2. Installation
This chapter describes IONPS-D-R1 cautions/warnings, installation and setup. The ION219 chassis can support up
to two power supply modules which mount in the rear of the chassis.
A single power supply can be used to power all the devices installed in the chassis; however the system can be
made redundant with the use of a second power supply. In this configuration, the power supplies operate in an
instant-fail-over mode.
Installation Overview
This section describes the installation and site requirements for installing the ION219-A chassis.
Caution
: Install the ION219-x chassis so that the airflow around it is not restricted. Failure to observe this
caution could result in performance problems or damage to the contents of the chassis.
Caution
: Read the installation instructions before connecting the chassis to a power source. Failure to observe
this caution could result in poor performance or damage to the chassis and its SICs.
Caution
: Only trained and qualified personnel should install or replace the ION219-A chassis. Failure to observe
this caution could result in poor performance or damage to the chassis.
Safety considerations
: The following considerations will help to ensure your safety as well as protection of the
chassis and its contents from damage. This list does not contain all the potentially hazardous conditions that
could exist at the installation site, so exercise caution at all times.
•
Always unplug all power cords before installing or removing the chassis.
•
Keep the chassis area clear and dust free during and after installation.
•
Keep tools and chassis components away from walk areas.
•
DO NOT place containers containing liquid on top of the chassis.
Electrical safety
: Follow these basic guidelines when working with any electrical equipment:
•
Disconnect all power and external cables before installing or removing the chassis.
•
Do not work alone when potential hazard conditions exists.
•
Never assume that power has been disconnect from the circuit—always check.
•
Carefully examine your work area for possible hazards such as wet floors, ungrounded power extension
cables, and missing safety ground.
WARNING
Do not work on the chassis, connect, or disconnect cables during a storm with lightning activity. Failure to
observe this warning could result in an electrical shock or death.
Site Requirements
To assure normal operation and avoid unnecessary maintenance, plan the site configuration and prepare the
site before installation.
ION219 Chassis Power Consumption Note
: The IONPS-D-R1 can power a fully populated ION219 chassis when
loaded with chassis cards that consume 5 Watts of power or less. The IONPS-D-R1 is not recommended for use
with the C4120 chassis card as it uses too much power. All other ION chassis cards use 5 Watts of power or less
(except the C4120 chassis card).
Caution
: To prevent the chassis from overheating, do not operate it in an area that exceeds the maximum
recommended ambient temperature 50ºC (122ºF).
