2-5. Placement and Rack Mounting
Place the calibrator on top of a bench or mounted in a standard-width, 24-inch (61-cm)
deep equipment rack. For bench-top use, the calibrator is equipped with non-slipping,
non-marring feet. To mount the calibrator in an equipment rack, use the Rack Mount Kit,
Model Y-5737; instructions are included with the kit. For convenience, the rack mount
instruction sheet can be stored in the binder of this manual.
2-6. Cooling Considerations
Caution
Damage caused by overheating may occur if the area around
the air intake is restricted, the intake air is too warm, or the air
filter becomes clogged.
A hidden but important feature of the calibrator is its internal cooling system. Baffles
direct cooling air from the fans throughout the chassis to internally dissipate heat during
operation. The accuracy and dependability of all internal parts of the calibrator are
enhanced by maintaining the coolest possible internal temperature. By observing the
following rules, you can lengthen the life of the calibrator and enhance its performance:
• The area around the air filter must be at least 3 inches from nearby walls or rack
enclosures.
• The exhaust perforations on the sides of the calibrator must be clear of obstructions.
• The air entering the instrument must be room temperature. Make sure that exhaust
from another instrument is not directed into the fan inlet.
• Clean the air filter every 30 days or more frequently if the calibrator is operated in a
dusty environment. (Instructions for cleaning the air filter are in Chapter 7.)
