Extron electronic XPA2001-100V, XPA2001-70V, XPA1002 manual Rack Mounting of the Amplifier

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

The XPA 1002 or XPA 2001 can be mounted in a rack shelf using the optional

RSU 129 1U Universal rack shelf (Extron part #60-190-01) or the 1U Basic rack shelf (Extron part #60-604-02), as follows.

1.If feet were installed on the bottom of the amplifier, remove them.

2.• Place the amplifier on one half of the rack shelf.

•Align the front of the amplifier with the front of the shelf, and align the threaded holes on the bottom of the amplifier with the holes in the rack shelf.

3.• Attach the amplifier to the rack shelf with the two provided 4-40 x 3/16” machine screws.

•Insert the screws from the underside of the shelf, and securely fasten them into diagonally-opposite corners.

See the following illustration.

1U Universal Rack Shelf

1/2 Rack Width Front False

Faceplate

Front false faceplate uses 2 screws.

(2) 4-40 x 3/16" Screws

Use 2 mounting holes on opposite corners.

ATTENTION: Failure to follow these instructions may result in damage to the unit.

Using screws longer than 3/16” will damage the unit and void the warranty.

4.Attach the false front panel (provided with rack shelf part #60-190-01) to the unoccupied side of the rack (as shown above), or install a second half-rack-width device in that side by repeating steps 1 through 3.

5.Attach the rack shelf to the rack using four 10-32 x ¾” bolts (provided). Insert the bolts through #10 beveled washers, then through the holes in the rack, as shown above.
