5.3. Mounting of the Detector Electronics
The detector electronics can be mounted in two ways:
5.4. Mounting from Above
Use the detachable mounting brackets, which are stored on the back of the detector. These mounting
brackets have to be mounted on the base plate of the detector. Then use the 7mm holes in the mounting
brackets and the two 7mm holes in on the back side of the detector, marked in Figure 9, to bolt the
detector down.
Make sure the mounting brackets are mounted and properly tightened using the four optional M4
screws.
Do not place the detector near heat sources or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust
or mechanical shock.
Good air circulation is essential to prevent internal heat build-up and prolong the life of its
components. Place the detector in a location with adequate air circulation. Make sure the detector has
enough space for proper ventilation (minimum wall distance: 170 mm). Do not operate the detector in a
closed environment.
