Box Building & Mounting Hints
If you would like to use a vented enclosure, but the box designs we provide you with (in this manual) do not fit
because of width or depth the designs can be modified. The shape of the enclosure is not vital, but

to insure your enclosure is built correctly.

Remember:
If you are going to bend the port at 90° you will need to add 1/2 of the ports height to the length! See Below.

Example:
(Fig. 1)
H
port
=
3”
W
port
=
10”
L
port
=
20”
(Fig. 2)
Since
H
port
is 3” you need to add 1.5”(
1/2 of
H
port
) to
L
port
. This means that
L¹
+
L²
= 21.5”
Always measure
L¹
and
L²
down the
center to get an accurate measure-
ment!
