Mount the LMS on a clean DIN rail according to DIN EN 50 022 (e.g., NS 35 ... from Phoenix Contact). To avoid contact resistance only use clean, corrosion-free DIN rails. Before mounting the modules, an end clamp (E/NS 35N, Order No. 0800886) should be mounted on the left-hand side next to the LMS to stop the modules from slipping on the DIN rail.
Pull down the positive latches using a suitable tool (e.g., screwdriver). Both positive latches remain snapped out. Then swivel the bottom of the module away from the DIN rail slightly (A). Next, lift the module upwards away from the DIN rail (B). Figure 1-5 Removing the LMS PHOENIX CONTACT 7278_en_04...
