Rack mounting
UL guidelines for rack mounting
The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines are
relevant to the safe installation of these products in a rack:
Elevated operating ambient temperature — 1. If the unit
is installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the
operating ambient temperature of the rack environment
may be greater than room ambient temperature. Therefore,
install the equipment in an environment compatible with
the maximum ambient temperature (Tma: +122 °F, +50 ° C)
specified by Extron.
Reduced air flow —
2. Install the equipment in the rack so that
the equipment gets adequate air flow for safe operation.
Mechanical loading —
3. Mount the equipment in the rack so
that uneven mechanical loading does not create a hazardous
condition.
Circuit overloading —
4. Connect the equipment to the supply
circuit and consider the effect that circuit overloading might
have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Give
appropriate consideration to the equipment nameplate
ratings when addressing this concern.
