Prepare for Rack-Mount Installation
Rack-mounted drivers must be installed in a rack in a horizontal flat orientation. Rack-mounted
drivers install into a standard 19-inch rack enclosure. One ArcLamp Driver requires one unit (1U)
of rack space.
Rack-Mounting Safety
•
Installation Location: Install the rack in a location where it will not readily be subjected to
tampering by unauthorized personnel.
•
Elevated Operating Ambient: If the ArcLamp Driver is installed in a closed or multi-unit
rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may elevate
avoe the room ambient. Do not operate the device in an enclosed environment above
40°C (104°F).
•
Reduced Air Flow: When installing the ArcLamp Driver in an equipment rack, the rack
must be vented and have adequate airflow to maintain an operating temperature below
40°C (104°F).
•
Mechanical Loading: Only mount the ArcLamp Driver in an equipment rack using the
included ETC rack-mount hardware. Mount in a horizontal orientation to ensure even
mechanical loading in the rack, avoiding hazardous or dangerous loading conditions.
•
Circuit Overloading: When installing the ArcLamp Driver in an equipment rack, consider
the connection of the equipment to the rack or power source to avoid overloading the rack
circuit or supply wiring. Consider the rack or power distribution in the equipment rack
during installation.
•
Reliable Grounding: Maintain reliable grounding of the rack-mounted equipment. Give
particular attention to any supply connections other than direct connections to the branch
circuit (for example, the use of power strips).
