6.1 Avoiding general rack mounting problems
Elevated operating ambient temperature
The operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than
the room ambient when installing into a closed or multi-unit rack assembly. So
install the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum rated
ambient temperature.
Reduced airflow
Install the equipment in a rack in such a way that the amount of airflow required
for safe operation is not compromised.
Mechanical loading
Mount the equipment in the rack in such a way that a hazardous condition is not
achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
Circuit overloading
When connecting the equipment to the supply circuit, consider the effect that
overloading of circuits might have on over-current protection and supply wiring.
Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Give attention
to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of
power strips).
7. Rack mounting the IP Control
The IP Control comes with screw holes on the side for easy rack mounting, see
figure below.
Screw holes for bracket
Figure 3 Screw holes for rack mounting
Use the L-shaped brackets and screws provided to mount the IP Control on a server
rack or under a table top as illustrated below. The length of the screws used for
connecting the brackets to the IP Control unit must not exceed 5 mm.
