Rack Mounting – Hardware and Temperature
When mounting instrument in a rack, do not exceed the lower of:
CAUTION
•
•
Do not rack mount the test set side-by-side with any other instrument with side ventilation. Make sure
the exhaust air from the first instrument is directed away from the inlet of the second unit. If the pre-
heated air from the first instrument is directed into the second instrument, it can cause excessive
operating temperatures in the second unit and can cause instrument failures. The test set draws air in
from the rear and exhausts air from the top and sides. Do not mount other equipment immediately above
the instrument. The minimal required clearance is 2.75 inches (7 cm).
CAUTION
When installing the product in a cabinet, the convection into and out of the product must
not be restricted. The ambient temperature (outside the cabinet) must be less than the
maximum operating temperature of the product by 4° C for every 100 watts dissipated in
the cabinet. If the total power dissipated in the cabinet is greater than 800 watts, then
forced convection must be used.
Outside rack ambient temperature of 35° C
Or, an internal rack air temperature of 45° C.
