Mount Dismount 4 1 3 2 1 1. Push the unit in and down to catch the rail hook on top of the rail. 1. Press down on the release tab while rotating the unit up and away from the rail. 2. Rotate the bottom of the unit in toward the rail. 3. The rail clasp will audibly “snap” into place. If the DIN-A-MITE does not snap into place, check to see if the rail is bent. 4. Mount the cooling fins vertically.

Declaration of Conformity DIN-A-MITE® “C” Power Controller Watlow Winona, Inc. 1241 Bundy Blvd. Winona, MN 55987 USA Declares that the following product: English Designation: DIN-A-MITE® “C” Power Control Model Numbers: DC (1, 2, 3, 8 or 9)(0, 1, 2, 3 or T) – (02, 12, 20, 24, 27, 40, 48 or 60)(C0, C1, C2, K1, K2, K3, F0, F1, S0, S1, S2, S3, S4 or S5) – (0, C, D, H or S)(followed by any 3 numbers or letters.
Required External EMI Filters for DIN-A-MITE with More than 6 A Loads An external EMI filter must be used in conjunction with the DIN-A-MITE for loads in excess of six amperes (6 A) at 150 to 250 kHz. Without a filter applied, the DIN-AMITE does not comply with the conducted emissions standard for loads above 6 A at 150 to 250 KHz. çWARNING: The tank filters specified may suppress desirable communications carried on power lines in the 150 to 250 kHz region.
Warranty Returns The Watlow DIN-A-MITE is warranted to be free of defects in material and workmanship for 36 months after delivery to the first purchaser for use, providing that the units have not been misapplied. Since Watlow has no control over their use, and sometimes misuse, we cannot guarantee against failure.
