L Series and C Series FIR-Drive Power en | Safety Amplifiers Do not operate the device in close proximity to water. Use only a dry cloth to clean the unit. Do not cover any ventilation slots. Always refer to the manufacturer's instructions when installing the device.
L Series and C Series FIR-Drive Power Safety | en Amplifiers The device must be free of any voltage before performing any alterations with upgrade sets, switching the mains voltage, or performing any other modifications. The minimum distance between voltage-carrying parts and metal parts that can be touched (such as the metal housing) or between mains poles is 3 mm, and must be observed at all times.

L Series and C Series FIR-Drive Power en | Installation Amplifiers Installation Operating voltage The power amplifier receives its power supply via the MAINS IN connector. Only the provided power cord may be used. During installation, always separate the power amplifier from the mains.
Figure 5.3: Mounting powered an amplifier in a rack, front (left) and rear (right) showing optional RMK-15 Ventilation As with all Dynacord power amps with fan cooling, the airflow direction is front-to-rear, obviously because there is more cold air outside of the rack case than inside. The power amplifier remains cooler and dissipating the developing waste heat in a specific direction gets easier.

Do not use the power amplifier near heat sources, like heater blowers, stoves, or any other heat radiating devices. Notice! Do not use Dynacord power amplifiers in an environment where temperatures are below 0°C or exceed +40°C. For fixed amplifier installations in a device control room that incorporate a central air-cooling system or air conditioners, calculating the maximum heat emission may be necessary.
