Rack mounting  
When installing the device in a closed or multi-rack assembly, please consider  
that, during operation, the ambient temperature within the rack may signi-  
ficantly rise above room temperature. However, the ambient temperature  
within the rack must not exceed the temperature limit specified in the speci-  
fications.  
When installing the device in a rack, take good care not to affect the ventila-  
tion required for safe operation or provide additional ventilation.  
Make sure the mechanical loading of the rack is even to avoid a hazardous  
condition such as a severely unbalanced rack.  
When installing the device in a closed or multi-rack assembly, please note  
that intrinsically harmless leakage currents of the individual devices may  
accumulate, thereby exceeding the allowable limit value. As a remedy,  
ground the rack via an additional ground connection.

MO 2000 Set  
The MO 2000 Set optical microphone system consists of the following main  
components:  
y MO 2000 H optical microphone  
y MO 2000 CU central unit  
The MO 2000 H optical microphone consists of an opto-acoustic microphone  
head which is fitted with a fixed 3 m double fiber optic cable. The fiber optic  
cable is connected to the MO 2000 CU central unit. Power is supplied via an  
external wide voltage range power supply unit.  
The MO 2000 H is an omni-directional microphone designed for picking up air-  
borne sound. The components of the MO 2000 H microphone head (outside  
dimensions: 1/2 inch) are made of plastic suitable for permanent stationary  
use in areas where aggressive substances (gases, salts, moisture) or radia-  
tion are present. All components of the MO 2000 H microphone head are  
metal-free, including the fiber optic cable feed.  
The main areas of application of the optical microphone are acoustic mea-  
surement and communication tasks in industrial environments and EMC-sen-  
sitive areas as well as medical magnetic resonance imaging and magneto-  
encephalographic measurement (MEG). Other applications are to be found in  
the field of non-detectable acoustic surveillance.
