Before mounting the VMM2404, review the following environmental and
mechanical requirements.
Note: Do not install the VMM2404 near any significant heat sources, such as
a turbo, exhaust manifold, etc. Avoid installing the VMM2404 near any drive-
train component, such as a transmission or engine block.
9.1.2.1. Environmental Requirements
The VMM2404 warranty does not cover damage caused by exposure of the
product to environmental conditions that exceed its design limitations.
1. Mount the VMM2404 in an environment that is within its ambient
temperature range of –40 °C to +85 °C.
2. Mount the VMM2404 in an environment that is within its particle ingress
rating. The sealing standard for the VMM2404 is EP455 level 1.
Note: The VMM2404 has not been tested for water ingress according to the
EP455 level 1 standard.
The VMM2404 is protected from aggressive pressure wash up to 1000 psi at 1 m
(3.28 ft.).
Warning! Damage to equipment. Exercise caution when pressure-
washing the VMM2404. The severity of a pressure wash can exceed the
VMM2404 pressure wash specifications related to water pressure, water
flow, nozzle characteristics, and distance. Under certain conditions a
pressure wash jet can cut wires.
9.1.2.2. Mechanical Requirements
Review the following mechanical requirements before selecting a mounting
location for the VMM2404:
The VMM2404 should be mounted vertically so moisture will drain away
from it.
The wire harness should have drip loops incorporated into the design to divert
water away from the VMM2404.
The harness should be shielded from harsh impact.
The harness should connect easily to the connector and have adequate bend
radius.
The labels and LEDs should be easy to read.
The VMM2404 should be in a location that is easily accessible for service.
