4. Mechanical Information and Mounting
4.1. General
Compact 2 Power Modules must be mounted onto a suitable flat metallic surface with sufficiently low thermal resistance to allow
dissipation of the heat produced.
Surface flatness must be =<+ / - 0.2mm over the mounting area
The chosen mounting location must ensure the unit is not subject to vibration levels in excess of the limits specified in section 11.4.1.
Units should be mounted only using the integral mounting holes.
The Compact 2 must be installed in a pollution degree 1 or 2 environment only.
Maximum ambient air temperature allowed around the unit is 50ᵒC.
Do not mount flammable material close to the Compact 2.
Ensure that the ambient temperature range around the unit does not exceed the permissible limits for the Compact 2 given in section 11.1.
Units may be mounted in any orientation.
