III. Installing Your Cabinet
3.1 Choosing a Suitable Location
Locationimpactsthenatureandextentofexternalairowdisturbances,whichmayaffectperformanceofthe
cabinet when it is exposed to these disturbances.
Wheninstallingthecabinet,itshouldbelocatedasfarawayaspossiblefromsourcesofairowdisturbance
andinanorientationwhichoptimallyshieldstheairowofthecabinetfromallexternalairowdisturbances.
Please note that the cabinet should not be placed close to another cabinet.
Please follow these guidelines when choosing a suitable location for your cabinet:
• The location must be far away from:
» Personneltrafcows.
» Air vents (in and out).
» Doors and windows.
» Any other sources of disruptive air currents or air drafts.
• Ifdraftsorotherdisruptiveaircurrentsexceedthefacevelocityofthelter,thepotentialexistsforcontam-
inated air to enter the work zone of the cabinet.
• A minimum distance of 50 cm (20 in) to the top of the ceiling is recommended for blower changing
purposes.
• Aclearanceof183cm(6ft)infrontofthecabinetisstronglyadvisedinordertomaintainproperairow.
• Please permit adequate space for cleaning behind the cabinet.
