Install the Switch
Follow these procedures to install the switch.
Mount the Switch
Mount the switch vertically on a horizontal DIN rail, either free-standing or at
the rear of the control cabinet. You can mount the switch adjacent to another
Stratix 2000 switch.
WARNING: An electrical arc can occur:
•
if you connect or disconnect the communication cable with
power applied to this module or any device on the network.
•
if you connect or disconnect wiring while the field-side power is
on
This can cause an explosion in hazardous location installations. Be
sure that power is removed or the area is nonhazardous before
proceeding.
ATTENTION: Failure to mount the switches vertically on a
horizontal DIN rail may result in overheating and switch failure.
