2.3
Installation
The 2105 amplifiers are packaged in a rugged
powder-coated aluminum chassis. This chassis is
2U (rack units) tall, and has rack "ears" on each
side of the front panel for mounting to a standard
EIA (Electronic Industries Association) rack. Use
standard rack mounting hardware to mount the
amplifier. Use nylon washers if you wish to protect
the powder-coat finish on the front of the amplifier.
Optionally, the amplifier can be placed on a
bench top; please keep in mind that the protective
powder-coating can be scratched when placed
on other equipment or on a bench top, especially
when there is dirt present. To protect the finish, a
set of rubber feet is included in the toolkit that can
be installed on the bottom of the amplifier.
Allow ample space on the sides and especially
the back of the amplifier for heated air to escape.
The amplifier should be mounted in a rack that is
adequately ventilated and not sealed. Likewise,
the front of the amplifier should be unobstructed to
allow cool air to enter the amplifier.
CAUTION
Do not operate the amplifier in a small
sealed chamber of any kind. Improper
operations and overheating will result.
