Instrument Rack Mounting

The Agilent 34980A Mainframe can be mounted in a standard 19 inch
instrument rack or in an Agilent rack cabinet. Orientation can be either
forward mounted (front panel facing the front of the cabinet) or reverse
mounted (rear panel facing the front of the cabinet).
Either method will require a set of cabinet rails to support the
instrument's weight and planned orientation, and a set of mounting
brackets to secure the unit to the cabinet.
Agilent- supplied rail kits are available for Agilent cabinets only; for all
other racks contact the rack's vendor. The following rack mounting kits
and rail kits are available from Agilent:
Y1130A Rack Mount Kit
