DIN-Rail Mounting and Dismounting Instructions

ATTENTION: The NFI-Series switches are open-type devices and shall be DIN mounted or wall mounted (NFI-U05 and NFI-U08-1 only) in a rack enclosure. The ambient temperature should not exceed 75°C (167°F).

• Mounting the Switch
  Place the switch on the DIN rail from above using the built-in slot. Push the front of the switch toward the mounting surface until it snaps into place. You will hear a “click” to indicate it has successfully snapped into place.

• Dismounting the Switch
  Press the switch from the top, then pull out the lower edge of the switch to remove it from the DIN rail.

ATTENTION: A corrosion-free DIN mounting rail is advisable. When mounting the switch, be sure to allow enough space between devices to install the cabling and to ensure proper airflow.

Wall-Mounting Installation for NFI-U05 and NFI-U08-1 Only

Wall-Mounted Mask (NFI-U05 Only)

1. Mount the switch by using mounting holes on the wall at the appropriate places.
2. The switch can be wall mounted either vertically or horizontally.

Wall-Mounted Mask (NFI-U08-1 Only)

1. Remove the DIN rail kit before wall mounting.
2. Mount the switch by using mounting holes on the wall at the appropriate places.
3. The switch can be wall mounted either vertically or horizontally

Grounding the Switch

Grounding and wire routing help limit the effects of line noise caused by electromagnetic interference (EMI). Run the ground connection from the ground screw to the grounding surface, then connect the ground connection from the terminal block to the grounding surface prior to connecting devices.

ATTENTION : This switch is intended for mounting on a well-grounded surface, such as a metal panel

Wiring Requirements

WARNING: Safety measures should be taken before connecting the power cable. Turn off the power before connecting modules or wires. The correct power supply voltage is listed on the product label. Check the voltage of your power source to make sure you are using the correct voltage. DO NOT use a voltage greater than what is specified on the product label.

• Use minimum 24AWG power cable wire when connecting.
• Use a Power Supply that provides a Limited Power Source. These power supply are generally marked LPS.
• Be sure to observe the polarity when connecting. Not following polarity can damage your unit and void your warranty.

Please read and follow these guidelines:

• Use separate paths to route wiring for power and devices. If power wiring and device wiring paths must cross, make sure the wires are perpendicular at the intersection point.
  Note: Do not run signal or communications wiring and power wiring through the same wire conduit. To avoid interference, wires with different signal characteristics should be routed separately.

• You can use the type of signal transmitted through a wire to determine which wires should be kept separate. Wiring that shares similar electrical characteristics can be bundled together.

• You should separate input wiring from output wiring.

• Be advised that you should label the wiring to all devices in the system.

Wiring Power Input

NFI-U05 with 3-Pin Terminal Block

Check the polarity while connecting. Top view of the Terminal Block is shown in the figure below:

CAUTION:

• Use copper conductors only.
• Wiring cable temperature should support at least 105˚C (221˚F).
• Tighten the wire to a torque value of 0.5 N•m (4.5 in•lb). with green connector.
• The wire gauge for the terminal block should range between 12~24 AWG with green connector and 12~22 AWG with gray connector.

To insert the power wire and connect the 12~48V DC at a maximum of 0.15A DC power to the power terminal block, follow the steps below:

• Use a flathead screwdriver to loosen the wire-clamp screws.
• Insert the negative/positive DC wires into the ( – / +) terminals, respectively.
• Tighten the wire-clamp screws to prevent the wires from loosening

ATTENTION: Use a power supply from 12~48V DC. The device power shall be supplied by SELV circuit.

NFI-U08-1 with 3-Pin Terminal Block

Note : The 3-Pin Terminal Block is integrated to switch case. The NFI-U08-1 is designed to face forward and requires more space. It utilizes a different type of terminal block (gray color) commonly known as a PCB terminal block, as it is directly mounted in the PCBA. The NFI-U08-1 model does not require an additional male connector like the NFI-U05 and NFI-U08-2 models.

Check the polarity while connecting. Top view of the Terminal Block is shown in the figure below:

CAUTION:

• Use copper conductors only.
• Wiring cable temperature should support at least 105˚C (221˚F).
• The wire gauge for the terminal block should range between 12~22 AWG.

To insert the power wire and connect the 18~30V DC at a maximum of 0.5A DC power to the power terminal block, follow the steps below:

• Use a flathead screwdriver to push in and open the wire clamp.
• Insert the negative/positive DC wires into the ( – / +) terminals, respectively.
• Tighten the wire clamp by releasing the screwdriver to prevent the wires from loosening.

ATTENTION : Use a power supply from 18~30V DC. The device power shall be supplied by SELV circuit.

NFI-U08-2 with 2-Pin Terminal Block

You can use “PWR” for Power input. Top view of the Terminal Block is shown in the figure below:

CAUTION:

• Use copper conductors only.
• Wiring cable temperature should support at least 105°C (221˚F).
• Tighten the wire to a torque value 0.5 N•m (4.5 in•lb).

Note: The NFI-U08-2 wire gauge for the terminal block should range between 12 and 24 AWG. Power input is 18~30VDC at a maximum of 0.2A DC power.

To insert power wire and connect the 12~48VDC at a maximum of 0.2A DC power to the power terminal block, follow these steps:

• Use a flat-head screwdriver to loosen the wire-clamp screws.
• Insert the negative/positive DC wires into the PWR-/PWR+ terminals, respectively.
• Tighten the wire-clamp screws to prevent the wires from loosening.

ATTENTION: Use a power supply from 12~48VDC. The device power shall be supplied by 61010-2-301 R/C power with SELV, Limited energy output

Cabling

Connect one end of an RJ45 Ethernet cable (see Optional Accessories) into the switch’s RJ45 Ethernet port. Connect the other end to a network device. Cat5e cable or above is recommended.
All ports support Fast Ethernet (10/100Base-T), as well as auto-negotiation and auto MDI/MDI-X to eliminate the need for crossover cabling.
