Appendix B - Providing Adequate Airflow To Your Maevex Device - Matrox Maevex 6020 User Manual

Appendix B – Providing adequate airflow
to your Maevex device
Because your device disperses heat, it requires adequate airflow to ensure proper operation and to
prevent damage. The following provides guidelines for effective airflow around your device.
Leave the proper amount of room around your device – To prevent airflow restriction,
we recommend allowing at least 0.75 inches (1.91 cm) of clearance around your device,
and between the top of your device and anything above it. More space may be required
depending on your environment.
When your device is resting on a plain surface, make sure your device is resting on the
original rubber feet.
Operate your device in a well ventilated location – Don't operate your device near a heat
source or restrict airflow to your device (for example, by operating your device inside a
desk cabinet).
Monitor your ambient temperatures – Make sure the ambient temperature doesn't
exceed the maximum recommended temperatures.
For more information on supported operating temperatures, see "Environmental", page
