3.1 General Installation Guidelines
3.1.1 Unpacking
Consider the following when unpacking and storing the system:
•
Leave the system packed until it is needed for immediate installation.
•
After unpacking the system, save and store the packaging material in case
the system must be returned.
If the packaging is damaged and possible system damage is present, report to
the shipper and analyze the damage.
3.1.2 Ensuring Proper Airflow
•
Maintain ambient airflow to ensure normal operation. If the airflow is blocked
or restricted, or if the intake air is too warm, an over temperature condition
can occur.
•
Ensure that cables from other equipment do not obstruct the airflow through
the systems.
•
Use filler panels to cover all empty chassis slots. The filler panel should
include an airflow baffle that extends to backplane. The filler panel prevents
fan air from escaping out of the front of an open slot.
Caution!
When opening the shipping carton, use caution to avoid damaging the system.
Filler Panels and Air Baffles
Air baffles and front panels with air baffles are available in the Schroff catalogue
or at www.schroff.biz
