Installation
Installing the Card Rack
The SSM110 Card Rack is designed for wall or surface mounting. Refer to Figure 2 for the card rack
outline. Consider the following when deciding on a mounting location:
1. Is adequate space to the right side of the card rack for access to the terminal blocks, ac power cable
and printer cable connections provided?
2. Can the mounting surface support the weight of the field cable when it is connected to the card rack?
3. Is a 120 V ac power receptacle located within 6 feet of the card rack? A modular line cord is supplied
with the card rack.
4. If connecting a printer, make sure there is a suitable location to install the printer so that the printer
cable will easily reach the card rack.
Figure 2. Card Rack Outline
To mount the card rack, secure the card rack to the mounting surface using the four slotted mounting
holes on the rear flanges. Use 0.25-inch diameter screws or bolts to support the weight of the card rack,
which is approximately 10 pounds when the plug-in cards are installed.
