CPSMC13xx-100 Chassis

4.1

Installing the CPSMC13xx-100 Chassis

The CPSMC13xx-100 can be installed in a standard 19-inch rack or on a table, shelf,
or other stable surface.
CAUTION: Install the chassis so that the air flow around it is not restricted.
4.1.1 Table-Top Installation
The CPSMC13xx-100 chassis is shipped with nine (9) rubber feet for optional
installation on a table or other flat, stable surface in a well-ventilated area. If table-
top installation is desired, remove the rubber feet from the card and place them on
the bottom of the chassis. Distribute the feet evenly so that the chassis is level when
placed upright.
4.1.2

Standard 19-inch Rack Installation

The maximum recommended ambient temperature (Tmra) for the CPSMC13xx-100
chassis is 50°C. If the chassis is installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly,
the operating ambient temperature of the the rack environment may be greater
than room ambient.
NOTE:
Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct
connections to the branch circuit (e.g., use of power strips).
Flush Alignment
at front
The chassis is designed so that the installation brackets can be installed to align the
chassis either flush against the front or back edge of the rack or recessed from the
front or back edge of the rack.
Warning: Select mounting bracket locations on the chassis that will keep the chassis balanced when
mounted in the rack. Failure to observe this warning could allow the chassis to fall, resulting in
equipment damage and/or possible injury to personnel.
