SMU4000 Series Instruction Manual
INSTALLATION
Mounting
This instrument is suitable both for bench use and rack mounting.
For rack mounting the protective bezels and handle/stand should be removed such that the
instrument can be fitted beside any other standard 2U half-rack instrument in a 19” rack. A
suitable 2U 19” rack kit is available from the manufacturers or their overseas agents.
See rack mount instructions for details on how to remove the protective bezel and handle.
Ventilation
The instrument uses a fan fitted to the rear panel. Take care not to restrict the rear air exit or
the inlet vents at the front (sides and underneath). In rack-mounted situations allow adequate
space around the instrument and/or use a fan tray for forced cooling. If the air inlet vents are
restricted for any reason, the fan can be set to ‘fast’ to compensate for minimal restrictions, see
’ for more details.
Handle/stand
The instrument is fitted with a 4-position handle/stand. Pull out both sides of the handle at the
case pivot points to free the position locking pegs and rotate the handle from the stowed
position to the required stand or handle position. Release the sides of the handle to lock it in
the new position.
