Fig. 8 Removal From Mounting Rail - Beckhoff EK1914 Operating Manual

Installation
Use suitable mounting rail fastening
The locking mechanism of the TwinSAFE terminals and the EtherCAT Coupler extends into the
profile of the mounting rail. When mounting the components, ensure that the locking mechanism
does not come into conflict with the mounting screws of the mounting rail. Use flat mounting
connections such as countersunk screws or blind rivets to fasten mounting rails with a height of 7.5
mm under the terminals and couplers.
