3.3 Clearance Requirements
For installation and for maintenance access, the distance from the front door of the cabinet to a wall or
other obstacles must be greater than the length of the unit. You must be able to pull the unit completely
out for proper maintenance access. See
Table 1.3 on page 5, for the length or your VRC model.
The minimum clearance required for opening the front and rear doors to access the installed VRC is
shown in
Figure 3.1 below.

3.4 Mounting, Ducting, Drain and Electrical-connection Considerations
This section provides an overview of the installation requirements for consideration before installing the
system. Detailed equipment and safety requirements are also included in the specific installation sections.
• The VRC is designed to provide cooling air to equipment above it in the cabinet. We
recommended installing the unit in the lowest section of the cabinet.
• The condensate-drain connection for drain piping is 1/2-in. Male NPT.
• If connecting heat-rejection duct work, fabricate and install duct work in accordance with local
codes.
• Electrical service must conform to national and local electrical codes. See Table 1.3 on page 5,
for the electrical requirements for your VRC model.
