4 Mounting

4.1 Mounting requirements

The device is designed for use in the field.

Its orientation is determined by the readability of the display.

Operating temperature range:

• –40 to +80 °C (–40 to +176 °F)

• –20 to +80 °C (–4 to +176 °F) when the Open Collector output is used

Operating the device in the upper temperature limit range reduces the operating life of

the display.

The display may respond slowly at temperatures < –20 °C (–4 °F).

Readability of the display can no longer be guaranteed at temperatures < –30 °C (–22 °F).
