Rack-Mounting Safety Instructions
When rack-mounting a console switch,
consider these factors:
• Elevated operating ambient temperature
– If the equipment is installed in a
closed or multiunit rack assembly, the
operating ambient temperature of the
rack environment might be greater than
room ambient temperature. Install the
equipment in an environment compatible
with the operating temperature.
• Reduced air flow – In the rack, the rate of
air flow required for safe operation of the
equipment must not be compromised.
• Mechanical loading – Avoid a potentially
hazardous condition caused by uneven
mechanical loading by carefully mounting
the equipment in the rack.
• Circuit overloading – When connecting
the equipment to the supply circuit,
consider the effect that overloading of
the circuits might have on overcurrent
590-xxx-501A
protection and supply wiring. Consider
the equipment nameplate ratings when
addressing this concern.
• Reliable earthing – Maintain reliable
earthing of rack-mounted equipment. Pay
particular attention to supply connections
other than direct connections to the branch
circuit, such as the use of power strips.
• Product should not be mounted with the
rear panel facing in the downward position.
Installing the switch vertically in the side
of a rack
1. Remove the screws on each side of the
switch.
2. Line up the small holes of the L-shaped
brackets with the screw holes in the switch.
3. With a Phillips screwdriver, fasten the
mounting brackets to the switch using two
8/32-inch x 1/2-inch pan-head screws on
each side.
