Warnings and cautions
Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install or maintain FortiGate-5000 series
equipment. Read and comply with all warnings, cautions and notices in this document.
CAUTION: Risk of Explosion if Battery is replaced by an Incorrect Type. Dispose of Used Batteries According
!
to the Instructions.
Caution: You should be aware of the following cautions and warnings before installing FortiGate-5000 series
!
hardware
• Turning off all power switches may not turn off all power to the FortiGate-5000 series equipment.
Except where noted, disconnect the FortiGate-5000 series equipment from all power sources,
telecommunications links and networks before installing, or removing FortiGate-5000 series
components, or performing other maintenance tasks. Failure to do this can result in personal injury or
equipment damage. Some circuitry in the Fort iGa te-5000 series equipment may continue to operate
even though all power switches are off.
• An easily accessible disconnect device, such as a circuit breaker, should be incorporated into the data
center wiring that connects power to the FortiGate-5000 series equipment.
• Install FortiGate-5000 series chassis at the lower positions of a rack to avoid making the rack top-heavy
and unstable.
• Do not insert metal objects or tools into open chassis slots.
• Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage FortiGate-5000 series equipment. Only perform the
procedures described in this document from an ESD workstation. If no such station is available, you
can provide some ESD protection by wearing an anti-static wrist or ankle strap and attaching it to an
ESD connector or to a metal part of a FortiGate chassis.
• Some FortiGate-500 0 series component s may overload yo ur supply circuit and imp act your overcurre nt
protection and supply wiring. Refer to nameplate ratings to address this concern.
• Make sure all FortiGate-5000 series components have reliable grounding. Fortinet recommends direct
connections to the branch circuit.
• If you install a FortiGate-5000 series component in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating
ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Make sure the
operating ambient temperature does not exceed the manufacturer's maximum rated ambient
temperature.
• Inst alling FortiGate-5000 series equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of airflow required
for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
• This equipment is for installation only in a Restricted Access Location (dedicated equipment room,
service closet or the like), in accordance with the National Electrical Code.
• Per the National Electrical Code, sizing of a Listed circuit breaker or branch circuit fuse and the supply
conductors to the equipment is based on the marked inpu t current rating. A p roduct with a marked input
current rating of 25 A is required to be placed on a 40 A branch circuit. The supply conductors will also
be sized according to the input current rating and also derated for the maximum rated operating
ambient temperature, Tma, of the equipment.
• FortiGate-5000 series equipment shall be installed and connected to an electrical supply source in
accordance with the applicable codes and re gu la tio ns for the location in which it is installed. Particular
attention shall be paid to use of correct wire type and size to comply with the applicable codes and
regulations for the installation / location. Connection of the supply wiring to the terminal block on the
equipment may be accomplished using Listed wire compression lugs, for example, Pressure Terminal
Connector made by Ideal Industries Inc. or equivalent which is suitable for A WG 10. Par ticular attenti on
shall be given to use of the appropriate compre ss ion too l spe cifie d by the compression lug
manufacturer, if one is specified.

FortiGate-5020 chassis
You can install one or two FortiGate-5000 series modules in the two slots of the
FortiGate-5020 ATCA chassis. The FortiGate-5020 is a 4U chassis that contains
two redundant AC to DC power supplies that connect to AC power. The
FortiGate-5020 chassis also includes an internal cooling fan tray. If both slots
contain FortiGate-5001SX modules, the FortiGate-5020 chassis provides a total
of 16 Gigabit ethernet FortiGate interfaces.
If you install the same FortiGate-5000 series module in both slots, you can
configure the modules to operate as an HA cluster . HA hear tbeat communications
between the modules uses the FortiGate-5020 backplane. No extra switching or
other connections are required.
The FortiGate-5020 chassis can only be connected to AC power. Two redundant
FortiGate-5020/5050 power supplies are factory installed in the FortiGate-5020
chassis.
FortiGate-5020 front panel
Figure 1 shows the front of a FortiGate-5020 chassis. Two FortiGate-5002FB2
modules are installed. The FortiGate-5020/5050 power supplies are factory
installed behind the panel a t the top of the chassis. The power LEDs for the power
supplies are visible on the front panel as well.

Caution: Do not operate the FortiGate-5020 chassis with open slots on the front panel. For
optimum cooling performance and safety, the slots must contain a FortiGate-5000 series
