INSTALLATION

AREX™ 401

INSTALLATION ENVIRONMENT

Control rack

The control rack must be installed in a suitable environment in order to allow proper air
flow and correct housing of the cables.

The control rack uses a forced air cooling system: an adequate air flow is necessary to

guarantee its correct cooling. Install the control rack so that air flow is not obstructed.
Moreover, do not install it near a heat source.

Clean the air filter when it is dirty. If the air filter is dirty, insufficient air-flow might not
ensure correct cooling and might stop the marking operation. Clean or replace the air
filter periodically.

≥

300mm

Figure 13: Control rack installation environment

CAUTION: If not enough space is provided, the temperature inside the con-
trol rack could rise, causing temperature error.

CAUTION: DO NOT place heavy objects on top of the control rack!

NOTE: The control rack IP rating is IP31 in horizontal position, otherwise
IP30.
