Risk of injury and instrument damage if stacking instruments
A stack of instruments may tilt over and cause injury. Furthermore, the instruments at
the bottom of the stack may be damaged due to the load imposed by the instruments
on top.
Observe the following instructions when stacking instruments:
●
Never stack more than three instruments with the same dimensions (width and
length). If you need to stack more than three instruments, install them in a rack.
●
The overall load imposed on the lowest instrument must not exceed 500
N.
●
All instruments should have the same dimensions (width and length).
If you need to stack smaller instruments on the top, the overall load imposed on the
lowest instrument must not exceed 250
N.
●
If the instruments have foldable feet, fold them in completely.
Rack mounting
The R&S
SGU can be installed in a rack using a rack adapter kit (Order No. see data
sheet). The installation instructions are part of the adapter kit.
Risk of instrument damage due to insufficient airflow in a rack
If you mount several instruments in a rack, you need an efficient ventilation concept to
ensure that the instruments do not overheat. Insufficient airflow for a longer period can
disturb the operation and even cause damage.
