SRPM8 Server System Quick Start Guide 7
Optional Slide Rail Kit
If the SRPM8 Server is to be rack mounted the slide rail kit should be installed as follows before
proceeding.
Equipment Rack Precautions
WARNINGS
A
NCHOR THE EQUIPMENT RACK
: The equipment rack must be anchored
to an unmovable support to prevent it from falling over when one or
more servers are extended in front of it on slide assemblies. The
anchors must be able to withstand a force of up to 113 kg (250 lbs). You
must also consider the weight of any other device installed in the rack.
M
AIN
AC
POWER DISCONNECT
: You are responsible for installing an
AC power disconnect for the entire rack unit. This main disconnect
must be readily accessible, and it must be labeled as controlling power
to the entire unit, not just to the server(s).
G
ROUNDING THE RACK INSTALLATION
: To avoid the potential for an
electrical shock hazard, you must include a third wire safety grounding
conductor with the rack installation. If a server power cord is plugged
into an AC outlet that is part of the rack, then you must provide proper
grounding for the rack itself. If server power cords are plugged into
wall AC outlets, the safety grounding conductor in each power cord
provides proper grounding only for the server. You must provide
additional, proper grounding for the rack and other devices installed
in it.
CAUTIONS
Temperature: The operating temperature of the server, when installed in an
equipment rack, must not go below 5 °C (41 °F) or rise above 35 °C (95 °F).
Extreme fluctuations in temperature can cause a variety of problems in your
server.
Ventilation: The equipment rack must provide sufficient airflow to the
front of the server to maintain proper cooling. It must also include
ventilation sufficient to exhaust a maximum of 4,100 Btu's per hour for the
server. The rack selected and the ventilation provided must be suitable to
the environment in which the server will be used.
