1.2. COOLING 

The 500FR frame is designed to ensure adequate cooling for up to 120 watts of processing power per 
frame.  Fans at the front and rear of each power supply module accomplish forced air cooling.  Adjacent 
equipment may be mounted immediately to the top and bottom of the 500FR frame.  Additional module 
cooling is provided by interior cooling channels to ensure that even fully loaded frames mounted adjacent 
to each other will operate within the normal temperature range.   
 

 

For proper cooling, the frame must contain either two 500PS power supplies, or 
one 500PS power supply and one 500PS-FM power supply blank panel with cooling 
fan.
