Installation

Safety Instructions for Rack Mount Installations

The instructions below (or similar) are intended for rackmount installation environments:
1.

Elevated Operating Ambient Temperature: if installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient
temperature of the rack environment may exceed room ambient. Install the equipment in an environment
compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified.

2.

Reduced Air Flow: install the equipment in a rack so that the amount of air flow required for safe operation is not
compromised.

3.

Mechanical Loading: Mount the equipment in the rack so that a hazardous condition does not occur due to uneven
mechanical loading (weight distribution/rack balance).

4.

Circuit Overloading: give consideration 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. Consider all equipment
nameplate ratings when addressing this concern.

5.

Reliable Earthing: maintain reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment; pay particular attention to supply
connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g., use of power strips).
