Mounting the Device
The RUGGEDCOM i803 can be ordered with a DIN rail adapter pre-installed on the
back of the chassis. Use the adapter to latch the mount the device to a standard 35
mm (1.4 in) by 15 mm (0.6 in) IEC/EN 60715 or TS35 DIN rail.
NOTICE
Heat generated by the device is channeled outwards from the enclosure. As such, it
is recommended that 2.5 cm (1 in) of space be maintained on all open sides of the
device to allow for some convectional airflow.
Forced airflow is not required. However, any increase in airflow will result in a
reduction of ambient temperature and improve the long-term reliability of all
equipment mounted in the rack space.
