Mechanical

Dimensions and mechanical guidelines for the HIL Power Link Interface.

Interface Dimensions

The HIL Power Link Interface is designed to be either rack mounted, or placed on falt surface, such as a desk. Dimensions are given in Figure 1.

Additional Equipment

In addition to the device itself, a clip for DIN rail mounting, as well as adhesive pads (if the device is intended to be used on a desk) are provided.

When mounting on a DIN rail, it is necessary to unscrew the two middle screws, place the clip in the center, and then screw them back into place as shown in Figure 2.

When the device is intended to be used on a desk, it is necessary to remove the clip for DIN rail mounting, peel off the adhesive pads, and place them in the corners on the underside of the device.
