3.1.3. Spacing between modules and other equipment in the panel
The PLC requires some free space around itself. This is necessary to allow the correct device handling. Besides, such space
must be respected to allow the air flow through the PLC, in the convection form, in order to keep the equipment temperature.
Figure 31 and Table 5 indicate the necessary spacing for the Nexto Series modules.
