specifications.
WARNING
: Exceeding the weight ratings on page 4 can result in serious injury or damage to the equipment. It is the responsibility of
the Installer/User to ensure the components installed do not surpass the weight ratings as an unstable condition can occur which may
cause possible injury or damage.
CAUTION
: Note that during construction, there must be no possibility of personal injury, for example the squeezing of fingers or
arms.
CAUTION

Safety Instructions
: Rack Mount
Elevated Operating Ambient
: If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack
environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment
compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.
Reduced Air Flow
: Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the
equipment is not compromised.
Mechanical Loading
: Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven
mechanical loading.
Circuit Overloading
: Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that
overloading of the circuit might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate
ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
Reliable Earthing
: Reliable earthing of rack-mounting equipment should be maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply
connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).
Disconnect Device (Pluggable Equipment)
: The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.
WARNING
: Middle Atlantic Products, electrical systems conform to and should be properly grounded in compliance with require-
ments of the current National Electrical Code or codes administered by local authorities. All electrical products may present a possible
shock or fire hazard if improperly installed or used. Electrical products may bear the mark of a Nationally Recognized Testing
Laboratory (NRTL) and should be installed in conformance with current local and/or the National Electrical Code.
