  • Consider the available space in the vehicle or equipment where the DCDC converter will be installed
  • Take into account any size constraints or limitations specified by the project requirements
  • Choose mounting hardware that is suitable for the environment and application
  • Consider factors such as vibration, shock, and temperature when selecting mounting techniques
  • Incorporate heat sinks, fans, or other cooling devices to dissipate heat generated by the DCDC converter
  • Ensure proper airflow and ventilation to prevent overheating of components
  • Allow sufficient space around the DCDC converter for maintenance and airflow
  • Ensure there is enough clearance between components to prevent interference or overheating issues
