Warnings and cautions
Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install or maintain FortiGate-5000 series
equipment. Read and comply with all warnings, cautions and notices in this document.
• Turning off all power switches may not turn off all power to the FortiGate-5000 series equipment. Some
circuitry in the FortiGate-5000 series equipment may continue to operate even though all power
switches are off. Follow all instructions in the procedures in this document for disconnecting
FortiGate-5000 series equipment from power sources, telecommunications links and networks before
installing, or removing FortiGate-5000 series components, or performing other maintenance tasks.
Failure to do following these instructions can result in personal injury or equipment damage.
• Install FortiGate-5000 series chassis at the lower positions of a rack to avoid making the rack top-heavy
and unstable.
• Do not insert metal objects or tools into open chassis slots.
• Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage FortiGate-5000 series equipment. Only perform the
procedures described in this document from an ESD workstation. If no such station is available, you
can provide some ESD protection by wearing an anti-static wrist strap and attaching it to an available
ESD connector such as the ESD sockets provided on FortiGate-5000 series chassis.
• Make sure all FortiGate-5000 series components have reliable grounding. Fortinet recommends direct
connections to the building ground.
• If you install a FortiGate-5000 series component in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating
ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Make sure the
operating ambient temperature does not exceed Fortinet’s maximum rated ambient temperature.
• Installing FortiGate-5000 series equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of airflow required
for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
• FortiGate-5000 series chassis should be installed by a qualified electrician.
• FortiGate-5000 series equipment shall be installed and connected to an electrical supply source in
accordance with the applicable codes and regulations for the location in which it is installed. Particular
attention shall be paid to use of correct wire type and size to comply with the applicable codes and
regulations for the installation / location. Connection of the supply wiring to the terminal block on the
equipment may be accomplished using Listed wire compression lugs, for example, Pressure Terminal
Connector made by Ideal Industries Inc. or equivalent which is suitable for AWG 10. Particular attention
shall be given to use of the appropriate compression tool specified by the compression lug
manufacturer, if one is specified.
