HYPER-AL SBC

4.6 Chassis Installation

4.6.1 Airflow

WARNING:
Airflow is critical for keeping components within recommended
operating temperatures. The chassis should have fans and vents as
necessary to keep things cool.
The HYPER-AL must be installed in a chassis with ventilation holes on the sides allowing
airflow to travel through the heat sink surface. In a system with an individual power supply
unit, the cooling fan of a power supply can also help generate airflow through the board
surface.

4.6.2 Heat Spreader Installation

WARNING:
Never run the HYPER-AL without the heat spreader secured to the
board. The heat spreader ensures the system remains cool and does
not need addition heat sinks to cool the system.
A heat spreader is shipped with the HYPER-AL. The heat spreader must be installed on to
the HYPER-AL before operation.

4.6.3 Motherboard Installation

To install the HYPER-AL motherboard into the chassis please refer to the reference
material that came with the chassis.
