Product Support and Safety, continued
Operating
Environment
• The D20/D200’s enclosure is intended for indoor use primarily to provide
protection against accidental contact with the enclosed modules and voltages. Do
not place the product in environments where unusual conditions exist
(windblown dust and dirt, liquids, etc.) without a secondary protective enclosure.
• For proper fire protection, the D20/D200 must be installed in an enclosure that
includes a metal floor with no openings.
• Never operate the D20/D200 in the field with any blanking panels removed.
Operation with the front panel open may alter product performance
specifications, and allow component damage from debris entering the unit.

Protection
during
Maintenance
Ensure that the D20/D200 is protected from falling debris during maintenance.
Small metallic particles (such as wire clippings) can fall through the ventilation holes
on the top of the unit, possibly damaging or interfering with the safe and reliable
operation of the D20/D200.
If you cover the unit for maintenance, remove cover before operating to provide
adequate cooling airflow.
Operation in
Residential
Areas
The D20/D200 generates radio frequency energy. If it is not operated and used in
accordance with the instructions provided in this guide, it may cause harmful
interference to radio communications in a residential area. Users are required to
correct interference at their own expense.
!
Rack Spacing
for free airfl
ow
When mounting multiple D20/D200s in a rack (or if mounting a D20/D200 in a rack
with other equipment) verify that there is at least one rack unit (RU) space above and
below the D20/D200 to allow for cooling airflow (1 RU = 1.75 inches).

WESMAINT
Cable
Use only
a standard PROMAINT cable (GE Energy part number 977-0048) when
you are connecting to the D20ME or ME II’s front-panel WESMAINT connector.
Use of any other cable may cause serious damage.
