SANBloc S50 Quick Install Guide

Connecting to the Main Power —

Install the server near an easily accessible

power source. Make sure the power source is the proper voltage for your

model. Place the power cord out of the way of traffic; do not place any

object over the power cord. Each storage subsystem must have a good

electrical ground connection through each power cord, through the

building power grid to the point of origin for the building power source

entry.
If the server is taken offline for an extended period, disconnect it from the

power source to avoid possible damage from a power surge.

Enclosure Openings —

Openings in the enclosure ensure proper airflow

and prevent overheating; do not cover these openings. Never place

liquids on or near the server to avoid spillage; liquid entering an

enclosure opening could cause fire or electrical shock.

Earthing —

When installing the server in any location (including rack

mounting), the installer must validate that the AC input grounding is

adequate and that the AC circuit capacity is sufficient and does not create

a circuit overload situation. Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment

should be maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply

connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (for

example, use of power strips).

Circuit Overloading—

Consideration should be given to the connection of

the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of

circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring.

Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be

used when addressing the concern.

Cleaning the Server —

Before cleaning the server, be sure to disconnect all

cabling. Do not use any liquid or spray cleaning agents to clean the

server; use only a damp sheet or cloth.

Servicing the Server —

Never open the Snap Server. For safety reasons,

the server should only be opened by qualified service personnel.
Do not attempt a remedy if one of the following situations arises; contact

Adaptec technical support for assistance:
• The power cord or plug is damaged.
