Safety Instructions - Rack Mount
Marking or Instruction Details:
"Rack Mount Instructions - The following or similar rack-mount instructions are included with the
installation instructions:
A) Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient
temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should
be given to installing the equipment in an environment
compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.
B) Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow
required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
C) Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition
is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
D) 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.
E) 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
(e.g.use of power strips)."
" Instructions de montage en Rack - Les instructions de montage en rack suivantes ou similaires sont
incluses dans les instructions d'installation :
A) Température ambiante de fonctionnement - S'il est installé dans un rack fermé ou à unités multiples , la
température ambiante de fonctionnement du rack peut être supérieure à la température ambiante de la
pièce . Par conséquent , il faut envisager d'installer l'équipement dans un environnement compatible avec
la température ambiante maximale ( Tam), spécifiée par le fabricant .
B) Débit d'air réduit – L’installation de l'équipement dans un rack doit être telle que la quantité de flux d'air
nécessaire au bon fonctionnement de l'équipement ne soit pas compromise.
C) Charge mécanique - Le montage de l'équipement dans le rack doit être tel qu'une situation dangereuse
ne soit pas liée à une charge mécanique irrégulière .
D) Surcharge du circuit d’alimentation- Il faut tenir compte de la connexion de l'équipement au circuit
d'alimentation et l' effet que la surcharge des circuits pourrait avoir sur la protection contre les
surintensités et les câbles d'alimentation . Un examen approprié des notes des équipements et de la plaque
signalétique doit être fait pour traiter cette préoccupation .
E) Mise à la terre fiable – La mise à la terre fiable du matériel monté en rack doit être maintenue . Une
attention particulière doit être apportée aux connexions d'alimentation autres que les connexions directes
au circuit.(par exemple l'utilisation de multiprises ) " .
