Location, Mounting, and Ventilation

You may use the 500 watt power supply in rack-mounted or in benchtop applications.

Rack

Mounting

WARNING

Ensure that any mounting screws do not penetrate more than 1/8 in. (3.0 mm) into the bottom and/or back of the unit

The power supply is designed to fill 1/4 of a standard 19 in. (483 mm) equipment rack.

Units can be combined with 300 watt and 60 watt series models for customer applications. Contact the manufacturer about the RM (Rack Mount Kit) option.

Ventilation Whether operating the power supply in a rack or on a bench, allow cooling air to reach the ventilation inlets on the bottom and sides of the unit. Ensure that rack-mounted units have 1 U (1.75 in./44.5 mm) between units. Ventilation space at the top and bottom, or sides of the power supply is essential for proper operation.

See “Environmental Specifications” on page 21, for the operating ambient temperature range and the operating altitude specification.
