Inspection
Remove the unit from its shipping container. Any in-shipment damage that may
have occurred should be visually apparent. Look for bent or damaged connectors
or mounting brackets. Claims for damage incurred in shipment should be made
directly to the transportation company in accordance with their instructions. Save
the shipping cartons until installation and performance verification are completed.
2.5
Module Placement
Units may be mounted in any orientation on most flat, dry surfaces. Secure pan-
head screws through mounting holes provided at the base of the module. If the
unit is placed in a location where temperatures may exceed 38°C (100°F), a good
heat sink should be secured. The use of silicone thermal pads is recommended
between the module and the plate to maximize heat transfer.
