The RMM12 Ra ck Mount supports a single Drake Power

which optimizes rack spac e.

Ins tallation :
Adequate ventilation is very important in multichannel
installations. Ra ck units should be spaced apa rt by at least
one panel height wherever possible, and some air movement
is advisable in enclos ed rack cabinets. E xcessive heat will
shorten the life of components and individual module(s).
Power supply performance will also be degraded without
proper cooling.
If desired, the supplied black end caps can be installed over
the mounting ears of the RMM12 and secured by the rack
support screws.
Locate the Power Supply (sold sepa rately) . P rior to sliding the
power supply into the right-hand side top and bottom slide rails
of the RMM12, loosen the #6-32 scr ew located on the top
surface of the power supply. Position the free end of the
ground wire lug (other end of wire fastened to RMM12) under
the #6-32 scr ew, and tighten the scr ew to secure the ground
wire. Slide the power supply into the RMM12.
If necessa ry, use the following steps to remove the Drake
Power Supply from the rack:
1) Rem ove the module immediately adjacent to the Drake
Power Suppl y. Be aware that the module power ca ble will
become disconnected from the rear when the module is
removed.
2) Now grasp the edge of the Drake Power Supply front panel
and remove the unit from rack.
