Unpacking
Every Australian Monitor product is tested and inspected before leaving our
factory and should arrive in perfect condition.
When opening the carton check for any noticeable damage to your Australian
Monitor product. Please notify your Australian Monitor reseller immediately
should any damage be discovered.
Should you ever need to re-ship the amplifier, always use the original
packaging carton and materials.
Mounting
The AMD4200P amplifier is one rack units high (1U) and will fit a standard
EIA 19 rack. A rack rear support bracket is supplied and must be must be
installed when rack mounting the amplifier. The rear support bracket should
be installed to the rack (rear rails) prior to mounting the amplifier. Failure to
mount or support the amplifier correctly may lead to chassis damage which is
not covered by warranty.
Typically amplifiers may be stacked directly on top of each other with no
need for spacing between units, unless installed in high ambient temperature
environments were a single rack unit space between amplifiers will assist
cooling further.
Cooling
The AMD4200P amplifier utilises fan forced air cooling, with air flowing from
right to left (viewed from the front).
Ensure adequate ventilation and/or heat extraction is provided when rack
mounting the amplifier. Installations with multiple AMD P series amplifiers or
other heat generating equipment with in the same rack will benefit from full
rack cooling, using conventional ducted cool-air fed through the rack base.
For smaller installations or were rack cooling is not possible, ensure the rack
provides free air flow above and below the rack. Also avoid the use of rear
doors on the equipment rack.
Please consider the thermal dissipation figures provided later in this manual
when installing your AMD4200P amplifier.
Grounding
In the interests of safety, ensure the amplifier is connected to a suitable
grounded mains outlet and NEVER disconnect the earth pin on the
AC power cord.
