2. Attach the user-supplied ground lug using M3 screws.
Order a UL-certified GND lug with bracket separately.
3. Attach the other end of the ground cable to a suitable ground point such as the rack or cabinet.
Rack or cabinet hardware installation
You may either place the platform on a rack shelf or mount the application directly into a 19" wide, EIA-310- E-compliant rack.
The platform includes two-post rail assemblies.
WARNING:
This document is a condensed reference. Read the safety instructions in your Safety, Environmental,
and Regulatory information booklet before you begin.
NOTE: The figures in this document are not intended to represent a specific platform.
NOTE: Do not the use the mounted two-post rails as a shelf or a workplace.
Rack mount safety considerations
● Rack loading—Overloading or uneven loading of racks may result in shelf or rack failure, possibly damaging the equipment
and causing personal injury. Stabilize racks in a permanent location before loading begins. Mount the components starting at
the bottom of the rack, and then work to the top. Do not exceed your load rating of the rack.
● Power considerations—Connect only to the power source specified on the unit. When you install multiple electrical
components in a rack, ensure that the total component power ratings do not exceed the circuit capabilities. Overloaded
power sources and extension cords present fire and shock hazards.
● Elevated ambient temperature—If installed in a closed rack assembly, the operating temperature of the rack environment
may be greater than the room ambient temperature. Use care not to exceed the 45°C maximum ambient temperature of the
platform.
● Reduced air flow—Install the equipment in the rack so that the amount of airflow that is required for safe operation of the
equipment is not compromised.
● Reliable earthing—Maintain reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment. Pay particular attention to the supply connections
other than the direct connections to the branch circuit, for example, use of power strips.
● Do not mount the equipment with the back panel facing downward.
