Redundant Power Supply Temperature/Humidity 40℃ 0℃ Please keep a proper temperature and humidity in the equipment room. Too high/low humidity may lead to bad insulation, electricity leakage, mechanical property changes and corrosions. Too high temperature may accelerate aging of the insulation materials and can thus significantly shorten the service life of the device.
Redundant Power Supply Keep the device far from high-frequency, strong-current devices, such as radio ■ transmitting station. Use electromagnetic shielding when necessary. ■ Lightening Protection Extremely high voltage currents can be produced instantly when lightning occurs and the air in the electric discharge path can be instantly heated up to 20,000℃. As this instant current is strong enough to damage electronic devices, more effective lightning protection measures should be taken.
Phillips Screwdriver ■ ESD-preventive wrist wrap ■ Product Installation The RPS150 can be installed either in a standard 19-inch rack via RPS2 or directly on a tabletop. Desktop Installation ■ To install the device on the desktop, please follow the steps: Caution: Please set 5~10cm gaps around the device for heat dissipation and air circulation.
