6.5.4 Grounding the device – mounting on a DIN rail
For mounting on a DIN rail with TBNN-S0-DRS connectors: Screw the enclosed metal
screw into the lower mounting hole of the TBEN-S module.
a The shielding of the M8 flanges of the I/O level is connected to the reference potential of
the installation via the DIN rail and the connector.
a With mounted grounding clip: The shielding of the fieldbus is connected to the reference
potential of the installation via the module grounding of the I/O level.
6.5.5 Grounding the device – mounting on a mounting plate
For mounting onto a mounting plate: Fix the TBEN-S module with an M4 metal screw
through the lower mounting hole.
a The shielding of the M8 flanges for the I/O level is connected to the reference potential of
the installation via the M4 metal screw.
a With mounted grounding clip: The shielding of the fieldbus is connected to the reference
potential of the installation via the module grounding of the I/O level.
