INSTALLATION
4. Mounting
Use four screws and washers when mounting the amplifier to the front rack rails.
For mobile and touring use, the amplifier should also be secured using the 19”
mounting elements on the rear panel.
4.1 Mounting Dimensions Q-POWER 14
4.2 Cooling
The air is taken in from the front and streams out through the back. It is essential
that while the amplifier is running the air is able to circulate around it freely.
The efficiency of the cooling will depend on the immediate environment (e.g. an
enclosed rack, direct sunlight). If the amp is installed in a case or rack, please
make sure the air outlet vents are not obstructed in any way, so that the hot air
is able to stream out freely.
4.3 Fans
The fans mounted in the Q-POWER 14 operate permanently, but as long as
the temperature remains below 40 °C they run at their slowest speed and can
hardly be heard. The highest detected temperature from either the amplifier
stages or the power supply controls the speed of the fans: above 40 °C the
speed is increased until it reaches its maximum value.
