2.2 Tips for Rack Mounting RAX 4 Bay-XJ
Elevated Operating Ambient Temperature: If installed in a closed
or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the
rack environment may be greater than room ambient.
Reduced Air Flow: Installation of the equipment in a rack should
be such that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the
equipment is not compromised.
Mechanical Loading: Mounting of the equipment in the rack
should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to
uneven mechanical loading.
Circuit Overloading: Consideration should be given to the con-
nection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that
overloading the circuits might have on over current protection and
supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate
ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
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).
