Location of the Drive is important to achieve proper performance and normal operating life. The unit
should be installed in an area where it will be protected from:
• Extreme cold and heat. Use only within the ambient temperature range (for open chassis
type): 14 to 122°F (-10 to +50°C) (for enclosed wall mount type): 14 to 104°F (10 to +40°C)
• Rain, moisture
• Oil sprays, splashes
• Salt spray
• Direct sunlight. (Avoid using outdoors)
• Corrosive gases (e.g. sulfurized gas) or liquids
• Dust or metallic particles in the air
• Physical shock, vibration
• Magnetic noise (Example: welding machines, power devices, etc.)
• High humidity
• Radioactive substances
• Combustibles: thinner, solvents, etc.
When preparing to mount the Drive, lift it by its base, never by the front cover. For effective cooling,
as well as proper maintenance, the Drive must be installed on a flat, non-flammable vertical surface
(wall or panel) using recommended mounting screws. There MUST be a MINIMUM 3.9 in.
clearance above and below the Drive to allow air flow over the heat sink fins. A minimum 1.2 in.
clearance is required on each side of the Drive.
Important: To use the CIMR-V7NU25P5, 45P5, and 47P5 Drives as an
open chassis, remove top and bottom covers.
