Types of installation
Unless stated otherwise, the mounting options listed below apply to all devices of the type
SCALANCE X-200RNA.
The SCALANCE X-200RNA devices can be mounted in the following ways:
• Installing on a 35 mm DIN rail
• Wall mounting
Note
Mounting on a SIMATIC S7-300 standard rail is not possible.
NOTICE
Do not cover the ventilation grilles
During installation, select a mounting position so that the ventilation grilles are always free to
achieve adequate cooling. In the standard position, the ventilation grilles are on the top and
bottom of the housing; in the case of SCALANCE X204RNA EEC, they are also on the sides of the
housing.
Minimum clearances
If you install the SCALANCE X-200RNA without forced ventilation or cooling, minimum
clearances must be maintained to neighboring devices or the wall of the housing. By keeping to
the minimum clearances, there is then an adequate stream of air for heat dissipation during
operation. Keep to the following minimum clearances to neighboring devices.
Table 6-1
