Bench Operation
Chapter 1 gives the dimensions of your mainframe. The mainframe has plastic feet that are shaped to ensure self-alignment
when stacked with other Agilent System II cabinets. The feet may be removed for rack mounting. Your mainframe must be
installed in a location that allows sufficient space at the sides and rear of the mainframe for adequate air circulation. Do not
block the vents at the sides and rear of the mainframe.
Rack Mounting
The mainframe can be mounted in a standard 19-inch rack panel or cabinet. Refer to Chapter 1 for mainframe dimensions.
A fully loaded mainframe can weigh over 36 kg (80 lbs). Install the mainframe into the rack before installing the modules
into the mainframe.
Rack mounting kits are available as option numbers 908 and 909 (with handles). Installation instructions are included with
each rack mounting kit.
Note
Instrument support rails are also required for rack mounting. These are normally supplied with the
cabinet and are not included with the rack mounting kits.
Temperature Performance
The mainframe can operate within the temperature range of 0° to 55° C. Fans in each module cool the modules by drawing
in air through the sides of the mainframe and exhausting it out the back. Using Agilent rack mount or slide kits will not
impede the flow of air.
