X16 MADI Merge Unit
Revision MM2006-1
2.2
Operational Considerations
AC mains voltage
The X16 is intended for use throughout the world and therefore the
internal power supply allows operation through the following AC
mains voltages:
Mains voltage: 90v - 250v AC
Mains frequency: 50/60Hz
AC mains connection
The rear panel of the X16 houses the AC mains inlet on an IEC style
connector. The mains cable supplied with the X16 is also fitted with
a moulded IEC connector. Excluding UK and USA models, no plug
has been fitted to this mains lead, therefore this will need to be wired
(see
). Obtain professional advice from a qualified
electrician if unsure.
2.3
Cleaning
Before cleaning the X16, make sure the unit is switched off and the
mains plug is removed from the socket.
Only use a mildly damp cloth to clean the X16. Never use any do-
mestic or commercial cleaning agents as these can cause damage
to external surfaces and components.
2.4
Installation
When fixing the X16 into any 19” rack mount frame, take into ac-
count the stresses that can be exerted on the rack ears if they are
the only means of support. Damage to the chassis could especially
occur during transportation if the X16 is not supported on rails within
a flight case. Cadac strongly recommends that as well as fixing the
X16 to the frame via the rack ears, support rails also be employed.
