Operating Environment
The 5071A may be operated in temperatures from 0 to 55˚ C. Refer to
the environmental specifications in chapter 6 for more detailed
information.
Bench Operation
The instrument has plastic feet for convenience in bench operation.
The plastic feet are keyed to facilitate self-alignment when stacking
instruments.
THE 5071A WEIGHS 30 KG (66 LBS). CARE MUST BE TAKEN
WHEN LIFTING THE INSTRUMENT TO AVOID PERSONNEL
INJURY. ALWAYS USE SLIDING RAILS OR RACK TRAY
WHEN RACK MOUNTING.
Installing Options 908 and 913
Options 908 and 913 facilitate rack-mount installation for the 5071A.
The options differ as follows:
• The option 908 rack-mount kit provides the hardware necessary to mount the
5071A in a standard rack with flanges and no handles.
• The option 913 rack-mount kit provides the hardware necessary to mount the
5071A in a standard rack with flanges and handles.
WHEN INSTALLING THE 5071A IN AN INSTRUMENT RACK
WITH EITHER OPTION 908 OR 913, YOU MUST USE EITHER
AN INSTRUMENT SUPPORT TRAY OR SLIDE-MOUNT RAILS
ON THE INSIDE OF THE INSTRUMENT RACK. FAILURE TO
DO SO WILL RESULT IN RACK-MOUNT FLANGE FAILURE
AND SUBSEQUENT INSTRUMENT DAMAGE.
The rack-mounting contents and detailed instructions are provided
with each rack-mount kit. (Be sure to remove the plastic feet from the
instrument before installing in a rack.) If a kit was not ordered with
the instrument, it can be ordered through the nearest Symmetricom
Customer Service Center by using the following part numbers: part
number 5062-3977 for option 908, and part number 5062-4071 for
option 913.
A Rack Slide-Mount Kit is also available. The rack-slide lessens the
need to lift the 5071A and is required to support the instrument’s
weight when installed in a rack if an internal support tray is not
present. The available Rack Slide-Mount Kit part number is 1494-
0059.
