Mounting the Device

The RUGGEDCOM RS401 is designed for maximum mounting and display flexibility. It
can be equipped with connectors that allow it to be installed on a DIN rail or directly
on a panel.
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
2.3.1

Mounting the Device on a DIN Rail

each side of the chassis. Use the adapters to mount the device to a standard 35 mm
(1.4 in) IEC/EN 60715 or TS35 DIN rail.
Note
The device is available with a front panel or side panel mount option.
