3-2. RF power supply installation
Install the RF power supply according to the following procedure.
This system cannot be adapted for lightning surges, spike voltage, or momentary power failures. If
a lightning surge, spike voltage, or momentary power failure is input from the power receiving
facilities, the system may be damaged or malfunction. Use the system in an environment without
lightning surges, spike voltage, and momentary power failures.
3-2-1.
Installation and drilling rack holes
RF power supplies 13 MHz 5 kW and lower have a half rack-installable structure. RF power
supplies 13 MHz 10 kW and higher and 27 MHz have a full rack-installable structure. For drilling the
rack's installation holes, refer to the included outline drawing.
3-2-2.
RF power supply mounting structure
The RF power supply's front panel is not designed to bear the weight of the power supply. In
mounting the RF power supply, ensure that undue force is not exerted on the front panel.
See
"
Figure 3-1 Rack mount-type RF power supply installation example
".
Also provide ample clearance in the area around the power supply for air intake. When using the
power supply in a rack mount, ensure there can be ample ventilation so the temperature inside the
rack does not exceed the specified temperature. If the power supply is run at a temperature outside
specifications, an alarm may be sent or the power supply may be damaged.
* As much as possible, install in a location with a temperature from 15
°
C to 30
°
C and with little
dust and vibration.
Also avoid installing it in a location where the floor surface is not level.
* Install it at a distance of 20 cm or more from the back wall.
* Always use a support plate of 3 mm or more to mount in a standard rack.
The front panel only functions to prevent the power supply from falling out of the rack.
