INSTALLATION
The ReFlex Power™ AC power supply module has been fully calibrated and
tested prior to shipment; the modules are ready for immediate use upon receipt.
However, when first unpacked, the module should be inspected to ensure that no
shipping damage has occurred.

NSPECTION
Perform a visual inspection of the shipping container prior to accepting the
package from the carrier. If damage to the shipping container is evident, a
description of that damage should be noted on the carrier's receipt and signed by
the carrier's driver.
Verify that the proper module and associated accessories have been received.
Perform a visual inspection of the module after it is removed from the shipping
container. Check for shipping damage such as dents, scratches, or distortion of
the enclosure.
If external damage is evident, there may be internal damage as well. Immediately
contact the carrier and file a claim for concealed damage. In addition, the
shipping container and filler material should be saved for inspection. Forward a
report of the damage to the Customer Care Department where an associate will
provide instructions for repair or replacement of the unit.

ONSIDERATIONS
The AC power supply module is designed for use within the ReFlex Power™
Mainframe. A standalone module could be inserted within any slot of the
Mainframe. Parallel-grouped, and Multi-phase grouped modules must occupy
contiguous slot locations. Unused slots are allowed within the parallel group, but
they must be occupied by a filler panel and no other modules may be placed
between paralleled modules; also, the group could extend across two
Mainframes.
Since the module is fan–cooled, it requires adequate clearance at the air intake
of the front panels so that airflow is not impeded.

EQUIREMENTS
Provide adequate clearance for adequate air intake through the front panels
and exhaust through the rear.
Ensure that the ambient air temperature at the front panel air intake does not
exceed 55°C.
Install filler panel(s) in any empty slot(s) of the Mainframe.
CAUTION
Inadequate airflow and excessive ambient air temperature could result
in overheating and thermal shutdown.
