Equipment rack
The Remote Vacuum Controller (RVC2) is fitted into a 19-inch sub-rack. The sub-rack should be fitted into a 19-
inch equipment rack using four M6 screws, plastic cup washers and cage nuts.
Interconnecting cables
All the cables that run between the equipment rack and the RGA vacuum chamber may be routed in protective
conduit (e.g., plastic trunking) that provides a good degree of protection, according to the location of installation.
All cables are labelled at both ends. All the connectors have been chosen to minimise the risk of making a wrong
connection. The table below gives cable functions and cable destination.
