MOUNTING THE DURANET 20-11
After testing is complete, you can mount the DuraNET 20-11 vertically or horizontally.
THERMAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR CHOOSING A MOUNTING LOCATION
The DuraNET 20-11 enclosure is highly efficient at removing heat from the components inside of the unit
to the case. The highest power consumption components are heat sunk directly to the bottom of the unit
where it is expected to be mounted. It is best to mount the unit on a thermally cool, thermally conductive
location to keep the overall temperature as low as possible. Every effort has been made to meet
stringent thermal performance criteria as outlined in the specifications. However, it is always good
practice to keep the DuraNET 20-11 as cool as possible, avoiding external temperature environments
which will not allow the thermal conduction of heat away from the unit.
MOUNTING
To install the DuraNET 20-11 on a mounting surface:
1. Create a hole pattern on the mounting surface that matches the pattern shown in Figure 6.
2. Attach the baseplate to the mounting surface using the four mounting holes. Attachment screws
should be 6x32.
Important!
Ensure that mounting screw length allows proper thread engagement of the mounting hardware.
