2.1 Pre-Installation Check
Upon receiving your RX3i equipment, carefully inspect all shipping containers for damage.
If any part of the system is damaged, notify the carrier immediately. The damaged shipping
container should be saved as evidence for inspection by the carrier.
As the consignee, it is your responsibility to register a claim with the carrier for damage
incurred during shipment. EMERSON will cooperate fully with you, however, should such
action be necessary.
After unpacking the RX3i equipment, record all serial numbers. Serial numbers are required
if you should need to contact Customer Care during the warranty period. All shipping
containers and all packing material should be saved should it be necessary to transport or
ship any part of the system.
Verify that all components of the system have been received and that they agree with your
order. If the system received does not agree with your order, contact Customer Care.
If you need technical help, contact Technical Support. For phone numbers and email
addresses, see the Contact Information page in the front of this manual.

Installation Location

This product is primarily intended for use with the RX3i system. Its components are
considered open equipment (having live electrical parts that may be accessible to users) and
must be installed in an ultimate enclosure that is manufactured to provide safety. At a
minimum, the enclosure shall provide a degree of protection against solid objects as small
as 12mm (e.g. fingers). This equates to a NEMA/UL Type 1 enclosure or an IP20 rating (IEC
60529) providing at least a pollution degree 2 environment. For details about installing RX3i
rack systems, refer to the PACSystems RX3i System Manual, GFK-2314.
