5.3.1 ENVIRONMENTAL AND ADEQUATE VENTILATION CONSIDERATIONS
The SSPB contains a forced air cooling system, which prevents the internal components from
overheating and to optimise performance stability. The cooling system consists of three fans to
effectively distribute and remove the air from within the unit.
Prior to installing the SSPB, verify that:
1. Environmental conditions listed in TABLE 7 will be met.
2. A minimum clearance of 30-cm (12 inches) is necessary in front of the air intake openings on
the rear panel.
3. The grill of the fan intake and the exhaust openings of each AWTX are free of any obstructing
debris.

5.3.2 MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
5.3.2.1 Mounting Considerations
For a proper installation, the SSPB requires a standard 19-inch equipment rack and must be
secured by the front panel. Prior to installing the SSPB ensure that at least two individuals lift and
position the unit on to the equipment rack.
5.3.2.2 Installation Procedure
Install the SSPB into the 19-inch rack as follows:
CAUTION:
Obstructing objects or debris may reduce the efficiency of the cooling system
and significantly impact uponon the longevity of the SSPB.
