Rack Mounting Assembly Instructions

IP403, 406, 412 and expansion modules can be mounted in any standard 19" rack as follows:
CAUTIONS
• Elevated Operating Ambient Temperature
If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assemble, the operating ambient temperature of the rack
environment may be greater that the room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to
installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the manufacturer's maximum rated
ambient temperature (Tmra).
• Reduced Air Flow
Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow required for safe
operation of the equipment is not compromised.
• Mechanical Loading
Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved
due to uneven mechanical loading.
• Circuit Overloading
Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the
effect that overloading of circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring.
Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this
concern.
• Reliable Grounding
Reliable grounding of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention should
be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of
power strips).
