CAUTION: The rack must be located in a clean environment. Do not expose the rack to
dripping water or corrosive atmospheres containing carbon dust, metal particles, or
other contaminants. Failure to observe this precaution could result in damage to or
destruction of the equipment.
Use the following procedure to install the Rack and Power Supply
module. Before you begin, make certain that you have provided
enough space for the Rack, wiring, and terminal strips or other
devices that must be mounted near the Rack. Make certain that the
panel is sturdy enough to support the Rack and all modules that it
will hold. Including connectors attached to module faceplates, a
fullyĆloaded 6ĆSlot Rack weighs approximately 40 lbs. A fullyĆloaded
10ĆSlot Rack weighs between 70 and 80 lbs. A fullyĆloaded 16ĆSlot
Rack weighs between 105Ć115 lbs.
Step 1.
Mount the Rack on a panel or cabinet made of heavy
gauge steel sturdy enough to hold the Rack, all of the
hardware modules that will go into the Rack, and the
terminal strip/connector assemblies for I/O modules. The
connector end of each terminal strip/connector assembly
is attached to the appropriate module faceplate. The
terminal strip end of each assembly can be mounted on
the panel itself or on lashing bars attached to the panel.
Refer to the instruction manual for each individual module
in your installation for more specific information. Follow the
procedure below to install the Rack.
a) Drill four holes in the panel using the appropriate
mounting pattern in Appendix D.
b) In each hole, screw in one 1 1/4" 20Ćthread Tap titet
bolt, leaving approximately 1/8" to 1/4" of the thread
exposed.
c) Remove the large nameplate bracket (labeled
AutoMax") from the rack by removing the three screws
near the base holding it to the cable guide area.
d) Position the Rack against the panel at a slight angle so
that the bottom is a few inches away from the panel.
Place the top of the Rack against the panel so that the
upper two bolts are visible through the larger part of
the bolt holes at the top of the Rack.
Carefully slide the Rack down so that the bolts are
wedged in the top (smaller) area of the bolt holes,
while at the same time moving the lower portion of the
Rack toward the cabinet or panel onto the lower bolts.
The lower bolts should be firmly wedged against the
upper edge of the lower bolt holes on the Rack.
Tighten all the bolts.
Step 2.
Mount the Power Supply module in the Rack following the
steps below.
a) Take the Power Supply module out of its shipping
container and antiĆstatic bag, being careful not to
touch the connectors on the back of the module.
b) Remove the two keyswitch keys which are taped to the
front of the module. Insert the module into the leftmost
and widest slot in the Rack. Use a screwdriver to attach
