperature of a motion controller from rising, do not install the motion controller vertically on
the bottom/top in the control box.
 Install a motion controller horizontally in the control box, as shown above.
 If you intend to increase the number of modules, you have to leave some space for installing the modules in the control
box.

Mounting a Backplane

 Fixing a backplane by screws
Mount the backplane on a plane by means of M5 screws, as illustrated below. To fix the backplane, you need to
evaluate the length of a screw, the size of a thread, and whether to use a nut according to the actual condition of the
plane unless there are specific specifications for a screw which are indicated in the pictures below.
1. Tighten the M5 screws in the holes indicated by a.
