4.1

Installing the CPSMC18xx-xxx Chassis

The CPSMC18xx-xxx 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 CPSMC18xx-xxx 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 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 CPSMC18xx-xxx
chassis is 50°C. (60°C when using load-sharing power supply modules) If the
CPSMC18xx-xxx 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:
connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g., use of power
strips) should be employed.
Flush Alignment
at front
The CPSMC18xx-xxx 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.
