CAUTIONS
ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) AND ESD PROTECTION: ESD can
damage disk drives,
HANDLING BOARDS AND MODULES: Boards and modules can be extremely sensitive to ESD and always require careful handling. After removing a board or module from its protective wrapper or from the server, place it
SERVER COOLING AND AIRFLOW: Operating the server with the covers removed can damage the server components. For proper cooling and airflow, always replace the covers before turning on the server.
Equipment Rack Precautions
WARNINGS
ANCHOR THE EQUIPMENT RACK: The equipment rack must be anchored to an unmovable support to prevent it from falling over when one or more servers are extended in front of it on slide assemblies. The anchors must be able to withstand a force of up to 113 kg (250 lbs.). You must also consider the weight of any other device installed in the rack.
MAIN AC POWER DISCONNECT: You are responsible for installing an AC power disconnect for the entire rack unit. This main disconnect must be readily accessible, and it must be labeled as controlling power to the entire unit, not just to the server(s).
GROUNDING THE RACK INSTALLATION: To avoid the potential for an
electrical shock hazard, you must include a third wire safety grounding conductor with the rack installation. If server power cords are plugged into AC outlets that are part of the rack, then you must provide proper grounding for the rack itself. If server power cords are plugged into wall AC outlets, the safety grounding conductor in each power cord provides proper grounding only for the server. You must provide additional, proper grounding for the rack and other devices installed in it.
