Prerequisites
Procedure steps
241-1501-240 5.2S2
Install the shelf-based cooling unit into a mounting apparatus other than a
NEBS 2000 frame to ensure that ambient temperature inside the Passport can
be maintained.
•
You must be familiar with "Safety considerations and best practices"
(page 53).
•
The shelf-based cooling unit is included in the shelf-based kits NTQS04
for a Passport 15000 or NTQH04 for a Passport 20000. To install the
shelf-based cooling unit, you need this part:
— NTHR52AA or NTHR52AB, Passport 15000 or 20000 upper
cooling unit assembly
•
You need a helper to hold the cooling unit until it is fastened because it
weighs about 9 kg (20 lbs) and tends to slide out of position before it is
fastened to the rack.
•
As shown in the figure "Position and orientation of the upper cooling unit
NTHR52 in a 23-inch wide rack" (page 517), the cooling unit must be
mounted in the lowest equipment position on the mounting apparatus.
Enough room must remain above it to install:
— the shelf assembly flush against it
— the upper temperature sensor bracket assembly
— about 10 cm (4 in.) of ventilation space
— the strain relief bar
— the BIP
•
The front of the rack is the side that faces or will face the same way as
the front of the Passport 15000 or 20000.

Hold the ends of the cooling unit so that
•
you face the fans
•
the open side is at the top
