Carrier Rail Properties

All system components can be snapped directly onto a carrier rail in
accordance with the European standard EN 50022 (DIN 35).
Warning
WAGO Kontakttechnik GmbH & Co. KG supplies standardized carrier rails
that are optimal for use with the I/O system. If other carrier rails are used,
then a technical inspection and approval of the rail by WAGO
Kontakttechnik GmbH & Co. KG should take place.
Carrier rails have different mechanical and electrical properties. For the
optimal system setup on a carrier rail, certain guidelines must be observed:
• The material must be non-corrosive.
• Most components have a contact to the carrier rail to ground electro-
• The carrier rail must optimally support the EMC measures integrated into
• A sufficiently stable carrier rail should be selected and, if necessary,
• The geometry of the carrier rail must not be altered in order to secure the
• The base of the I/O components extends into the profile of the carrier rail.
magnetic disturbances. In order to avoid corrosion, this tin-plated carrier
rail contact must not form a galvanic cell with the material of the carrier
rail which generates a differential voltage above 0.5 V (saline solution of
0.3% at 20°C) .
the system and the shielding of the bus module connections.
several mounting points (every 20 cm) should be used in order to prevent
bending and twisting (torsion).
safe hold of the components. In particular, when shortening or mounting
the carrier rail, it must not be crushed or bent.
For carrier rails with a height of 7.5 mm, mounting points are to be riveted
under the node in the carrier rail (slotted head captive screws or blind
rivets).
