RACK MOUNT INSTRUCTIONS



A)
Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit

rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack

environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore,

consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an

environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature

(Tma) specified by the manufacturer.

B) Reduced Airflow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be

such that the amount of airflow required for safe operation of the

equipment is not compromised.

C) Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should

be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven

mechanical loading.

D) Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the

connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that

overloading of the circuits might have on over current protection and

supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate

ratings should be used when addressing this concern.

E) Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment

should be maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply

connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g.

use of power strips).

Recommended Tma = 122 deg F, 50 deg C
