Rack-mount Requirements
CAUTION
For rack-mounted installations, the following criteria must be observed (in addition to
the Environmental Requirements listed on page 21)
Mounting & Support
ALWAYS use the special rack-mount kit (available separately) to secure the
ImageStar HD
. Full
details on using the kit are included with the kit.
DO NOT stand other units directly on top of the
ImageStar HD
when it is rack-mounted as this will
place excessive strain on the mounting brackets.
Ventilation
ALWAYS ensure that the rack enclosure is adequately ventilated. Sufficient airflow must be achieved
(by convection or forced-air cooling) to satisfy the ventilation requirements of
all
items of equipment
installed within the rack.
A ventilation gap of at least 44mm (1U) is recommended above and below the
ImageStar HD
and
adjacent surfaces or equipment.
Mains Supply
ALWAYS ensure that the mains power supply is of the correct voltage and frequency for
all
equipment within the rack, and that it has a good ground/earth connection.
Where a power strip (mains distribution batten) is used (of either a hard-wired or plug and socket
type), always ensure that the current rating of both the power strip and the supply is sufficient for all
equipment within the rack.
