Safety Instructions for Rack Mounting

Safety Instructions - Rack

Mount

The following or similar rack-mount instructions are included with the installation instructions.

A) Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-rack assembly, the operating ambient

temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration

should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient

temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.

B) Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in the rack should be such that the amount of air

flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.

C) Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous

condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.

D) Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the

supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and

supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when

addressing these concerns.

E) Reliable Earthing - Reliable Earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular

attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch current

(e.g. use of power strips).”
