Clearances
Provide a minimum clearance of 61 cm (2 ft.) at the front and back of the VS300. Provide additional
clearance for air flow at the sides of the VS300, particularly near the front panel where the primary
cooling fan is located.
Check the clearance around the host cabinet to ensure that you will be able to open all doors and
access panels. Ensure adequate space is available at the front of the cabinet to allow pulling out the
transmitter for servicing fan filters and internal parts/assemblies. Also consider access to the rear of
the cabinet for making connections to the transmitter.
Internal fans pull cooling air through air filters in the side of the transmitter. The cooling air exhausts
through a grill at the rear of the transmitter.
Weight
The unpacked weight of the VS300 transmitter is 10.4 kg (23 lbs).
