Figure 1—DataSMART T3/E3 IDSU dimensions and clearance requirements
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is potentially damaging to circuitry within the DataSMART
T3/E3 IDSU. Set up the work area to limit the effects of ESD. We recommend that you
wear a ground strap when handling the components and that you employ antistatic
mats within the work area.
The physical dimensions of the IDSU enclosure are shown below. Clearance of at least
1in. (25 mm) is required on either side of the unit for cooling, and clearance of 4 in.
(102 mm) is required at the rear of the unit for cable installation.
CAUTION!
Damage to the DataSMART T3/E3 IDSU may occur if appropriate clearances
around the enclosure are not provided for cooling.
