4.1 Mounting the MXS
• The MXS needs to be mounted in a location protected from weather.
• MXS should be mounted away from sources of excess heat to better guarantee an operating
environment within its designed temperature range. Mount on a heat sink, if necessary, to
maintain device junction temperature below 85°C. With adequate airflow and lower ambient
operating temperatures, the MXS can be mounted directly to the airframe.
• Refer to Section 5.1 Dimension, Weight & Material for mounting dimensions.
• Sagetech recommends applying Loctite 242 Thread locker to the machine screw threads or using
locking washers or locking nuts.
• The hardware listed in Table 4-2 are potential candidates for use in custom installation.
