3.3.2 Mounting Dimensions for 6K8 with metal brackets
Each Mangum 6K8 is supplied with metal mounting brackets and screws to
mount the unit securely. It is recommended to mount the 6K8 vertically, as shown below,
for proper cooling and long-life reliability. It is also advisable to mount the unit with
space for air movement around the top and the sides, typically a minimum of 1 inch..
Note that the back of the 6K8 unit is held out from the panel or wall behind it,
creating a rear space of about ¼ inch or 1cm. This allows air circulation and cooling of
the rear part of the case. Since the 6K8 uses special internal thermal techniques (patent
pending) to move the heat generated by the electronic components inside into the case,
the case may be quite warm to the touch during normal operation.
