SC503 Chassis Manual
6-2
This product is for installation only in a Restricted Access Location (dedicated
•
equipment rooms, service closets and similar environments).
Rack Precautions
Ensure that the leveling jacks on the bottom of the rack are fully extended to
•
the floor with the full weight of the rack resting on them.
In single rack installation, stabilizers should be attached to the rack.
•
In multiple rack installations, the racks should be coupled together.
•
Always make sure the rack is stable before extending a component from the
•
rack.
You should extend only one component at a time. Extending two or more simul-
•
taneously may cause the rack to become unstable.
General Server Precautions
Review the electrical and general safety precautions that came with the com-
•
ponents you are adding to your chassis.
Determine the placement of each component in the rack.
•
Install the heaviest server components on the bottom of the rack first, and then
•
work up.
Use a regulating, uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to protect the server from
•
power surges, voltage spikes and to keep your system operating in case of a
power failure.
Allow the hard drives and power supply modules to cool before touching
•
them.
Always keep the rack's front door, all panels and all components on the servers
•
closed when not servicing, in order to maintain proper cooling.
