KWS8000 Installation

1–3

Rack mounting Safety Precautions.

Ensure that the leveling jacks on the bottom of the rack are fully extended

to the floor with the full weight of the rack resting on them.

In a single rack installation, stabilizers should be attached to the rack.
In multiple rack installations, the racks should be coupled together.
Always make sure the rack is stable before extending a component from

the rack.

You should extend only one component at a time - extending two or more

simultaneously may cause the rack to become unstable.

Before you install the rails, determine the placement of each component in

the rack.

Install the heaviest components on the bottom of the rack first, and then

work up.

Always keep the rack’s trays and board’s closed when not servicing, to

maintain proper cooling.

The rack ambient temperature may rise beyond room ambient

temperature in a multi unit assembly, measures must be taken to ensure

the KWS8000 ambient temperature does not exceed the maximum

operating ambient temperature of 40 °Celsius.

To ensure ventilation always leave 2/3 U between the KWS8000 units any

other units mounted in the rack.

Always ensure proper rack earthing.
