Air Conditioning Requirements

Air conditioning will almost certainly be required for both the Machine and Control rooms in order to maintain the temperature and humidity to within the required levels.

Power dissipation figures for console control surface and equipment rack are listed in Appendix A. Appendix E contains the environmental specification for SSL equipment.

Cable Ducting

Cable ducting will be required between the console and the Machine room (as well as to any outboard racks and the recording areas). The ducting provided should be of sufficient size such that approximately 50mm x 35mm is available for console surface connection.

The connectors for all control and interface cables are located beneath the console’s Centre Section. The connector panels are orientated so that cables will route towards the rear of the desk.

The mains input power connector will be located on a separate panel. This panel is usually positioned in a bay adjacent to the Centre Section nearest to the centre of the console but may vary due to console layout.

Cable sets are available in 10, 16, 20, 25, 48 and 80m standard lengths. Sets longer than 16m are at additional cost.

Service Access

Access to all major electronic assemblies within the frame is either from the front or from beneath the console. The meter LCD panels are retained by finger-screw fastener beneath the top trim. The top trim is designed to hinge upwards to allow access to these screws. If the console is being built into restricted space – as in some mobile installations – then always allow a minimum of 80mm clearance above the top trim (see opposite).

Sufficient clearance must be provided in front of and behind the rack into which the Centuri processor is installed so that cards can easily be removed. See the drawing on page 10 for minimum clearances.
