Page 10: Rack Installation
Rack safety Rack installation DANGER Observe the following precautions when working on or around your IT rack system: v Heavy equipment - personal injury or equipment damage might result if mishandled. v Always lower the leveling pads on the rack cabinet. v Always install stabilizer brackets on the rack cabinet. - Page 11 CAUTION: v Do not install a unit in a rack where the internal rack ambient temperatures will exceed the manufacturer’s recommended ambient temperature for all your rack-mounted devices. v Do not install a unit in a rack where the air flow is compromised. Ensure that air flow is not blocked or reduced on any side, front, or back of a unit used for air flow through the unit.
- Page 12 Rack relocation (19″ rack) CAUTION: Removing components from the upper positions in the rack cabinet improves rack stability during relocation. Follow these general guidelines whenever you relocate a populated rack cabinet within a room or building: v Reduce the weight of the rack cabinet by removing equipment starting at the top of the rack cabinet.
