DIN Rail dimensions #11

Open dreedijk opened 2 years ago

dreedijk commented 2 years ago

Hi MirageC, I have printed the parts and everything fits nicely together and looks great! Well done! What is the DIN rail you used? While all the parts fit well together, the box does not fit on the DIN rail. It is a commonly used 35mm wide rail (DIN rail TS35x7.5). The clips are too small, I need to apply extreme force to even get close. Any harder and it will break. Dave

Hi, thanks for the feedback.
The distance between notches is 35mm flat. The best way to install is to engage the springy tab first then slightly stretch it to reach the other one. I have a few of these clips and they work great so far.

That does work (you have some extra leverage), but it is still a very tight fit :-) I'm used to apply DIN clips from the top down.

Right, removed the case and one of the clips broke clean off... I think I'd prefer a separate clip that is screwed on the brace (not an all in one solution)
