You can panel mount or DIN-rail mount a CompactLogix system. The CompactLogix system must be mounted so that the modules are horizontal to each other.
If you decide to use a DIN rail, use steel, 35 x 7.55mm DIN rails (A-B part number 199-DR1; 46277-3; EN 50022). The DIN rails for all CompactLogix system components must be mounted on a common, conductive surface to be sure of proper electromagnetic interference (EMI) performance.
Ground the System
Ground a CompactLogix system through the:
- non-coated, steel DIN rail.
- panel-mount screw hole containing the ground strap.
