Mounting Mounting Location and Orientation Options Bosch designed MIC IP 7100i cameras for use in outdoor applications. In an enclosed installation area (for example, in a foundry, near a furnace, etc.), temperatures outside of the camera might exceed +65 °C (+149 °F). If you install a camera in an enclosed area, make sure that the operating temperature of the camera is a maximum of +60 °C (+140 °F).
If the camera is installed in a highly exposed location where lightning strikes may occur, then Bosch recommends installing a separate lightning conductor within 0.5 m (1.6 ft) of the camera and at least 1.5 m (4.9 ft) higher than the camera. A good earth bonding connection to the camera housing itself will provide protection against damage from secondary strikes.

| Mounting MIC inteox 7100i MIC cameras are designed to be mounted upright (straight up, 90°), inverted (straight down, 90°), or canted upright (ball up, 35°). The tilt limits for the canted unit prevent it from working properly if mounted ball down. See the figures below for illustrations of the correct and the incorrect mounting orientations of MIC cameras.
Bosch sells a complete series of mounting brackets that support multiple mounting configurations. Always use only Bosch-supplied mounts, which are designed for safe installation of your MIC camera. Refer to the MIC Series Mounting Brackets Installation Guide for complete installation instructions.
