Installation Instructions

Secure Racking

If Secure Racked units are installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, they may require further 

evaluation by Certification Agencies.  The following items must be considered.
1.  The ambient within the rack may be greater than room ambient.  Installation should be such 

that the amount of air flow required for safe operation is not compromised.  The maximum 

temperature for the equipment in this environment is 45°C.  Consideration should be given to the 

maximum rated ambient.

2.  Installation should be such that a hazardous stability condition is not achieved due to uneven 

loading.

Input Supply

1.  Check nameplate ratings to assure there is no overloading of supply circuits that could have an 

effect on overcurrent protection and supply wiring.

2.  When installing 48 VDC rated equipment, it must be installed only per the following conditions:

A.  Connect the equipment to a 48 VDC supply source that is electrically isolated from the 

alternating current source.  The 48 VDC source is to be connected to a 48 VDC SELV source.

B.  Input wiring to terminal block must be routed and secured in such a manner that it is 

protected from damage and stress.  Do not route wiring past sharp edges or moving parts.

C.  A readily accessible disconnect device, with a 3 mm minimum contact gap, shall be 

incorporated in the fixed wiring.

Grounding

Reliable earthing of this equipment must be maintained.  Particular attention should be given to 

supply connections when connecting to power strips, rather than direct connections to the branch 

circuit.

No Serviceable Parts Inside; Authorized Service Personnel Only

Do not attempt to repair or service this device yourself.  Internal components must be serviced by 

authorized personnel only.

•  Shock Hazard - Do Not Enter
