Selecting a site

WARNING: To prevent fire or electric shock, install the
unit in a temperature- and humidity-controlled indoor
environment, free of conductive contaminants.

When selecting a site, consider the following factors:

• Elevated operating ambient temperature—If the equipment is
installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating
ambient temperature of the rack environment might be greater
than room ambient temperature. Install the equipment in an
environment compatible with the operating temperature.

• Reduced air flow—In the rack, the rate of air flow required for
safe operation of the equipment must not be compromised.

• Circuit overloading—Consideration should be given to the
connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect
that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent
protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of
equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing
this concern.

• Reliable earthing—Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment
should be maintained. Particular attention should be given to
supply connections other than direct connections to the branch
circuit, such as the use of power strips.
