Rack Mount Considerations

Elevated Operating Ambient -
Reduced Air Flow -
Mechanical Loading -
Circuit Overloading -
Reliable Earthing -
Bosch Security Systems, Inc.
If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature
of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration
should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the
Tma (Maximum Ambient Temperature) specified by the manufacturer.
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.
Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is
not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply
circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on over-current
protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate
ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
Reliable earthing 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).
