5. INSTALLATION

5.1 Rack mounting

The BEHRINGER TUBE ULTRA-Q fits into two standard 19" rack units of space. Please allow at least an

additional 4" depth for the connectors on the back panel. Be sure that there is enough air space around the unit

for cooling and please do not place the TUBE ULTRA-Q on high temperature devices such as power amplifiers

etc. to avoid overheating.

5.2 Mains voltage

Before you connect your TUBE ULTRA-Q to the mains, please make sure that your local voltage

matches the voltage required by the unit!

 The fuse holder on the female mains connector has 3 triangular

markers, with two of these triangles opposing each other. Your TUBE ULTRA-Q is set to the operating voltage

printed next to these markers, and can be set to another voltage by turning the fuse holder by 180°. 

CAUTION:

this instruction does not apply to export models exclusively designed, e.g. for 115 V operation!

5.3 Audio connections

The audio inputs and outputs on the BEHRINGER TUBE ULTRA-Q are fully balanced. If possible, connect the

unit to other devices in a balanced configuration to allow for maximum interference immunity.

+

Please  ensure  that  only  qualified  persons  install  and  operate  the  TUBE ULTRA-Q.  During

installation and operation the user must have sufficient electrical contact to earth. Electro-

static charges might affect the operation of the TUBE ULTRA-Q!
