from the front. The rear bays are numbered 1 to 3 from right to left, viewed form the rear. Bays are
numbered from 1 (top row) to 2 (bottom row). Module locations are identified from a matrix of the top and
side numbers, e.g. the Cooling modules should be installed in the top centre rear bay 2/1 (second column
from right, top row, when viewed from the rear) and bottom center rear bay 2/2 (second column from right,
bottom row, when viewed from the rear)
2.3 Enclosure Installation Procedures
Caution The RS-0800-LVD enclosure with all its component parts installed is too heavy for easy installation into
a rack cabinet. The following procedures describe the installation of the RS-0800-LVD enclosure and
highlights any critical co-requisite requirements and good handling practices which we encourage you to
follow so as to ensure that a successful installation is achieved in the easiest manner.
Warning Ensure that you have fitted and checked a suitable anti-static wrist or ankle strap and observe all
conventional ESD precautions when handling
RS-0800-LVD modules and components. Avoid
contact with Backplane components and module connectors, etc.
2.3.1 Pre-Requisites
The RS-0800-LVD enclosure is designed for installation into an industry standard 19 inch cabinet capable
of holding the unit.
• Minimum depth 580 mm from front flange to rear metalwork (excludes rear cabling).
• Weight (up to 25 kg dependent upon configuration) per enclosure.
• A minimum gap of 25mm (1inch) clearance between the rack cover and front of drawer; and 50mm
(2 inches) rear clearance between rear of drawer and rear of rack is recommended in order to
maintain the correct airflow around the enclosure.
• The rack should present a maximum back pressure of 5 pascals (0.5mm water gauge). A vented
rear door or no door at all are the recommended configurations.
2.3.2 Rack Mounting Rail Kit
A set of mounting rails is available for use in 19 inch rack cabinets. These rails have been designed and
tested to handle the maximum enclosure weight and to ensure that multiple RS-0800 enclosures may be
installed without loss of space within the rack. Use of other mounting hardware may cause some loss of
rack space.
The rack mounting rail kit also incorporates a rear hold down mechanism to ensure shock and vibration
immunity.
