3).
After all screws have been inserted, hand tighten them using a PH2 screw
driver to ensure secure installation.
2.
Ensure the rack is adequate for the unit (weight) and the application.
3.
Use the mounting hardware recommended by the rack manufacturer to mount
the unit in the rack. Four mounting screws, compatible with the rack design,
must be used and hand tightened to ensure secure installation
4.
While Advantech does not supply support brackets, slide rails are available for
separate order. Please refer to section 2.5 for options.
5.
Choose a mounting location where all four mounting holes line up with those of
the mounting bars of the 19-inch cabinet.
6.
Choose a mounting location that does not block any air inlet and air outlet areas
of the unit, It is also recommended to factor in heat generated by adjacent
equipment and to avoid exposure to direct sunlight when mounting the unit. If
installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient tempera-
ture of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, con-
sideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment
compatible with the maximum recommended ambient temperature per section
2.3.
