Mounting
Observe these guidelines when mounting an FEC
extended temperature controller:
• Ensure the mounting surface can support the FEC,
DIN rail, and any user-supplied enclosure.
• Mount the FEC on 35 mm DIN rail whenever
possible.
• Mount the FEC in the proper mounting position
(Figure 1).
• Mount the FEC on a hard, even surface whenever
possible in wall-mount applications.
• Use shims or washers to mount the FEC securely
and evenly on the mounting surface.
• Mount the FEC in an area free of corrosive vapors
and observe the Ambient Conditions in the
Technical Specifications section.
• Provide for sufficient space around the FEC for
cable and wire connections, easy cover removal,
and good ventilation through the controller (50 mm
[2 in.] minimum on the top, bottom, and front of the
controllers).
• Do not mount the FEC on surfaces prone to
vibration, such as duct work, or in areas where
electromagnetic emissions from other devices or
wiring can interfere with controller communication.
2 FEC16 Extended Temperature Field Equipment Controller Installation Instructions
On panel or enclosure mount applications, observe
these additional guidelines:
• Do not install the FEC in an airtight enclosure.
• Mount the FEC so that the enclosure walls do not
obstruct cover removal or ventilation through the
controller.
• Mount the FEC so that the power transformer and
other devices do not radiate excessive heat to the
controller.
