General Precautions for Rack-Mountable Products
Observe the following precautions for rack stability and safety. Also, refer to the rack installation
documentation accompanying the system and the rack for specific caution statements and procedures.
●
Systems are considered to be components in a rack. Thus, “component” refers to any system as well
as to various peripherals or supporting hardware.
●
Before working on the rack, make sure that the stabilizers are secured to the rack, extended to the
floor, and that the full weight of the rack rests on the floor. Install front and side stabilizers on a
single rack or front stabilizers for joined multiple racks before working on the rack.
●
Always load the rack from the bottom up, and load the heaviest item in the rack first.
●
Make sure that the rack is level and stable before extending a component from the rack.
●
Use caution when pressing the component rail release latches and sliding a component into or out of
a rack; the slide rails can pinch your fingers.
●
After a component is inserted into the rack, carefully extend the rail into a locking position, and then
slide the component into the rack.
●
Do not overload the AC supply branch circuit that provides power to the rack. The total rack load
should not exceed 80 percent of the branch circuit rating.
●
Ensure that proper airflow is provided to components in the rack.
●
Do not step on or stand on any component when servicing other components in a rack.
NOTE
A qualified electrician must perform all connections to DC power and to safety grounds. All electrical
wiring must comply with applicable local, regional or national codes and practices.
WARNING!
Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the equipment in the absence of a suitably installed
ground conductor. Contact the appropriate electrical inspection authority or an electrician if you are uncertain
that suitable grounding is available.
WARNING!
The system chassis must be positively grounded to the rack cabinet frame. Do not attempt to connect
power to the system until grounding cables are connected. A qualified electrical inspector must inspect
completed power and safety ground wiring. An energy hazard will exist if the safety ground cable is omitted or
disconnected.
WARNING!
Do not replace the battery with an incorrect type. The risk of explosion exists if the replacement battery
is not the correct lithium battery type. Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.
