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.
When using electrical products, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:
• Read and follow all instructions before using.
• -There are no user serviceable components within this device. Removal of the cover from this device may present
a shock hazard, and void the warranty.
