flat surface such as a wall, but the particle counter can also be mounted
on or under a table, on the ceiling, inside a vented hood, or a location
close to the point of measurement.

mounting brackets and schemes.
TSI provides an optional mounting bracket (TSI P/N 700008) that allows
the particle counter to be easily mounted and removed on a surface (see
