Installation Notes:
- The up arrow should not point below horizontal.
- Do not solder to or bend terminals.
- Avoid lateral forces and mechanical loads (overly stiff or tight wires).
- Do not rigid mount both ends of the Mercotac.
- Limit the mounting eccentricity (runout / wobble) to .005″ (.13mm).
- Provide overload protection within the circuit.
- Avoid vibration and bumping motions.
