Overview
This document provides technical specifications, ordering information, and assembly instructions for various components related to PCB guides and grounding clips, compliant with IEC and IEEE standards.

Specifications

Components are compliant with IEC60297-3 and IEEE1101.10 standards.
PCB guides are available in different lengths (100mm, 160mm, 220mm) and colors (green, light grey, red) with UL94 flammability ratings.
Grounding clips provide electrostatic protection and are tested to IEC 950: 1986 standards.

Ordering Information

PCB guides and grounding clips are available in packs of 10, with specific order codes for each variant.
Coding keys and frame-mounted coding devices are also available, with separate order codes.

Features

PCB guides offer bolt-down facilities for added strength and are available in UL94-V1 and V0 versions.
Grounding clips ensure electrical continuity and do not require screws for installation.
Heavy-duty support extrusions add strength and security for heavy plug-in units.

Assembly Instructions

Guides can be screwed down to a horizontal tapped strip using M2.5 x 5mm security fixing screws.
Grounding clips fit into a pocket in the guide and maintain contact without screw fixings.

Recommendations

Ensure proper installation of grounding clips to provide a ground path for electrostatic charges.
Use coding devices to convert standard guides to IEEE1101.10 specifications for enhanced conductivity.
