3.1.1 Rack Mounting
Figure 4:
19” Rack Mount Adapters
Figure 5: Rack mount adapter mounting location
The RX1000 series can be rack mounted using the included rack mount adapter
assemblies shown in Figure 4. Secure the rack mount adapter to the front side of the
chassis using the included black PAN head Phillips screws in the positions shown in
Figure 5.
The entire chassis can then be mounted to a standard 19” rack. An
additional two rack mount adapters are included to optionally secure the rear of the
chassis in high-vibration, or seismically active locations.
NOTE:
Since heat within the RX1000 is channeled to the enclosure, it is
recommended that 1 rack-
unit of space (1.75”) be kept unpopulated and free of
equipment above each RX1000 series product to allow convectional airflow.
Although forced airflow is not necessary, any increase in airflow will result in a
reduction of ambient temperature that will improve long-term reliability of all
equipment mounted within the rack space.
