CIX40 Installation
Site Requirements
1-8 Strata CIX40 Installation & Maintenance 5/06
Site Requirements
This section defines the installation site requirements necessary to ensure a proper operating
environment for the CIX40. Also included are grounding requirements.
Input Power
The system requires an input power source of 115VAC ± 10VAC, 50/60 Hz, 1.5 amps. The AC
outlet is recommended to be dedicated and unswitched. (See “AC Power and Grounding
Requirements” on page 1-10.)
A dedicated AC power circuit eliminates interference from branch circuit motor noise or the like,
and to prevent accidental power-off. To avoid accidental power turn-off, Toshiba recommends that
you do not use an On/Off wall switch on this dedicated AC circuit.
For the Strata CIX40, a reserve power source (HPFB-6) may be connected to the system to serve
as a power failure backup (See Step 9 on page 1-29).
Clearance and Location
The minimum clearance requirements for the
Strata CIX40 Base cabinet is shown in
Figure 1-6. Refer to Figure 1-10 on page 1-13 for
CIX40 cabinet mounting instructions.
Consider the following conditions when selecting
a location for the cabinet:
The location must be:
• Dry and clean
• Well ventilated
• Well illuminated
• Easily accessible
The location must not be:
• Subject to extreme heat or cold
• Subject to corrosive fumes, dust, or other
airborne contaminants
• Subject to excessive vibration
• Next to television, radio, office automation, or
high frequency equipment
If reserve battery power (HPFB-6) is to be
installed for the Strata CIX40, the batteries will
require a well-ventilated location close to the
CHSU40A.
