TMR Processors. The Chassis assembly has screw

positions, four on each flange, that are used to enable secure attachment to the side brackets on the
frame.

Modules are inserted by sliding them carefully into their slot position, ensuring that the ‘U’-channels of
the module top and bottom casings engage the raised guides of the upper and lower chassis plates.
Ejector levers on the modules secure the handle-less modules within the Chassis.

A 90mm space must be provided between chassis on a frame to assist the cooling process.
