6.2.2 Installation of the R&S TS-PSM3 in the R&S TS-PWA3 PowerTSVP
Slots 1\2 to 15\16 are permitted for installation in the R&S TS-PWA3 PowerTSVP . The
voltage supply for the R&S TS-PSM3 is guaranteed on all slots in the R&S TS-PWA3
PowerTSVP even without a R&S TS-PRIO module attached to the rear. Optionally the
R&S TS-PRIO3 module can be placed in rear slots 1\2 to 13\14. With this module all
low power and high power channels on the rear of the R&S TS-PWA3 PowerTSVP can
be made accessible. If the R&S TS-PSM3 is operated in slots 15\16, there is the capa-
bility to run all low power and high power channels 9 to 14 to the X3 and X4 connectors
on the rear of the chassis via the optional R&S TS-PK04 cable set.
Installation in slots 1\2 must be carried out with the utmost care, as components on the
underneath of the R&S TS-PSM3 can be damaged via contact with the adjacent power
supply unit. It must be ensured that after the installation there are no points of contact
between the HF seal of the power supply unit, which may be warped, and the R&S TS-
PSM3 . For safety reasons it is recommended that slots 1\2 in the R&S TS-PWA3
PowerTSVP may not be used for the R&S TS-PSM3.
