advise the shipper, then Teledyne API.

2. At least 3” (75 mm) at each side for proper venting.
3. Adequate support for the weight; 55 lb. (25 kg.).
4. Access at the rear for making the pneumatic and electrical connections.
5. Access at the front for occasional scrubber replacement.
6. For safety, the M701 should be operated with the cover on.
