Electrical Considerations

When installing the SANbloc Series the following

electrical considerations must be applied.

Circuit Overloading Care should be taken to ensure that the current does not

exceed the rating of the power source circuitry. This

includes cabling, power distribution units, filters and any

other devices through which the main AC flows. The

electrical power rating of the enclosure is 100 - 240 VAC, 10

- 5 Amps (50/60 Hz), and must be added to the power

demands of any other electrical devices installed in the

equipment rack to arrive at a total power consumption

figure. In addition, surge currents must be catered for. Disk

drives may consume twice the amount of current at start-up

time as they do during steady state operation.
