2.
Reduced air flow
—
Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the
amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
3.
Mechanical loading
—
Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a
hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
4.
Circuit overloading
—
Consideration should be given to the connection of the
equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have
on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment
nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
5.
Reliable earthing (grounding)
—
Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should
be maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than
direct connections to the branch circuit (such as the use of power strips).
Rack Mounting
For optional rack mounting, mount the unit on an RSF 123 Rack Shelf (see figure 1) or an
RSU 129 Universal Rack Shelf (see figure 2).

Screws
Use 2 mounting holes on
opposite corners.
