Precautions
In order to guarantee that Sundance’s boards function correctly and to protect the
module from damage, the following precautions should be taken:
- They are static sensitive products and should be handled accordingly.
Always place the modules in a static protective bag during storage and transition.
- When operated in a closed environment make sure that the heat generated
by the system is extracted e.g. a fan extracting heat or blowing cool air. Sundance
recommends and uses PAPST 12-Volt fans (Series 8300) producing an air flow of 54
cubic meters per hour (equivalent to 31.8 CFM). Fans are placed so they blow across
the PCI bus as show on the following picture:
