CHAPTER

1

Before Installation

This section provides information on what should be considered when choosing a

location for a Netra ft 1800 system.

Note – This equipment is only intended for installation in a Restricted Access

Location as defined by UL1950, 3rd Edition, and EN60950: 1992 / A11: 1997.

Electrical Supply Considerations

Before you install the system, verify that the correct power supply is available. Refer

to “DC Source Site Requirements” on page 44 for further information.

Environmental Considerations

The system can be installed in an environment with the following specific parameter

ranges:

■ Ambient temperature

■ Operating: 0 to 40 degrees Celsius (short term operation up to a temperature of

50 degrees Celsius is possible; however, the operation of removable media

devices cannot be guaranteed.)

■ Storage: –40 to 70 degrees Celsius

2 Netra ft 1800 Installation Guide • February 1999

■ Relative humidity

■ Operating: 5 to 85% noncondensing

1

■ Storage: 10 to 90% noncondensing

1

■ Elevation

■ Operating: 0 to 3000 meters

■ Storage: 0 to 12000 meters

Dimensions

■ Height: 1466.85 mm (57.75 inches) 33U NOM

■ Width: 437.60 mm (17.22 inches)

■ Depth: 392.8 mm (15.4 inches)

■ Weight: Maximum 190.5 kg (420 lb) (excluding rack or AC converter items)

■ Maximum rate of heat release for fully configured system: 3000W

(10,200 Btu/hour)

■ GR 63 CORE heat release calculation result: 425.4 W per square foot

[3000 W / (3.25 ft x 2.17 ft)] (4579 W per square meter).

These dimensions are for the product without rack-mount flange adapters; the

overall width of the flanges varies according to the equipment mounting

requirements.

The depth given does not include any I/O or power connectors. The power

connectors add 50 mm (2 inches) to the depth.

Airflow Consideration when Mounting in the

Equipment Frame

The Netra ft 1800 system has been designed to function while mounted in a natural

convection airflow, but to meet the declared environmental specification the

following rules apply. Refer to

FIGURE 1-1 on page 1-4 and FIGURE 1-2 on page 1-5.

1. Adequate airflow through the equipment frame must be ensured. The

Netra ft 1800 system utilizes internal fans that can achieve a maximum airflow of

840 cfm in free air.

2. The inlet air must enter at the bottom of the Netra ft 1800 cabinet and in front of

the Power Supply Units (PSUs); the airflow exhausts vertically from the top of the

cabinet.

1. Subject to a maximum absolute humidity of0.024Kg of water per Kg of dryair.

Chapter 1 Before Installation 3

3. A minimum of 2U (88.9 mm/3.5 inches) clearance must be allowed at both top

and bottom of the Netra ft 1800 cabinet when mounted to allow adequate inlet

and exhaust ventilation.

4. The Netra ft 1800 system must not be mounted above any heat-generating sources

within the same frame unless a heat deflector is used to provide fresh inlet air at

ambient temperature.

5. To maintain adequate airflow, replace the environmental filters every six months

(contact your local support organization for further information). The

environmental filter replacement kit (X-Option No.X6952A) contains six PSU

filters and three base filters.

Mechanical Considerations when Mounting in the

Equipment Frame

Caution – Mechanical assistance is required if installing a loaded chassis.

If you intend not to use a lifting device for installation, all modules other than the

motherboards must be removed from the system prior to lifting. The empty chassis

weighs approximately 49 kg (108 lb), or 68 kg (150 lb) with the motherboards, plus

the adaptors. The weight of any removable module depends on its configuration.

Weight warning labels are for guidance only.

See “Removing and Installing Modules” on page 23 for information about adding

modules to the motherboard.

The Netra ft 1800 chassis has been designed to accommodate most mounting

configurations. Adaptor flanges to suit 19-inch, 23-inch, 24-inch and 600-mm (ETSI)

rack sizes are available as required.

The Netra ft 1800 system is shipped with a plinth, which protects the bottom of the

chassis during transit and handling, and also ensures that the correct airflow inlet

plenum is provided during installation. The plinth must be removed once the

Netra ft 1800 is installed in a rack, then stored in a safe place.

The Netra ft 1800 chassis must be mounted using screws suitable for the equipment

frame. The screws should be M5, M6 or 10-32 UNF. All screws must be fitted. The

recommended tightening torque value for either M5 or 10-32 UNF recess head

screws is 3.8 Nm (2.8 lbf/ft), and that for M6 screws is 6 Nm (4.4 lbf/ft).

Mounting Requirements

The Netra ft 1800 is available with the following removable mounting flanges:

■ 19 inch EIA pattern

■ 23 inch EIA pattern

■ 24 inch EIA pattern

■ 600 mm IEC917 (ETSI) pattern

Any of these flanges can be fitted in the following positions:

■ Flush with the front of the system

■ 65 mm (2.56 inches) from front of system

■ 196.1 mm (7.72 inches) from front of system

The second and third positions are intended for use with 5-inch web open frames

(relay racks).
