Site Preparation and Installation Guide Introduction Thank you for purchasing Agilent's M9514A AXIe 14-slot Chassis. To get you started and to assure a successful and timely installation, we’ve developed this Site Preparation Guide. Please read it carefully and follow all guidelines.
Plan the Chassis Installation Plan the Chassis Installation The M9514A can be used as either as a bench top or rack mounted chassis. Consider your anticipated chassis weight (with modules installed), power, noise, ventilation requirements, and rack mounting options to ensure safety and optimize access to test and control instrumentation.
This may overheat and damage components. AC Line Voltage Requirements The M9514A comes prewired for a 3-phase Wye with Neutral configuration for use with 220/380V, 230/400V, and 240/415C AC lines. Please consult Agilent Support if you need otehr power entry configurations.
Networking (LAN). All the necessary software and licensing comes with the chassis but you will need to purchase and install the cabling and associated hardware external to the chassis. Refer to the M9514A and M9521A User Guide for additional information.
ESD protection. Of the two, only the table-mat and wrist-strap combination provides adequate ESD protection when used alone. To ensure user safety, the static-safe accessories must provide at least 1 M of isolation from ground. Keysight M9514A Site Preparation and Installation Guide...

(this Site Preparation Guide and the M9514A Startup Guide). Lift off the shipping carton. Use a mechanical lift to lift the M9514A and packaging from the base of the shipping carton. While the chassis is still on the mechanical lift, remove the packaging foam and protective plastic from the chassis.

Site Preparation and Installation Guide Rack Mount the Chassis Up to three M9514A chassis will fit in a standard (19”) 2 meter rack (such as the Agilent E3662B). Use one option Y1229A Rail Kit for each rack-mounted chassis. All of the major field replaceable units (fan trays, power supplies, etc.) can be replaced while the chassis is installed in a rack.
