■
Observe the technical data of the device when selecting an installation location.
■
For typical space requirements for the device, see type-specific dimensional draw‐
ing and reading field diagram.
■
To prevent condensation, avoid exposing the device to rapid changes in tempera‐
ture.
■
Protect the device from direct sunlight.
■
The device must only be mounted using the pairs of blind tapped holes provided
