WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
Secure Racking
If secure racked units are installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, they may
require further evaluation by certification agencies. Consider the following items:
1. The ambient temperature within the rack may be greater than the room ambient
temperature. Installation should be such that the amount of airflow required for safe
operation is not compromised. The maximum temperature for the equipment in this
environment is 122°F (50°C).
2. Install the unit so that it doesn’t become unstable from uneven loading.
Input Supply
Check nameplate ratings to ensure that there is no overloading of supply circuits that
could have an effect on overcurrent protection and supply wiring.
Grounding
Maintain reliable grounding of this equipment. Give particular attention to supply
connections when connecting to power strips, rather than direct connections to the
branch circuit.

two power supply cables, make certain to disconnect both power supply cables from their
power source before attempting to service or remove the unit.
