Rack Mounting

Installation environment caution:

1.

Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed

or multi-unit 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.

2.

Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in

a rack should be such that the amount of air flow

required for safe operation of the equipment is not

compromised. Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the

equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous

condition is not created due to uneven mechanical

loading.

3.

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 over-current protection and supply wiring.

Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate

ratings should be used when addressing this concern.

4.

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 circuit (e.g. use of
power strips).”

CAUTION :

Slide/rail mounted equipment is not to be used as a
shelf or a work space.

Inner Rail Installation

Use the following procedures to attach the inner rails to

the chassis.

1. Position the inner rail alongside the side of the

system’s chassis with the finger tab facing outward as

shown in the following diagram.

2. Align the screw holes of the rail and the mounting

holes of the chassis and then attach the inner rail to

the system with crosshead threaded screws.

3. Repeat the above steps for the other rails on the same

side (two inner rails need to be installed on each

side).

4. Attach the front ear bracket (short) to the system.
5. Likewise, attach the inner rails and front ear bracket

to the other side of system’s chassis.

Mounting the outer rails to the rack

Use the following procedures to mount the outer rails to

the rack.
1. Install the outer rail by attacking the rail bracket

to the posts of the rackby using two countersink

screws and conical washers(You may also use the

original manufacture’s rack bracket screws.) Do not

completely tighten the screws; leave them loose so

that the middle rail can slide for adjustment.

2. Extend and adjust the rear bracket to meet the

appropriate depth of the rack and install it to the rack

post firmly with rack bracket screws.

3. Repeat step 1 and 2 above to install the other rail to

the rack.
