Safety Instructions¶
General¶
Please read these safety instructions carefully and retain them for future reference.
This equipment is to be installed for operation in an environment with maximum ambient temperature below 40°C.
The openings on the enclosure are for air convection to protect the equipment from overheating. DO NOT COVER THE OPENINGS.
Carefully mount the equipment into the rack, in such manner, that it won’t be hazardous due to uneven mechanical loading. Place this equipment on a stable surface when install. A drop or fall could cause injury.
Make sure the voltage of the power source is within the specification on the label when connecting the equipment to the power outlet. The current load and output power of loads shall be within the specification.
This equipment must be connected to reliable grounding before using. Pay special attention to power supplied other than direct connections, e.g. using of power strips.
Safety Guidelines¶
Follow these guidelines to ensure general safety:
Keep the chassis area clear and dust-free during and after installation.
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry that could get caught in the chassis. Fasten your tie or scarf and roll up your sleeves.
Wear safety glasses if you are working under any conditions that might be hazardous to your eyes.
Do not perform any action that creates a potential hazard to people or makes the equipment unsafe.
Disconnect all power by turning off the power and unplugging the power cord before installing or removing a chassis or working near power supplies
Do not work alone if potentially hazardous conditions exist.
Never assume that power is disconnected from a circuit; always check the circuit.
Have the equipment checked by service personnel if:
The power cord or plug is damaged.
Liquid has penetrated the equipment.
The equipment has been exposed to moisture in a condensation environment.
The equipment does not function properly, or you cannot get it to work by following the user manual.
The equipment has been dropped and damaged.
Lithium Battery Caution¶
There is risk of explosion if the battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.
Installation should be conducted only by a trained electrician or only by an electrically trained person who knows all installation procedures and device specifications which are to be applied.
Do not carry the handle of power supplies when moving to another place.
Please conform to your local laws and regulations regarding safe disposal of lithium battery.
Disposal of a battery into fire or a hot oven, or mechanically crushing or cutting of a battery can result in an explosion.
Leaving a battery in an extremely high temperature environment can result in an explosion or the leakage of flammable liquid or gas.
A battery subjected to extremely low air pressure may result in an explosion or the leakage of flammable liquid or gas.
Operating Safety¶
Electrical equipment generates heat. Ambient air temperature may not be adequate to cool equipment to acceptable operating temperatures without adequate circulation. Be sure that the room in which you choose to operate your system has adequate air circulation.
Ensure that the chassis cover is secure. The chassis design allows cooling air to circulate effectively. An open chassis permits air leaks, which may interrupt and redirect the flow of cooling air from internal components.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage equipment and impair electrical circuitry. ESD damage occurs when electronic components are improperly handled and can result in complete or intermittent failures. Be sure to follow ESD-prevention procedures when removing and replacing components to avoid these problems.
Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensuring that it makes good skin contact. If no wrist strap is available, ground yourself by touching the metal part of the chassis.
Periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap, which should be between 1 and 10 megohms (MΩ).
Mounting Installation Precautions¶
The following should be put into consideration for rack-mount or similar mounting installations:
Do not install and/or operate this unit in any place that flammable objects are stored or used in.
The installation of this product must be performed by trained specialists; otherwise, a non-specialist might create the risk of the system’s falling to the ground or other damages.
Elevated Operating Ambient - 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 ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.
Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of airflow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
Reliable Grounding - Reliable grounding of rack mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).
Suitable for installation in Information Technology Rooms in accordance with Article 645 of the National Electrical Code and NFPA 75.
Equipment is intended for installation in Restricted Access Location / Les matériels sont destinés à être installés dans des EMPLACEMENTS À ACCÈS RESTREINT.
CAUTION: Stability hazard - The rack may tip over causing serious personal injury Before extending the rack to the installation position, read the installation instructions. Do not put any load on the slide-rail mounted equipment in the installation position. Do not leave the slide-rail mounted equipment in the installation position.
DANDER: d’instabilité - Le rack peut basculer et provoquer des blessures corporelles graves Avant d’étendre le rack en position d’installation, lire les instructions d’installation. Ne pas charger l’équipement monté sur rail de glissière en position d’installation. Ne pas laisser l’équipement monté sur rail de glissière en position d’installation.
Electrical Safety Instructions¶
Before turning on the device, ground the grounding cable of the equipment. Proper grounding (grounding) is very important to protect the equipment against the harmful effects of external noise and to reduce the risk of electrocution in the event of a lightning strike. To uninstall the equipment, disconnect the ground wire after turning off the power. A ground wire is required and the part connecting the conductor must be greater than 4 mm2 or 10 AWG.
This equipment must be grounded. The power cord for product should be connected to a socket-outlet with earthing connection.
Suitable for installation in Information Technology Rooms in accordance with Article 645 of the National Electrical Code and NFPA 75.
The machine can only be used in a restricted access location and has installation instructions by a skilled person.
