Rack Mounting
Installation environment caution:
1.
Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed
or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient
temperature of the rack environment may be greater
than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be
given to installing the equipment in an environment
compatible with the maximum ambient temperature
(Tma) specified by the manufacturer.
2.
Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in
a rack should be such that the amount of air flow
required for safe operation of the equipment is not
compromised. Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the
equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous
condition is not created due to uneven mechanical
loading.
3.
Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to
the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit
and the effect that overloading of the circuits might
have on over-current protection and supply wiring.
Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate
ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
4.
Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-mounted
equipment should be maintained. Particular attention
should be given to supply connections other than
direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of
power strips).”
CAUTION :
Slide/rail mounted equipment is not to be used as a
shelf or a work space.

Screw pack: 1. countersink screws and conical washers
for outer rail mout
2. ear-bracket screws.
3. crosshead threaded screws for inner rail mount
Inner Rail Installation
Use the following procedures to attach the inner rails to
the chassis.
1. Position the inner rail alongside the side of the
system’s chassis with the finger tab facing outward as
shown in the following diagram.
2. Align the screw holes of the rail and the mounting
holes of the chassis and then attach the inner rail to
the system with crosshead threaded screws.
3. Repeat the above steps for the other rails on the same
side (two inner rails need to be installed on each
side).
4. Attach the front ear bracket (short) to the system.
5. Likewise, attach the inner rails and front ear bracket
to the other side of system’s chassis.
Mounting the outer rails to the rack
Use the following procedures to mount the outer rails to
the rack.
1. Install the outer rail by attacking the rail bracket
to the posts of the rackby using two countersink
screws and conical washers(You may also use the
original manufacture’s rack bracket screws.) Do not
completely tighten the screws; leave them loose so
that the middle rail can slide for adjustment.
2. Extend and adjust the rear bracket to meet the
appropriate depth of the rack and install it to the rack
post firmly with rack bracket screws.
3. Repeat step 1 and 2 above to install the other rail to
the rack.
