The 171 CBU 78090, 171 CBU 98090 and 171 CBU 98091 processor and I/O base assembly can be mounted either on a DIN rail or on a panel. The processors are designed as open equipment per IEC 1131-2, 1.4.20. Install open equipment in industry-standard enclosures, and restrict access to authorized personnel.

The numbers in the following illustration refer to the steps in the procedure below.

The processor assemblies are mounted on a DIN rail in the same manner as other TSX Momentum assembles, as follows:
