Thermal Requirements

In order for the ATCA-F125 to cool properly when the operating temperature is at the
maximum (55°C), the chassis must meet or exceed CP-TA B.3 ATCA Chassis
Specification. CP-TA B.4 compliance is preferred.
Contact your SMART Embedded Computing sales representative for current information
on the detailed thermal information including airflow and resistance of the blade.
System Overheating–Cooling Vents
Improper cooling can lead to system damage and can void the manufacturer's
warranty.
To ensure proper cooling and undisturbed airflow through the system, do not
obstruct the ventilation openings of the system. Make sure that the fresh air supply
is not mixed with hot exhaust from other devices.
Personal Injury
During operation, hot surfaces may be present on the heat sinks and the
components of the product.
To prevent injury from hot surface, do not touch any of the exposed components or
heatsinks on the product when handing. Use the handle and face plate, where
applicable, or the board edge when removing the product from the enclosure.
