System Installation
Protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI)
The product has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to
part 15 of the FCC Rules, EN 55022 Class A.
To ensure proper EMC shielding, operate the custom chassis only with all free slots populated with filler
panels.
Ensure that all EMI gaskets make correct contact.
Electrostatic discharge precautions
Electronic components can easily be destroyed by electrostatic discharge which can occur between
backplane components and a person.
•
Before working on the backplane make sure that you are working in an ESD-safe environment.
Installation
To avoid backplane damage, verify that the system environment meets the environmental and power
requirements given in this guide before installation consider these guidelines:
Location
Locate the system in a stable area free of excessive movement and jarring, dust, smoke, and
electrostatic discharge (ESD). Make sure that the temperature does not exceed the operating
temperature given in the environmental requirements in this guide and allow room for proper air flow for
cooling.
Voltage hazards
The system is powered with a power supply the mains voltage is 115/230VAC.
(Voltage range 90VAC to 264VAC)
This voltage is considered hazardous.
System overheating
Ensure clearance of at least 10 cm to the air inlet on the left side of the backplane, and a free path of at
least 10 cm for the air exhaust on the right.
Shelf ambient temperature may not exceed 50°C.
