When you mount the PA1235X, you should plan its location carefully. Pay close attention to each of the following factors:

1.The amplifier is convection cooled. That is, it depends on the natural free flow of air up through the slot perforations in the bottom plate, over the internal heat dissipating fins, then out the top cover, for adequate cooling.

2.If mounted in an equipment cabinet or other confining location, allow at least 2 inches of space above the top cover (see Fig. 4). Be sure there are large openings in the shelf below the unit and in the cabinet to allow the entry of cool air and the escape of warm air.

Note: Do not remove feet in shelf-top installations.

3.If the cabinet contains other heat generating components or you are using several PA1235X's in a large multi-zone system, you will have to pay even closer attention to adequate ventilation.

4.Do not hesitate to use fans (quiet, boxer type), if necessary, to ensure a constant flow of air through the PA1235X's and the other heat generating components.

5.When mounting in a 19" (483mm) rack, adding a single RU (Rack Unit) above and below the PA1235X will improve convection in heavy use applications.

[One Rack Unit size = 1-3/4" (44.5mm) in height].

6.In multi-zone installations, you will have large bundles of wire and cable to accommodate audio, video and speaker connections. Be sure to allow enough room for the leads and dress them in such a manner so as not to block airflow.

7.The PA1235X is designed for mounting into standard 19" Rack Panels or on flat horizontal surfaces. When mounting into a 19" rack, use the rack panel cup washers and screws supplied.

NOTE: You should consider some sort of rear support for rack mounted units when used in mobile applications or when located in seismically active areas.
