CAUTION
Riskofdamagesandinjurythroughelectricshock
➡Ensure that all devices are disconnected from the mains supply.
A free duct should be available for every module you have ordered.
Start on the left-hand side of the module rack. The modules must
later be installed in sequence from left to right.
➡Undo the four screws on the duct cover until they are loose in their
anchor points.
➡Then remove the cover.

WARNING
Riskofelectricshock
The module rack can already be live.
➡Do not reach into the open housing of the module rack.
➡Do not insert any objects.
➡To install modules always use the first empty duct from the left-hand
side of the module rack.
NOTICE
Damagefromelectrostacdischarge
➡Ensure that you are electrostacally discharged (earthed) before
you touch the module.
➡Wear suitable ESD shoes or an earth strap.

Duct Covers
For connuous operaon it is essenal that all ducts on the module rack
are closed. This is necessary to maintain air circulaon and therefore to
cool the modules.
➡Close all the ducts that are still open after you have installed the mod-
ules, using the duct covers provided for this purpose.
➡Ensure that the EMC seal on the duct cover is on the right-hand side
NOTICE
Damage through open ducts of the module carrier
Open ducts on the module rack can result in serious damage to
the modules in connuous operaon (parcularly a hard disk drive
failure).
➡Ensure that all open ducts are closed with duct covers.
