The RSTi-EP station is usually installed on a horizontally positioned DIN rail.

Installation)
Installation on vertically positioned DIN rails is also possible. In this event, however, the heat
dissipation is reduced such that the derating values change (refer to Section, Current
Demand and Power Supply).
In the case of vertical mounting, the field-bus network adapter must always be arranged as
the first module at the bottom and secured with a reinforced end bracket for vertical
mounting.
