Cooling

Forced-air cooling is used to keep the tapes drives, logic devices, motor amplifiers,
motors, and power supplies below their maximum allowable temperatures at
ambient extremes.

Installation considerations

This section contains installation considerations on rack mounting, input supply,
and grounding for the 4560SLX Tape Library.

Rack mounting

When rack-mounted units are installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly,
they might require further evaluation by certification agencies. The following
information must be considered:
v The ambient temperature within the rack might be greater than the room
ambient temperature. Install the library so that the amount of air flow required
for safe operation is not compromised. The maximum equipment environment
temperature is 50°C.
v Library installation should be conducted such that no hazardous stability
condition is achieved due to uneven loading.

Input supply

Check power supply nameplate ratings to ensure that no overloading of supply
circuits will occur.

Grounding

Check that reliable grounding of this equipment is maintained. Particular attention
should be given to supply connections when connecting power strips.
