FLEX I/O and FLEX Integra Product Data Overview 5

Mount and Remove Your

System Easily

You can horizontally or vertically mount the FLEX I/O system and

FLEX Integra modules on a standard 35mm DIN rail. The adapter and

FLEX I/O terminal base easily snap on the DIN rail by hand. Use a

flat-blade screwdriver to remove components from the DIN rail.

Screw holes allow you to horizontally or vertically panel-mount your

FLEX I/O system in an enclosure. To panel-mount your FLEX I/O

system, use the optional mounting kit (1794-NM1). An example of a

DIN-rail mounted system is shown below.

When you use FLEX I/O modules in a high-vibration installation, and

particularly when mounting the modules vertically, we recommend

using DIN-rail locks (Allen-Bradley part no. 1492-EA35).

ATTENTION

The hook (on the terminal base) and adjacent

connection point (on the adapter) keep the terminal

bases tight together (see exploded view above).

These components are capable of maintaining a

reliable connection in case of shock and/or

vibration. Refer to the environmental conditions

information in each module’s specifications.
