2.2. Cooling and Ventilation
The display is cooled by the flow of air, or natural convection. Special care must be taken with
the installation to provide a proper environment for air flow.
Monitor vents: The unit is designed with vent openings on the top, bottom, and rear
surfaces. The entire top vent, and either the entire bottom or entire rear vent must be
unobstructed for a minimum of one (1) inch. The vents must also be ducted to free
air.
Ducting: The installation must provide for an inlet duct (at bottom or rear), and an
exhaust duct at the top. Each of these ducts must have a minimum of four (4) square
inches of cross-sectional area.
Note: Display backlight will shut down if internal temperature reaches 140° F.
Note: Each mounting hole includes a 10-32 screw. To install the display, remove only the
screws that will be used to install the display. Do not remove the 4-40 flathead screws.
2.3. Bulkhead Mounting Options
The bulkhead display can be mounted using all mounting holes on rear surface or from any
combination of two sides.
