5.1 Installation
Rack Mounting of Systems
Observe the following precautions for rack stability and safety. Also refer to the rack
installation documentation(s) provided by rack manufacturer. Systems are considered to
be components in a rack. Thus, "component" refers to any system as well as to various
peripherals, products or supporting hardware. Please adhere to the following instructions
when installing the RPS system:
After installing components in a rack, never pull more than one component out of
the rack on its slide assemblies at one time. The weight of more than one extended
component could cause the rack to tip over and may result in serious injury.
Components should be installed in a rack by trained service technicians.
Do not move racks by yourself. Due to the height and weight of the rack, a
minimum of two people should accomplish this task.
Always load the rack from the bottom up, and load the heaviest item in the rack
first.
Make sure that the rack is level and stable before extending a component from the
rack.
Do not overload the AC supply branch circuit that provides power to the rack.
The total rack load should not exceed 80 percent of the branch circuit rating.
Ensure that proper airflow is provided to components in the rack.
Do not step on or stand on any component when servicing other components in a
rack.
The system chassis must be positively grounded to the rack cabinet frame. Do not
attempt to connect power to the system until grounding cables are connected.
Completed power and safety ground wiring must be inspected by a qualified
electrical inspector. An energy hazard will exist if the safety ground cable is
omitted or disconnected.
