Do not mount shunt
module on its side.
Do not mount temperature
sensitive components above
the shunt module.
1.25 mm (0.5 in.) min clearance on
each side of the shunt module.
5 mm (2 in.) min clearance
above the shunt module.
2.5 mm (1.0 in.) min clearance
in front of the shunt module.
5 mm (2 in.) min clearance
below the shunt module.
1.25 mm (0.5 in.) min clearance on
each side of the shunt module.
ATTENTION
The shunt module can release a large amount of heat
over time.
Any materials above the shunt module or its
enclosure may need the protection of a metal plate
to keep from deteriorating.
Failure to observe this precaution could result in
damage to surrounding materials, possibly leading to
fire.
ATTENTION
The shunt module can release a large amount of heat
inside an enclosure.
Be sure there is enough ventilation so as the
maximum ambient temperature of 40 °C (104 °F) is
not exceeded. Power performance must be
decreased 5.5 W for every 1.0 °C (3.1 °F) of
increasing ambient temperature.
Failure to observe this precaution could result in
damage to the shunt module.
