Installation Location

Caution: To prevent damage to the tapes and the tape drives, position the autoloader so that no cooling vents are located directly in front of the unit; this helps minimize the amount of foreign debris entering the tape path.

Choose a location that meets the following criteria:

Room temperature: 10ºC to 35ºC (50ºF to 95ºF)

Power source:

AC power voltage: 100 V to 127 V or 200 V to 240 V

Line frequency: 50 Hz to 60 Hz

Air quality: Minimal sources of particulate contamination. Avoid areas near frequently used doors and walkways, stacks of supplies that collect dust, and smoke filled rooms. Avoid placing the autoloader near printing machines as airborne ink contaminates tape drives.

Note: Excessive dust and debris can damage tapes and tape drives.

Humidity: 20% to 80% relative humidity (non-condensing)

Front Clearance: about 2 inches (about 5 cm) from rack door; about 6 inches (about 15 cm) from wall or solid object; about 12 inches (about 30 cm) to insert a cartridge in the mailslot, and about 28 inches (about 71 cm) to insert or remove a magazine.
