Replacement Considerations with CompactLogix and Compact GuardLogix Systems Chapter 3
Controller Spacing
Controller spacing differs between the 5370 controllers and the 5380
controllers. The graphics in this section are not to scale.
CompactLogix 5370 L3 and Compact GuardLogix 5370 L3 Spacing
Maintain spacing from enclosure walls, wireways, and adjacent equipment.
Leave 50.80 mm (2.00 in.) of space on all sides, as shown. This spacing provides
ventilation and electrical isolation.
CompactLogix 5380 Spacing
Maintain spacing from enclosure walls, wireways, and adjacent equipment.
The minimum distance on all sides of the CompactLogix 5380 system varies
based on the operating temperature, as follows:
• 50.80 mm (2.00 in.) at 55 °C (131 °F)
• 101.60 mm (4.00 in.) at 60 °C (140 °F)
