A compact WEHO NDR-75-24 specimen can be assessed for an OEM retrofit, but its 32 mm front width must be considered together with full depth, mounting, terminal access and the actual 24 V branch.<\/p>\n<p>A replacement search often begins because rail space is tight. That is a reasonable screening criterion: a candidate must fit the available installation. It is also an incomplete one. A supply that occupies little rail length can still foul the cabinet door, obstruct a conductor bend or lack an interface required by the machine. Treat compactness as a three-dimensional installation question before it becomes a purchasing comparison.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_86 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter
