Space Around the Chassis
When the Adept MV Controller is installed vertically, allow 25mm (1 inch) at the top and
bottom of the chassis for proper air cooling. For the MV-5/10, allow 75mm (3 inches) and
for the MV-19, allow 50mm (2 inches) at the front of the Adept MV Controller for power
and signal cable clearance.
CAUTION: Keep the air filters clean so the forced air cooling system can
work efficiently. See section 5.4 on page 107 for details on cleaning the
filters.
Installation in a Rack or Panel Mount
The power chassis and controller can be mounted in a rack or panel by using the
mounting brackets that are shipped in the accessories kit. The brackets can be attached at
the rear of the controller/power chassis for panel mounting or they can be attached to the
front of the controller/power chassis for rack mounting.
Panel Mounting
To panel mount the controller or power chassis, install one bracket on each side near the
back of the chassis. Use the screws and washers from the accessories kit (see Figure 2-3
and Figure 2-4).
Rack Mounting
To rack mount the Adept PA-4 power chassis joined to an Adept MV-5/10 controller in a
standard 19-inch equipment rack, use the mounting brackets, screws, and washers from
the accessories kit. The brackets can be installed in two positions for rack mounting, flush
and set-back (see Figure 2-3 and Figure 2-4).
To rack mount the Adept MV-19 Controller in a standard 19-inch equipment rack, use the
mounting brackets, screws, and washers provided with the accessories kit (see Figure 2-3).
To rack mount the controller or power chassis by itself in a standard 19-inch equipment
rack, you must first install the mounting brackets, then build an extender panel and attach
it to the bracket on one side of the chassis.
