All libraries taller than 14U must be installed in a rack
having a main protective earthing (grounding) terminal,
and power must be supplied via an industrial plug and
socket-outlet and/or an appliance coupler complying with
IEC 60309 (or an equivalent national standard) and having
a protective earth (ground) conductor with a cross
sectional area of at least 1.5 mm
To ensure proper airflow and access space, Allow 60 cm
(24 inches) in the front and back of the library.
Without tape drives, tape cartridges, or power supplies, a
5U control module weighs approximately 60 lbs (27.2 kg).
A 9U expansion module, without tape drives, tape
cartridges, or power supplies, exceeds 65 lbs (29.5 kg).
To avoid serious injury, at least two people are required to
