Quick Start
Instrument Location and Rack Mounting Requirements
VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS: When installing the instrument(s) into a
cabinet consideration shall be given to the convection flow into and out of the
cabinet. Consideration shall also be given to the individual instruments to avoid
having the heated discharge of one instrument, now becoming the cooling
intake air for another instrument.
Another area of concern is verification that the maximum ambient operating
temperature of the instrument(s) is not exceeded by cabinet installation.
Keysight recommends forced air convection whenever instruments are
installed in a cabinet and further recommends that the maximum operating
temperature of the cabinet be reduced 10°C from the lowest maximum
operating temperature of a single instrument.
If there are any concerns or special requirements a Keysight Field Engineer
should be consulted to assure instrument(s) temperature compliance and
performance.
