F1K5-DISS – User’s Manual
12
User shall protect output contacts by placing the FAST-PS-
1K5 & F1K5-DISS system inside a closed rack or by
restricting the access to the back side.
Thermal Management
F1K5-DISS converts electrical into thermal energy, considerable amount of heat
is generated. This fact must be taken into consideration when installing the system. Fans
cool the dissipation element by drawing air from front side and exhausting it out the
back, therefore minimum 10 cm of unrestricted air space at the front and 20 cm on the
back of the unit must be provided.
If specific application requires high power dissipation for long periods (> 800 W;
> 10 min) it is recommended to install FAST-PS-1K5 and F1K5-DISS with 1U of
clearance in between to mitigate heating problems and using blanking panels to prevent
mixing hot and cold air. Proper equipment rack ventilation shall be provided to reduce
ambient temperature not exceed 45 °C on the front of the units.
Do not touch the hot surfaces. The temperature of the back
and top-right surfaces may be high when the unit is operating
at high power.

F1K5-DISS connection
Turn off the AC input power before making or changing any
rear panel connection. Ensure that all connections are
securely tightened before applying power. There is a
potential shock hazard when using a power supply with a
rated output greater than 60 V
