A rails.
For wall mounting, exact vertical mounting of the unit must be strictly observed, otherwise
inexact mounting could lead to falsh measuring results of gas flows. An adjustable
distancer device provides a precise alignment of the unit.

The unit can be mounted on a mobile stand that enables and ensures variable site
operation.
The basic unit can be mounted on the mobile stand profile (80x30) by tightening the four
mounting bolts. The mobile stand can be equipped with a stand-alone oxygen,
