Rackmounting the Chassis
Keysight’s Y1227A Rack Mount Kit, is required to rack mount the M9506A chassis.
The kit includes mounting instructions and parts.
General Rack Mounting Guidelines
To rack mount the chassis, follow these guidelines:
– Always begin installing the chassis and heavy instruments at the bottom of
the rack and work up. This maintains a lower center of gravity and reduces
the possibility of the rack tipping.
– Anti-tipping feet, if available with the rack, should always be extended.
– For maximum cooling and optimum rack thermal efficiency, place the
instrument or chassis with the greatest power consumption towards the top
of the rack. This promotes efficient cooling since heat rises when placed
nearer to the top of the rack, high power instruments will not unnecessarily
heat other instruments. However, in doing this, do not violate the guideline
that the heaviest instruments should be placed at the bottom of the rack.
– If instruments or modules in the chassis are consuming maximum power, 1U
of rack space is required for ventilation below the chassis.
Remove / Install Carry Handles and Bumpers
1
The M9506A AXIe chassis has two carry handles which must be removed before
removing the plastic bumpers. Remove the two #2 Phillips screws securing the
carry handles.See
below.
2
Remove the #2 Phillips screws from each side of both bumpers. See
below.
NOTE
When removing the bumpers, save all screws, bumpers and carry handles.
Reinstall them if you remove the chassis from the rack to make it portable or for
desktop use or to ship the chassis.
CAUTION
If you have been using the chassis with modules and bumpers installed, remove
all modules (including the ESM) before removing the bumpers. This makes
handling the chassis easier and reduces the chance of damaging modules. See
CAUTION
Do not attempt to install the carry handles without the front and rear bumpers.
Do not install handle screws without handle and bumpers installed. Handle
screws are too long without the other components installed and could result in
damage to the chassis. If you remove the chassis from a rack, you should
reinstall both the front and rear bumpers and the carry handles
