Cooling vents
The Series 2600 has side intake and rear exhaust vents. One side must be
unobstructed when rack mounted to dissipate heat. NEVER place a container of
liquid (e.g., water, coffee, etc.) on the top cover. If it spills, the liquid will enter the
case through the vents and cause severe damage.
Excessive heat could damage the Series 2600 and degrade its performance. The
Series 2600 must be operating in an environment where the ambient temperature
does not exceed 50°C.
CAUTION
To prevent damaging heat build-up, and ensure specified
performance, adhere to the following precautions:
•
The rear exhaust vent and at least one side vent must be
kept free of any obstructions. Even partial blockage could
impair proper cooling.
•
DO NOT position any devices adjacent to the Series 2600
that force air (heated or unheated) into or onto its cooling
vents or surfaces. This additional airflow could
compromise accuracy performance.
•
When rack mounting the Series 2600, make sure there is
adequate airflow around at least one side to ensure proper
cooling. Adequate airflow enables air temperatures within
approximately one inch of the Series 2600 surfaces to
remain within specified limits under all operating
conditions.
•
Rack mounting high power dissipation equipment adjacent
to the Series 2600 could cause excessive heating to occur.
The specified ambient temperature must be maintained
around the surfaces of the Series 2600 to specified
accuracies. A good measure to ensure proper cooling in
rack situations with convection cooling only is to place the
hottest equipment (e.g., power supply) at the top of the
rack. Precision equipment, such as the Series 2600, should
be placed as low as possible in the rack where
temperatures are coolest. Adding space panels below the
Series 2600 will help ensure adequate air flow.
