Rack Installation
Caution:
To prevent overheating and airflow restriction, avoid placing high heat producing
equipment directly above or below the enclosure. The system requires a minimum of one empty rack
unit above and below (three empty rack units are recommended). Verify that the openings on the top
and sides of the enclosure are not blocked and do not have restricted air flow.
The Epica DGX 144 has a hand-hold inset on each side to assist with maneuvering the enclosure. Do
not
attempt to lift the enclosure from the pallet to the rack by yourself.
Important:
Do not use the board extractor handles to lift the enclosure or to maneuver it into place.
Use a pallet jack to lift it, and use the hand-hold insets on the sides of the enclosure to maneuver it.
To install an enclosure in a rack (requires a minimum of 3 people):
1.
While the enclosure is still on the pallet, cut loose and remove the outer straps.
2.
Remove the tray (contains cables, etc.) from the top of the cardboard sleeve.
3.
Remove the cardboard sleeve.
4.
Cut loose and remove the inner straps. Carefully remove the shrink-wrap and corner cushions.
5.
Use a pallet jack to move the enclosure into position.
6.
Select a position in the rack that is accessible and does not restrict airflow (see
Caution
above).
7.
Lift and push the enclosure into the rack. Screw in the top 3 rack ear screws on each side.
8.
Move the pallet jack out of the way. Supporting the enclosure as needed, screw in the remaining
rack ear screws.
