Mounting Instructions
Mounting: Mount only as shown in figure, with input terminals
facing downwards to allow sufficient cooling.
Admissible DIN rails: TS35/7.5 or TS35/15.
To attach the DRP-240 to the rail:
1. Rotate the DRP-240 backwards, as shown in the figure.
2. Fit the top of the DRP-240 over the top hat rail.
3. Slide the DRP-240 downwards until it hits the stop.
4. Push the bottom of the DRP-240 forward until it snaps into
place.
5. Move the DRP-240 back and forth to make sure it is locked in
place.
Installation
1. To prevent the unit from overheating, always allow sufficient
clearance around the unit for proper ventilation: 5 mm left and
right, 40 mm above, and 20 mm below. You should also keep
a 10 to 15 cm clearance from adjacent devices that act as a
heat source.
2. The appropriate mounting orientation is vertical, with input
terminals on the right and output on the left of the DRP-240.
Other mounting orientations, such as upside down, horizontal,
or table-top, are not allowed.

Note:
When 5 or more wires are connected to the unit, the current
carried by each wire could be 20% less than the current listed
above.
Make sure that all strands of each wire are properly inserted
into the terminal connection, and that the screw terminals are
securely fixed to prevent poor contact. If the power supply has
multiple output terminals, make sure each contact is
connected to wires to prevent stress on a single contact from
too much current.
4. Use wire that can withstand temperatures of at least 80°C,
such as UL1007.
5. Suggested fuses and the maximum number of the PSUs that
can be connected to a circuit breaker at 230 V are shown as
below:

6. The recommended wire strapping length is 5 mm (0.197 inch).
7. Use a slotted type 4 mm screwdriver.
