The WAGO-I/O-SYSTEM 750
Mechanical Setup
2.6.3 Assembly onto Carrier Rail
2.6.3.1 Carrier rail properties
All system components can be snapped directly onto a carrier rail in accor-
dance with the European standard EN 50022 (DIN 35).
Warning
WAGO 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 ap-
proval of the rail by WAGO Kontakttechnik GmbH should take place.
Carrier rails have different mechanical and electrical properties. For the opti-
mal 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, sev-
• 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) .

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 riv-
ets).
