Rack Mounting Safety Precautions
Elevated Operating Ambient Temperature: If installed in a closed or
multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack
environment may be greater than room ambient temperature. Therefore,
consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an
environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma)
specified by the manufacturer.
Reduced Airflow: Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such
that the amount of airflow required for safe operation of the equipment
is not compromised.
Mechanical Loading: Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be
such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical
loading.
Circuit Overloading: Consideration should be given to the connection of
the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the
circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring.
Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be
used when addressing this concern.
Reliable Earthing: Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be
maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections
other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g., use of power
strips).
