Rack mounting

UL guidelines

The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines pertain to the installation of the transmitter or receiver into or onto a rack (figure 2-1).

1. Elevated operating ambient — If the equipment is installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consider installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the +122 °F (+50 °C) maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by Extron.

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.

3. Mechanical loading — Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.

4. 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 overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.

5. Reliable earthing (grounding) — 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 (such as the use of power strips).

Rack mounting instructions

For optional rack mounting, mount the transmitter or receiver on any of the following rack shelves:

•RSF 123 3.5" deep 1U VersaTools® rack shelf kit (part #60-190-20) (figure 2-1)

•RSB 123 3.5" deep 1U VersaTools rack shelf (part #60-604-20)

•RSU 126 6" deep 1U universal rack shelf kit (part #60-190-10)

•RSB 126 6" deep 1U basic rack shelf (part #60-604-10)

•RSU 129 9.5" deep 1U universal rack shelf kit (part #60-190-01) (figure 2-2on the next page)

•RSB 129 9.5" deep 1U basic rack shelf (part #60-604-01)

On the non-VersaTools rack shelves, the transmitter or receiver unit can be mounted in the front or the rear of the rack.

1. Remove the feet from the bottom of the transmitter or receiver unit, if they are installed.

2. Mount the transmitter or receiver unit using two 4-40 x 3/16" screws in opposite (diagonal) corners to secure the transmitter or receiver to the shelf.

3. Install false faceplate(s) or other unit(s) to the rack shelf.
