Installation Recommendations
Mounting
The unit is designed to install into a standard 19" rack mounted at ear level for best
high frequency response and visual observation of the monitor screen. Please
adhere to the following clearances:
Clearance
Surface
24” Front
3” Rear
2” Sides
1.75” Top and Bottom (if either radiates heat)
0” Top and Bottom (if no heat)
Heat Dissipation
The ambient temperature inside the mounting enclosure should not exceed 40°
Celsius (104° Fahrenheit). Adjacent devices can be rack mounted (or stacked) in
proximity to the unit if this temperature is not exceeded. Otherwise, allow a 1RU
(1.75”/44.45mm) space above and below the unit for air circulation.
Sympathetic Vibration
Sympathetic vibration from other equipment (cables, etc.,) in the rack may be
serious enough to interfere with the unit’s sound quality. The use of thin card stock
and/or felt or foam weather-stripping type materials between adjacent vibrating
surfaces, or tying up loose cables, etc., may be required to stop vibrations external
to the unit.
Mechanical Bracing
Even though these 2U models are fairly heavy, the chassis is securely attached to
the front panel. In addition, the chassis has mounting tabs through which you
attach it to the rack rail. This feature will reduce or eliminate rear bracing
requirements in many mobile/portable applications. The weight of internal
components is distributed fairly evenly around the unit.
Important
:
To reduce noise, the monitor does not have any fans. As a result,
the heat generated by the class D power amplifiers, power
supplies, and other components is vented by slots in the side of
the unit. Therefore, as a safety precaution, you must allow proper
ventilation on both sides of the unit.
