Rack cabinet cooling and clearance requirements
CAUTION.
To prevent risk of fire, adequate airflow to instrument(s) and rack adapter must be maintained. Failure to provide
adequate airflow to instrument(s) could cause an instrument to shut down.
Inadequate airflow includes placing instrument(s) and rack adapter in any small, enclosed room that lacks a ventilation system,
such as a closet. If the airflow is restricted or blocked and the instrument(s) do not shut down, the risk of fire is increased and the
instrument(s) could be permanently damaged.
The instrument has specific cooling and clearance requirements. Make sure that the clearance requirements for proper
airflow are met for both the rack cabinet and the instrument. See the
PRISM MPI2 Installation and Safety Instructions
manual
for information about the environmental operating requirements for the instrument.
