Strata CTX100-S/CTX100 Installation

Site Requirements

The AC outlet is recommended to be dedicated and unswitched, with a solid third-wire ground. (See “AC Power and Grounding Requirements” on page 3-4.) This eliminates interference from branch circuit motor noise or the like, and to prevent accidental power-off. To avoid accidental power turn-off, Toshiba recommends that you do not use an On/Off wall switch on this dedicated AC circuit.

For the Strata CTX100, a reserve power source (two or four customer-supplied 12VDC batteries) may be connected to the system to serve as a power failure backup.

Cabinet Size and Weight

The wall that will support the CTX100 should be able to support 35 lbs. The weight of each cabinet is shown in Table 2-1 on page 2-2.

Clearance and Location

The minimum clearance requirements for the Strata CTX100 Base and Expansion cabinets are shown in Figure 3-1.

Consider the following conditions when selecting a location for the Cabinet(s):

The location must be:

Dry and clean

Well ventilated

Well illuminated

Easily accessible The location must not be:

Subject to extreme heat or cold

Subject to corrosive fumes, dust, or other airborne contaminants

Subject to excessive vibration

Next to television, radio, office automation, or high frequency equipment

If reserve power is to be installed for the Strata CTX100, the batteries will require a well- ventilated location close (within nine feet) to the CTX100 (the optional Toshiba-supplied battery cable is nine feet in length).
