ComBricks User Manual v6.4.0 | January 18| © PROCENTEC 28/219
3 Installation instructions
3.1 Location
ComBricks can be installed everywhere in a non-hazardous area that complies with IP 20 (DIN 40 050) and a
specified maximum operating temperature of +60
o
Celsius. Avoid placing two ComBricks sets above each other;
the generated heat of the lower set will add to the ambient temperature for the upper set. Furthermore, make
sure the generated heat can disperse by using forced ventilation or active cabinet cooling.
Please note: the temperature displayed in the webserver is the temperature
inside the Head Station, not the ambient temperature.
3.2 Position
ComBricks can only be installed horizontally, with the cables pointing down. In this position the generated heat
of the modules can escape through the grid in the top of the housing. It is also easier to read the status LEDs in
the horizontal position.
3.3 Mounting and un-mounting backplane units
The backplane of the ComBricks has to be mounted on 35 mm DIN-rail with a minimum width of 50 mm to fit a
fixed backplane for 2 modules.
Fig. 17 illustrates how to mount and dismount the backplane on and from the DIN-rail. For the un-mounting an
appropriate screwdriver is required.
