Note | When aligning several blocks, it is recommended to either place a DIN rail adapter underneath the connection point or a flange element between the blocks.
For versions with 6 or 7 connections, it is enough to place one DIN rail adapter centrally per block and place flange elements after every other block.
Depending on the application case and mechanical load, other arrangements of the mounting accessory can also be chosen.
When using the DIN rail adapter PTFIX-NS35, an aligned block must not protrude by more than a half. | Rotation speed | 9 rpm |
