1.6.3 Thermal and Cooling Requirements
The thermal output of the OpenFlex F3100 and E3000 depends on the number of F3100s that are
populated in the E3000. Use the following table to determine how many BTUs of heat will exhaust from the
rear of the unit.

1.6.4 Servicing Requirements
Space Requirements
The installation of the OpenFlex F3100 and E3000 will require enough space in front of the rack for two
people to perform a safe installation. The recommended forward clearance is 889 mm / 35 in. from the
front of the rack and 609.6 mm / 24 in. on both sides of the enclosure. It is also recommended to make
considerations for any carts or lift equipment that might be used to perform the installation.
of the enclosure requires one person and a minimum of 508 mm / 20 in. of space in front of the rack to
allow enough clearance to remove an F3100 from the enclosure. See the following diagram for details.
* The weight of the enclosure during installation will vary, depending on the number of F3100 devices and blanks
contained in the E3000. In some situations, carts or lift equipment may be required.
