Site preparation checklist
Installation checklist
To prepare the site...
❏Verify that the location for the system meets environmental
requirements–temperature, humidity, dust, and power–and that it
is within 5 feet of electrical outlets.
❏Verify that adequate anti-static products are available to keep the
equipment area free of static discharge.
❏Check that the cooling and ventilation system keeps the
surrounding temperature and relative humidity within the specified
ranges.
❏Provide a dedicated line for each system, connected directly to the
circuit breaker box.
❏Allow at least 6 inches of clearance behind the unit for cable
connections and ventilation and at least 0.5 inch on each side for
ventilation.
❏Provide a separate outlet with the proper voltage and current
ratings for all equipment.
❏Verify your system configuration.
