The 30 mm I/O modules have an attachment point on top and on the bottom. You also have
the option of fastening the 30 mm I/O modules at the side. When fastening them at the side,
you must use the supplied spacers.
To mount a 30 mm I/O module, follow these steps:
1. Drill 2 fastening holes with 4.5 mm diameter at a distance of 149.6 mm.
2. Use the supplied spacers for side fastening of the I/O module on the top and bottom (on
one side adjacent to the fastening surface).
3. Fasten the I/O module with the screws to both fastening points (tightening torque 1.2
Nm).
The figure below shows the dimensions for fastening the 30 mm I/O modules using the
example of the DIQ 4+DQ 4x24VDC/0.5A 8xM8 I/O module.
