Installation Site Requirements
Installation Planning 2-7
■ Minimum height =231.4 cm (91 in.)
■ Maximum height =236.6 cm (93.15 in.)
Adjust the floor-to-module distance to meet the "Co-planar Requirements" on
page 2-6. The floor-to-module distance should be adjusted to 25.4 mm ± 0.8 mm (1 in.
± 0.0325 in.). The absolute minimum floor-to-module height permitted is 19 mm (0.75
in.) the maximum height is 47mm (1.85 in.).
Clearances
The table below lists the minimum library-to-ceiling clearances for installation of side
covers, front and rear doors, and the upper modules. To calculate maximum height,
use the library height and add the overhead clearance.
Environmental Requirements
For optimal reliability, maintain the environment between the recommended ranges.
Airborne Contaminants
Airborne particulates can damage tape libraries, drives, and tapes. The operating
environment for the tape library must meet to the following requirements:
■ ISO 14644-1 Class 8 Environment
■ Total mass of airborne particulates must be less than or equal to 200 micrograms
per cubic meter
■ Severity level G1 per ANSI/ISA 71.04-1985
Particles ten microns or smaller are particularly harmful to most data processing
hardware. Gasses that are particularly dangerous to electronic components include
chlorine compounds, ammonia and its derivatives, oxides of sulfur, and petrol
hydrocarbons. In the absence of appropriate hardware exposure limits, health
exposure limits must be used.
Humidification with chlorinated water is a common source of airborne chlorine.
Appropriately-designed carbon filters must be used to ensure safe levels of airborne
chlorine when chlorinated water is used for humidification.
