2.2.
Site Considerations
The CC10X is designed to operate on a bench-top or in an instrument rack. Determine how you want to use your
crate and follow the appropriate installation instructions.
WARNING :
CC10X crates are not designed to operate vertically on the bench. In this position, the bottom air
outlets are blocked and cooling is not assured. Also small objects can fall in the upper air inlets and
create an electrical shock hazard.
When the optional carrying handles and feet XC113, XC115 or XC118 are installed, it is very
important to read the appendix 4.5 and to respect the instructions of safety.
The apertures along both sides of the crate allow power supply and modules cooling. Air enters through inlets
located on right side of the crate and exits through the outlets on the left.
CAUTION :
Keep other equipment a minimum of 75mm (3in.) away from the air inlets and outlets.
2.3.
Rack Mounting
Rack mounting applications require an optional rack-mount adapter with or without optional handles. These adapter
and handles allows the mounting of the crate in a standard 19inch instrumentation rack.
CC10X crates have two sets of taped holes allowing the rack-mount adapter to be fixed either at the front or at the
rear of the crate. This flexibility is provided to permit the wiring of signal cables from the front or from the back of
the instrumentation rack. Mains switching has also been duplicated with one switch located on the front panel and an
other one on the rear panel of the CC10X.
For further information, refer to the paragraph
3.6.3 Rack Mounting Dimensions
and appendix
4.1, 4.2, 4.3 and 4.5
Specifications and Assembly Instructions.
2.4.
AC Mains Power
2.4.1.
Connecting to AC Mains Power
CAUTION :
Make sure that one, or both, main power switches are in the 0 position (OFF) before connecting the
power cord to AC mains power.
The front and rear panel main switches are serially connected. Both switches must be
1 (ON)
to turn on the power
supply, and they can be used independently to turn on or set off the crate.
The power supply is universal, which means the crate can connect to all standard worldwide input voltages. Attach
input power through the rear panel AC Line inlet using the appropriate power cord supplied. Refer to the paragraph
1.7. Packaging and Handling
for the power cord specification.
2.4.2.
Fuse
WARNING :
Disconnect the power cord before replacing the fuses.
There are two cases.
The power-line fuses are located within the crate’s power cord assembly on the rear panel. The correct value of
the fuses for all line voltages is the following :
CC103
5x20mm slow-blow fuse: T 4A H 250V
Acqiris PN: EF010400A
CC105 and CC108 low power
5x20mm slow-blow fuse: T 6.3A H 250V Acqiris PN: EF010630A
CC108 and CC108-600
5x20mm slow-blow fuse: T 10A H 250V Acqiris PN: EF011100A
WARNING :
The value of the F1 and F2 power line fuses depend of the AC power input voltage. For safety
reasons, please follow the instructions shown in the table below.
Disconnect the power cord before replacing the fuses.
