1. SAFETY WARNINGS
This manual contains important instructions that you should follow during installation and main-
tenance of the REC Series Enclosure. Please read all instructions before operating the equip-
ment and save this manual for future reference.
1. WARNING! REC Series enclosure components can be very heavy. It is recommended that
several people take part in the unpacking process. When lifting heavy components or
electronic equipment, ensure that all safety regulations are observed.
2. WARNING! The REC Series enclosure is designed to support a Static Load of 1100kg or a
Dynamic Combined Load of 200kg. Dynamic Combined Load is the combined weight of the
rack and installed equipment. The fitted casters are for transit only and are not intended to
be used to move the rack when it is configured with equipment where the weight of the rack
and equipment total over 200kg. The levelling feet (refer to Section 5 of this manual) must
be in contact with the floor and supporting the rack before the rack is configured with
equipment.
3. WARNING! The enclosure must be stabilized before installing any roll-out type accessory,
component or electronic device. Failure to stabilize prior to installing equipment may cause
the enclosure to tip over.
4. WARNING! First, load the heaviest electronic devices and accessories into the bottom of
the enclosure to prevent the enclosure from becoming top-heavy.
5. WARNING! Never extend more than one roll-out type electronic device or accessory from a
stabilized enclosure at a time. Do not sit, stand, or climb on any extended roll-out type
electronic device or accessory. Never extend a roll-out type electronic device or accessory
component from an enclosure rack that is supported by casters. Doing so may cause a
stabilized enclosure rack to tip over.
6. WARNING! Ensure that the floor has a structural load capacity that will safety bear the
weight of the REC Series enclosure and installed components.
7. WARNING! There must be an uninterruptable safety earth ground from the main power
source to the Power Distribution Unit’s (PDU) power cord set. Whenever it is likely that
ground has been impaired, disconnect the PDU’s power cord until the ground has been
restored.
8. WARNING! High leakage current may be present. Grounding connection essential before
connecting supply.
9. WARNING! Rack is intended to be used with equipment complying with IEC 60950. Use
with non-compliant equipment may result in electrical hazard.
10. WARNING! A grounding kit is supplied with REC Series enclosures. The installer is
responsible for grounding the enclosure to the building electrical system. Additional
equipment can be electronically bonded to the rack's frame using additional grounding
points.

PROCEDURE MUST BE IMPLEMENTED AND THE RACK MUST REMAIN STATIC. IF
THE RACK IS TO BE RELOCATED THEN EQUIPMENT MUST BE REMOVED BEFORE
