Scalar 1000 Library Overall Dimension Requirements
Import/Export Slot
Maximum Scalar 1000 Library Configuration — An Aerial View
Service Access Area is the 1'6" area behind
the Scalar 1000’s back door clearance.
Planning is key. Given the size of the Scalar 1000, it requires a certain amount of dedicated space for
optimal access. Please consult the layout diagram and size specifications to ensure the ideal Scalar 1000
location is identified before installation.
This Dimension Requirements diagram illustrates the space needed for these major points of access:
ACCESS POINT
PURPOSE
• Import/export mailbox
To load media
• Front cabinet door
To access media and drives
• Back cabinet door
To access cables and allow for service access
If service personnel need to access the back of the Scalar 1000, the door requires 2 feet and 6 inches of
clearance. To properly access the import/export slot at least one foot of clearance is needed. As expansion
modules are added, additional space requirements should be considered. Each expansion module adds
another 2 feet and 6 inches in width. In total, the maximum Scalar 1000 library configuration—one control
module and three expansion modules—is 10 feet in width.
