2�2 Cooling Considerations
The PXIe-62780 features an innovative design for heat dissipation, with cooling fans in the
rear section of the chassis, drawing cool air through apertures on the bottom for exhaust
through the back. This design provides uniform airflow for each PXI slot and exceptional
cooling capability. When the chassis is installed in a rack, the cooling design minimizes
drawing of hot air from the rear area, where other devices exhaust, while maintaining a
steady temperature inside the chassis. For optimal cooling efficiency, retain support feet.
When rack mounting the PXIe-62780, at least 1U (44.5 mm/1.75 in.) clearance below the
intake apertures is required. Also keep other objects or equipment at a minimum of 76.2
mm (3 in.) away from the outlet apertures in the rear region of the chassis.
