Mounting Orientation Fan Mounting (IPC-5 only)
The IPC-5 can be optionally equipped with a standard 80 mm or 40
mm case fan, to get up to 40% more continuous power output. If
you intend to use a fan follow, these guidelines:
Use non-conductive hardware to secure fan to case,
such as rubber screws, rubber fan “push pins” or similar
by manufacturers such as Nexus and Lamptron.
Use “open corner” (open frame) style fans for easier
mounting.
Select a fan with medium to high CFM (cubic feet per
minute) rating.
Install fans to exhaust air (draw air out) from case.
Mount IPC in one of the orientations shown below. Vertical
mounting improves air flow and is preferable.
Allow minimum 2” clearance above IPC, and at least 1” at
sides and bottom.
Do not mount IPC where ambient temperature exceeds
40ºC.
