Vertical mounting orientation on expansion I/O modules

[Blitz]

Mounting horizontally an adapter and eight expansion I/O modules would not fit in our cabinet.

So, one option is to mount the modules vertically. I just like to confirm if vertically mounting the modules is allowed and without any effect on the rated specifications and normal operation.

- e.g., since the vent holes would be on the sides when modules are mounted vertically, does the operating temperature gets de-rated from the max. of 50 DegC?

- e.g., any effect on operation of relay modules?

- would it matter whether the adapter module would be on the top side or bottom side of the column--e.g., effect on heat dissipation?

Thanks.

Hi,

Locatging vertically expansion modules is very often applied soluiton. currently no problems with it.
