The FA-40 can be mounted on a desktop or on a bulkhead. When selecting a mount-
ing location, keep in mind the following points:

• The temperature and humidity should be moderate and stable.
• Locate the unit away from exhaust pipes and vents.
• The mounting location should be well ventilated.
• Mount the unit where shock and vibration are minimal.
• Keep the unit away from electromagnetic field-generating equipment such as mo-
tors and generators.
