3.1.1 General
Read the health and safety warnings in chapter 1.2 Health and Safety Warnings.
1. Do not install the unit in a way or at a place where the specifications
outlined in the Environmental and Safety Specifications leaflet of the
manufacturer are not met.
2. It is recommended only to use the mounting hardware delivered by the
manufacturer. If different mounting hardware is used, the specifications
for stationary use of the unit must not be exceeded.
Note: Exceeding the specified load limits may cause the loss of warranty.
3. The unit is considerably heavy. Make sure that a suitable mounting
surface is used. Ensure there is adequate manpower to handle the
weight of the system.
4. Due to power dissipation, the unit may reach a very high temperature.
Ensure sufficient airflow for ventilation. Above and below the units a
minimum distance of 300* mm to ceiling, floor, etc. has to be kept. This
distance must also be observed between two units if they are mounted
one above the other.
* This value does not apply to the distance between Interface Unit and Node C. The
distance required between the two cabinets is specified in table 3-1 Mounting distance.
If any different or additional mounting material is used, ensure that the mounting
remains as safe as the mounting designed by the manufacturer. Ensure that the
static and dynamic strengths are adequate for the environmental conditions of the
site. The mounting itself must not vibrate, swing or move in any way that might cause
damage to the unit.
Note: Both the Node C and the Interface Unit are delivered with a pre-
mounted front cover. This cover is of vital importance for the
correct forced airflow (of Node C 43) and for passive cooling (of
Node C 37 and Interface Unit). Thus, do not operate the units
without cover.
