loading must be considered. Also, do not rest any unsupported equipment on a rack-
mounted

iPump 562

unit.

Circuit Overloading

Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and
the effect that overloading of circuits could have on overcurrent protection and supply
wiring. Ensure that the total rack or breaker power consumption does not exceed the limits
of the AC branch circuit. Appropriate consideration of equipment ratings should be used
when addressing this concern.

Reliable Earthing

When connecting the

iPump 562

unit to the power supply, review the ratings of all

equipment in the circuit to ensure that the branch circuit, as well as the power source, will
not be overloaded. Also make sure that the unit is properly grounded and/or that a protected
power strip is used to attach it to the power supply

Rack Mounting

The

iPump 562

unit should be installed in such a way that a half-inch clearance is allowed

on each side and a quarter-inch on the top to ensure adequate air flow. Ensure that a
hazardous condition is not produced by uneven loading, or by resting any unsupported
equipment on a rack-mounted

iPump 562

unit.

Parts for the

iPump 562

unit include 2 angle rack mount brackets and 4 rubber feet. For rack

mounting, do not attach the rubber feet as they interfere with the rack mounting.

1. Remove the 2 screws from the left and right sides of the unit.

2. Insert the angle brackets into the left and right sides of the unit ensuring that the

screw holes for the unit and brackets are aligned.

3. Secure the brackets by re-inserting the screws through the brackets and unit.

4. Install the unit onto the rack.

Note: The front brackets must be secured to the rack. If the front brackets are left

unsecured, the unit may shift forward and fall from the rack, and may result in
personal injury and/or damage to the equipment. The internal temperature of the

rack should not exceed 40

o

C.

Desktop Installation

Parts for the

iPump 562

unit include 2 angle rack mount brackets and 4 rubber feet. For

desktop installation, do not attach the brackets.

1. Attach the 4 rubber feet onto the indented areas at the bottom of the unit.

2. Place the unit on a flat surface where it will not be subject to spills or impacts.

3. Route cables to the unit so that they will not be hit or pulled, causing damage to the

connectors or to the unit itself. Ensure a sufficient flow of cool air so that the unit's
operating ambient temperature range is not exceeded.
