Symantec S450 Series
Safety and Compliance Guide
Switching or disconnecting devices should not be in the grounded circuit conductor between the DC source and the point of connection
of the grounding electrode conductor.
The power supply in this product contains no user-serviceable parts. Do not open the power supply. Hazardous voltage, current and energy
levels are present inside the power supply. Return to manufacturer for servicing.
When replacing a hot-plug power supply, unplug the power cord to the power supply being replaced before removing it from the server.
To avoid risk of electric shock, turn off the equipment and disconnect the power cord attached to the server before opening it.
Turn off all peripheral devices connected to this product.
Turn off the system by pressing the power button to off.
Disconnect the AC or DC power by unplugging all AC or DC power cords from the system or wall outlet.
Disconnect all cables that are connected to the system.
Retain all screws or other fasteners when removing access cover(s). Upon completion of accessing inside the product, refasten
access cover with original screws or fasteners.
CAUTION
If the server has been running, any installed processor(s) and heat sink(s) may be hot. Unless you are adding or removing
a hot-plug component, allow the system to cool before opening the covers to avoid the possibility of coming into contact with
hot component(s). During a hot-plug installation, be careful when removing or installing the hot-plug component(s) since some surfaces
will be hot.
CAUTION
To avoid injury, do not contact moving fan blades. If your system is supplied with a guard over the fan, do not operate the
system without the fan guard in place.
Rack Mount Warnings
The equipment rack must be anchored to an unmovable support to prevent it from tipping when a server or piece of equipment is extended
from it. The equipment rack must be installed according to the rack manufacturer’s instructions.
Install equipment in the rack from the bottom up, with the heaviest equipment at the bottom of the rack.
Extend only one piece of equipment from the rack at a time.
You are responsible for installing a main power disconnect for the entire rack unit. This main disconnect must be readily accessible, and
it must be labeled as controlling power to the entire unit, not just to the server(s).
To avoid risk of potential electric shock, a proper safety ground must be implemented for the rack and each piece of equipment installed
in it.
When rack-mounting the Symantec appliance, consider the following:
A. Elevated Operating Ambient—If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack
environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an
environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tmax) specified by the manufacturer.
B. Reduced Air Flow—Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the
equipment is not compromised.
C. Mechanical Loading—Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven
mechanical loading.
D. Circuit Overloading—Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that
overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate
ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
E. Reliable Earthing —Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply
connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (for example, use of power strips).
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
CAUTION
ESD can damage disk drives, boards, and other parts. We recommend that you perform all procedures at an ESD
workstation. If one is not available, provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap attached to chassis
ground—any unpainted metal surface—on your server when handling parts.
