3.4 Mounting and Wiring the Tambourine 20
For optimum heat dissipation, the Tambourine 20 should be installed with the heat sink attached to
the machine's chassis. When mounting the Tambourine 20 make sure to leave about 1 cm (0.4“)
outward from the heatsink, to enable free air convection around the power supply.
3.4.1 Mounting
Figure 2: Mounting the Tambourine 20
The Tambourine 20 is designed for two standard mounting options (Figure 2):
• Wall Mount along the back (can also be mounted horizontally on a metal surface)
• Book Shelf along the side
1. Use M4 x 8 round head screws, one through each opening in the heat sink, to mount the
Tambourine 20 in position opposite the specific holes drilled.
2. Tighten the screws to just tight. Do not overtighten the screws.
3.4.2 Wiring Guidelines
1. Use flexible wires with the proper cross-section to handle the unit current. Color coding is
recommended.
2. After the wiring is completed, carefully inspect all connections in order to ensure tightness.
