Mounting
Observe the following guidelines when mounting a CVM/
CVE controller:
• Ensure that the mounting surface can support the
controller and any user-supplied enclosure.
• Mount the controller on a hard, even surface whenever
possible.
• Use shims or washers to mount the controller securely
and evenly on the mounting surface.
• Mount the controller in an area free of corrosive vapors
that matches the ambient conditions specified in the
Technical specifications section.
