UL guidelines for rack mounted devices

The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines

pertain to the safe installation of the MTP U R receiver in a rack.
1

.

Elevated operating ambient temperature

— If installed in

a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient

temperature of the rack environment may be greater than

room ambient temperature. Therefore, install the device

in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient

temperature (Tma = +122 °F, +50 °C) specified by Extron.

2

.

Reduced air flow

— Install the equipment in a rack so that

the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the

equipment is not compromised.

3

.

Mechanical loading

— Mount the equipment in the rack

so that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to

uneven mechanical loading.

4

.

Circuit overloading

— Connect the equipment to

the supply circuit and consider the effect that circuit

overloading might have on overcurrent protection and

supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment

nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this

concern.

5

.

Reliable earthing (grounding)

— Maintain reliable

grounding of rack-mounted equipment. Pay particular

attention to supply connections other than direct

connections to the branch circuit (e.g., use of power strips).
