Chassis Lifting Guidelines; What To Consider Before Installing The Brackets - RADVision SCOPIA Elite 5200 Series Installation Manual

Chassis Lifting Guidelines

A fully configured SCOPIA Elite 5200 Series MCU chassis weighs approximately 44lbs. (20kg.). The
chassis is not intended to be moved frequently. Before you install the MCU, ensure that your site
is properly prepared, so you can avoid having to move the chassis later to accommodate for power
sources and network connections.
Whenever you lift the chassis or any heavy object, follow these guidelines:
Lift the chassis from the bottom. Grasp the underside of the chassis exterior with both hands.

What to Consider Before Installing the Brackets

When planning your rack installation, consider the following guidelines:

•
Always disconnect all external cables before lifting or moving the chassis.
•
Do not attempt to lift the chassis by yourself; have someone assist you.
•
Ensure that your footing is solid, and balance the weight of the object between your feet.
•
Lift the chassis slowly; never move suddenly or twist your body as you lift.
•
Keep your back straight and lift with your legs, not your back. If you must bend down to lift
the chassis, bend at the knees, not at the waist, to reduce the strain on your lower back
muscles.

•
Install the SCOPIA Elite 5200 Series MCU in an open rack whenever possible. If installation in
an enclosed rack is unavoidable, ensure that the rack has adequate ventilation.
•
Avoid placing the MCU in an overly congested rack or directly next to another equipment rack.
Otherwise, the heated exhaust air from other equipment can enter the inlet air vents and
cause the MCU to overheat.
•
The height of the chassis is 5.25 inches (13.34 cm).
