RUGGEDCOM RS900GPF
Installation Guide
Section 2.4
Mounting the Device
The RUGGEDCOM RS900GPF is designed for maximum mounting and display flexibility. It can be equipped with
connectors that allow it to be installed in a 35 mm (1.4 in) DIN rail or directly on a panel.
IMPORTANT!
Heat generated by the device is channeled outwards from the enclosure. As such, it is recommended
that 2.5 cm (1 in) of space be maintained on all open sides of the device to allow for some
convectional airflow.
Forced airflow is not required. However, any increase in airflow will result in a reduction of ambient
temperature and improve the long-term reliability of all equipment mounted in the rack space.
NOTE
For detailed dimensions of the device with either DIN rail or panel hardware installed, refer to
Chapter 5, Dimension
