5 Installing on a Rack
This section describes what to do before installing on a rack (see section 5.1)
and how to install on a rack (see section 5.2).
5.1 Before Installing on a Rack
Before installing the machine in a 19" rack, be sure that the environment is
within the recommended range:
Table 3: Recommended Ambient Temperature and Humidity Range
Operating temperature range +5 to +45 Deg. Centigrade
Operating humidity range
5 to 65 % RHL, non-condensing
Storage temperature range -20 to +70 Deg. Centigrade
Storage humidity range 5 to 95% RHL, non-condensing
5.1.1 CAUTION!!
When installing the FC-4046 in a 19" rack, avoid hazards by taking care that:
1. It is located within the recommended environmental conditions, as the
operating ambient temperature of a closed or multi-unit rack assembly may
exceed the room ambient temperature.
2. Once rack-mounted, enough air will still flow around the machine.
3. The machine is placed straight in the correct horizontal position.
4. You do not overload the circuit(s). When connecting the machine to the
supply circuit, overloading the circuits might have a detrimental effect on
overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Refer to the appropriate
nameplate ratings for information. For example, for fuse replacement, see
the value printed on the product label.
5. The machine is earthed (grounded) in a reliable way and is connected
only to an electricity socket with grounding. Pay particular attention to
supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (for
example, the use of power strips), and that you use only the power cord
that is supplied with the machine.
5.2 Instructions for Rack-Mounting
To install the FC-4046 in a 19" rack, place the rack ears of the machine
against the rack rails of the rack, and insert the proper rack screws through
each of the four holes in the rack ears 1 .
1 Always mount the machine in the rack before you attach any cables or connect the machine to the power. If you are using a
Kramer rack adapter kit (for a machine that is not 19"), refer to the Rack Adapters user manual (download it at:
