Section 2. Installation

 

Rack Mounting 

 

Rack Mounting

 

Use the power supply in benchtop or in rack-mounted applications. 

 

 

WARNING

 

Ensure that any mounting screws do not protrude more than 1/8 in. (3.0 mm) into the 
bottom of the unit. 

 

 

 

The power is supply is designed to fill one quarter of a standard 19 in. (483 mm) 
equipment rack. 

Dual and quad configurations can be combined with 60 watt series models for 
custom applications. Contact the manufacturer about the rack mount kit (Option 
RM). For Rack Mount Installation Instructions, see Appendix A. 

 

Location and Ventilation

 

Whether you place the power supply in a rack or on a bench, allow cooling air to 
reach the ventilation inlets on the bottom and sides of the unit. Ensure that 
rack-mounted supplies have 1 U (1.75 in./44.5 mm) above and below units. Any 
ventilation space around the supply will further lower internal operating 
temperatures. 

See 

“Environmental Specifications” on page 6

, for the operating altitude 

specification and the operating ambient temperature range measured at the unit case.
