Where the RM420 is being placed at the bottom of a rack, ventilated
air space may be provided naturally by the design of the rack, and it
may be possible to omit the lower 1U space. An equivalent situation
could exist at the top of a rack.
Similarly the rear panel venting must not be obstructed.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR TTi 19 INCH
RACK KIT TYPE RM420 FOR QPX600
The RM420 rack mount kit is designed to accommodate one
instrument centrally in a tray for a standard 19" wide rack. Two vent
panels are provided for fitting to the tray either side of the instrument.
It is strongly recommended that side supports are used with the tray.
The simplest scheme is to fit fixed side rails to the enclosure; the rack
kit is supplied with adjustable side support brackets designed to rest
on the side rails. Alternatively, if telescopic slide supports are used,
the tray should be drilled and assembled with the side supports before
the instrument is fitted to it.
To prepare the instrument for fitting to the tray turn it upside down so
that it is lying on its top face, spaced from the bench-top by at least
25mm, see Fig 1. Remove the 4 screws which hold the feet; the
screws retaining the tilting front feet are accessed by first prising out
the self-adhesive rubber inserts in the moulded feet.
