4. Mounting

4.1 Mechanical mounting

The PLS can either be mounted directly using the appropriate
tapholes in the housing, or by using mounting kits. Please re-
fer to the dimensional drawings of the PLS and the mounting
kits in the appendix, as well as additional notes regarding the
choice of the correct mounting location in the technical de-
scription.
Note: When installing on systems with severe vibrations you
should use thread-locking agents or mechanisms to prevent
unintentional loosening of setscrews and mounting screws,
and regularly check that these screws are secure.

4.2 Electrical installation

When connecting the PLS you can either terminate the power
supply plug yourself and decide whether you want the cable to
come out of the top or the bottom, or you can use ready-made
cables in varying lengths (cable exit only out of the top).
The communication connection to the PLS is made using a
screened data cable (see chapter Accessories in the technical
description).
