3.1 - MOUNTING
The MD4M-O is mounted by fastening its mounting brackets to a flat surface.
Dimensions are shown in Figure 3.1. If the Drive/Oscillator assembly is
mounted against a bulkhead, be sure to apply a thin coating of thermal com-
pound (such as Dow Corning type 340 Silicone Heatsink Compound) be-
tween the Drive/Oscillator and the mounting surface before fastening the unit
in place. Do not use too much thermal compound. It is better to use too little
than too much.

NOTE: Case temperature must not 70° C (+158° F).
When selecting a mounting location, it is important to leave at least two
inches (51mm) of space around the top, bottom and sides of the unit to allow
proper airflow for cooling.
It is also important to keep the MD4M-O away from obvi ous electrical noise
sources. If possible, locate the unit in its own metal enclosure to shield it and
its wiring from electrical noise sources. If this cannot be done, keep the unit
at least three feet (0.9 m) from any noise sources.
