You must maintain adequate clearance between the chassis and surrounding equipment, heat
generating devices, and air flow blockages to ensure proper cooling. Minimum cooling
clearances are shown in the following figure. For rack mount applications, adequate forced air
ventilation is required. For benchtop or rack mount applications, additional cooling clearances
may be required for optimal air flow and reduced hot air recirculation to the air inlet fans.
