library.
The floor must be level to within 0.25 inch (6.4 mm) over a 6-foot-by-6foot (1.83-meter-by-1.83-meter) area.
For the United States and Canada, one or two UL/CSA certified power

cords are furnished. Each uses a 14/3 SJT cord, a 5-20P plug, and an
IEC-C320 C19 female connector (see figure 3

The library is rated 100-240V~, 50-60Hz, 16A-8A, 1600W.
The library power requirements may require modification of the
facilities existing power capabilities by a qualified electrician. The
required wall outlet for the United States and Canada is rated at 125V
20A (see figure 4
).

The dedicated wall outlet and a 20 amp circuit breaker must provide
power to the ATL P7000 only. Outside North America, replace the
2
supplied power cord with a harmonized 3 x 1.5 mm
power cord that
is approved by the country where used, and install the appropriate
wall outlet. More information on the electrical requirements is
provided in the ATL P7000 Pre-Installation Site Survey Instructions.
Caution: The ATL P7000 must be connected to a grounded
electrical outlet.

• Keep the library power cord plugged into a grounded power
outlet except when working with AC electrical components.
• Avoid contact with power supplies, EMI filters, and AC electrical
components while the library is connected to a power outlet.
• Use an antistatic wrist strap.
• Keep static-sensitive parts in their original shipping containers
until ready for installation.
• Do not place static-sensitive parts on a metal surface. Place them
inside their protective shipping bag or on an antistatic mat.
• Avoid touching connectors and other components.
Note: Dry climates and cold-weather heating environments have
lower relative humidity and are more likely to produce static
electricity.
Unpacking the Library 0
This section explains how to unpack the library and move it to its final
installation location. The ATL P7000 is shipped in packing materials
designed to protect it from damage during transit. By following these
instructions, you help ensure that the library will continue to be
safeguarded after it arrives at the installation site.
The following are the major steps in this procedure:
• Receiving the library
• Unboxing the library
• Positioning the library
• Unpacking the library
• Leveling the library
