Maintenance
Exterior Cleaning
Clean the exterior surfaces of the chassis with a dry lint-free cloth or a soft-bristle brush. If any
dirt remains, wipe with a cloth moistened in a mild soap solution. Remove any soap residue by
wiping with a cloth moistened with clear water. Do not use abrasive compounds on any part of
the chassis.
Caution
Avoid getting moisture inside the chassis during exterior cleaning,
especially through the top vents. Use just enough moisture to dampen the cloth.
Caution
Do
not
wash the front- or rear-panel connectors or switches. Cover these
components while cleaning the chassis.
Caution
Do
not
use harsh chemical cleaning agents; they may damage the chassis.
Avoid chemicals that contain benzene, toluene, xylene, acetone, or similar solvents.
Replacing a Modular Power Supply
This section describes how to remove and install a modular power supply for the PXIe-1066DC
chassis.
Caution
Do not use a power supply from another chassis. Doing so may damage
your chassis and the power supply.
Removal
The PXIe-1066DC power supply (part number 782106-01) is a replacement part for the
PXIe-1066DC chassis. Before attempting to replace a power supply, verify that there is adequate
clearance behind the chassis.
The power supplies for this chassis are redundant and hot swappable. If both power supplies are
installed and functional, you can remove either without disconnecting main DC power from the
system. If both power supplies are installed, and one has failed, you can remove the failed supply
without disconnecting main DC power from the system. If only one power supply is installed
and functional, you must remove main power from the system by disconnecting the power cable
from the DC power connector on the chassis front panel.
