Step 4. Install the System on a Bench Top or in an
Equipment Rack
The test system can be installed on a bench top or in an equipment rack.
In all installations, consider the following ventilation requirements when deciding
where to set up your test system.
CAUTION
Ventilation Requirements:
When installing the product in a cabinet, the convection into and out of the
product must not be restricted. The ambient temperature (outside the
cabinet) must be less than the maximum operating temperature of the
instrument by 4
°
C for every 100 watts dissipated in the cabinet. If the total
power dissipated in the cabinet is greater than 800 watts, then forced
convection must be used.
Refer to the section that applies to your installation.
