  • Patent number: 10785886
    Abstract: A mounting device for a consumer grade controller that allows for installation in an industrial application with reliability improvement features. The consumer grade controller is mounted to the mounting device using screws and standoffs, which securely fasten the consumer grade controller to the mounting device. The mounting device is compatible with an industry standard DIN rail allowing for easy installation and removal. The mounting device positions the consumer grade controller vertically with respect to the DIN rail to provide improved cooling and reduce DIN rail space. A power cable is secured with a built-in strain relief feature and held in place with a tie wrap to maintain pressure on the cable and preventing it from accidentally releasing. The mounting device, standoffs, and strain relief feature can be injected molded in one assembly for low cost manufacturing while still providing all the benefits that an industrial application requires.
