2)
After all screws have been inserted, hand tightened them using a PH2 screw driver
to ensure secure installation.
3.
Ensure the rack is adequate for the unit (weight) and the application.
4.
Use the mounting hardware recommended by the rack manufacturer to mount the unit in
the rack. Four mounting screws, compatible with the rack design, must be used and
hand tightened to ensure secure installation
5.
While Advantech does not supply support brackets, slide rails are available for separate
order. Please refer to
6.
Choose a mounting location where all four mounting holes line up with those of the
mounting bars of the 19-inch cabinet.
7.
Choose a mounting location that does not block any air inlet and air outlet areas of the
unit, It is also recommended to factor in heat generated by adjacent equipment and to
avoid exposure to direct sunlight when mounting the unit. If installed in a closed or multi-
unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be
greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the
equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum recommended ambient
temperature per
section
8.
Route cables away from power lines, fluorescent lighting fixtures and sources of noise.
Make sure that cables do not block air inlet and outlet areas.
