UL Guidelines for Rack Mounted Devices

The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines pertain to the safe installation of the XTP PI 400 in a rack.

1.Elevated operating ambient temperature — 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 temperature. Therefore, install the XTP PI 400 in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature

(Tma = +122 ˚F, +50 ˚C) specified by Extron.

2.Reduced air flow — Install the equipment in a rack so that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.

3.Mechanical loading — Mount the equipment in the rack so that uneven mechanical loading does not cause a hazardous condition.

4.Circuit overloading — Connect the equipment to the supply circuit and consider the effect that circuit overloading might have an overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.

5.Reliable earthing (grounding) — Maintain reliable grounding of rack-mounted equipment. Pay particular attention to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (for example, use of power strips).
