COOLING REQUIREMENTS

No forced cooling is required. Maintain clearance from adjacent equipment to allow convective
cooling.

2.6

EQUIPMENT LOCATION

The equipment should be installed in the aircraft in a manner consistent with acceptable
workmanship and engineering practices and in accordance with the instructions set forth in this
publication. To ensure that the system has been properly and safely installed in the aircraft, the
installer should make a thorough visual inspection and conduct an overall operational check of
the system on the ground prior to flight.

The installation should be in accordance with standards established by the customer's installing
agency and existing conditions as to unit location and type of installation.

Care should be exercised to avoid mounting components near other equipment that may be
susceptible to 60 Hz alternating current noise. In general the equipment should be installed in a
location convenient for operation, inspection, and maintenance, and in an area consistent with
the environmental limits. Determine the mounting location for system components following
the guidelines below.

2.7

MECHANICAL INSTALLATION

The AGFCI unit is a remote LRU and shall be mounted inside the passenger/pilot envelope or
other remote location such that the environmental conditions do not exceed the conditions set
forth in "Table 1 Technical Characteristics".

As part of the AGFCI unit mechanical installation, ensure that the unit's connectors, LEDs, and
the "RESET", and "TEST" switches are accessible for post-installation and periodic checkouts.

Refer to "Figure 1 AGFCI Dimensions" and "Figure 2 AGFCI Envelope Dimensions" for additional
installation and mounting information.
