MFD8 MFD12
When selecting a mounting location for the NN3D MFD8/12, keep the following in mind:
• The temperature and humidity of the mounting location should be moderate and
stable.
• Install the unit away from exhaust pipes and ventilators.
• 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 motors
and generators.
• For maintenance and checking purposes, leave sufficient space from the sides and the
rear of the unit and leave slack in cables. Minimum recommended space is shown the
outline drawing for the display units.
•Test and Confirm that the Operator LCD Viewing Angle, which is fixed, is acceptable
before permanent MFD8/12 installation. This is very important for Flush Mount
Installations!
• A magnetic compass will be affected if the display unit is placed too close to it.
Observe the compass safe distances shown in the SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS to prevent
disturbances to the magnetic compass.
The MFD8/12 can be flush or bracket mounted in a variety of ways.
