ONLY TRAINED AND QUALIFIED PERSONNEL (SUCH AS A QUALIFIED/LICENSED

ELECTRICIAN) SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO INSTALL OR REPLACE THIS EQUIPMENT.

CHECK NATIONAL AND LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES, REGULATIONS AND DIRECTIVES

BEFORE WIRING.

A VM600Mk2/VM600 RACK MUST BE DIRECTLY AND PERMANENTLY CONNECTED TO

LIVE EARTH (PE), KNOWN AS AN EQUIPMENT GROUNDING CONDUCTOR IN THE US

NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE, USING THE EARTH CONDUCTOR OF THE EXTERNAL

MAINS POWER SUPPLY LEAD (POWER CORD), IN ORDER TO HELP PREVENT THE RISK

OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.

SELECT CABLE WIRE SIZES AND CONNECTORS (CURRENT-CARRYING CAPACITY),

INCLUDING THE EXTERNAL MAINS POWER SUPPLY LEAD (POWER CORD), TO MEET THE

REQUIREMENTS OF THE APPLICATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE APPLICABLE

NATIONAL AND LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES.

CHECKS TO ENSURE ELECTRICAL SAFETY SHOULD BE CARRIED OUT BY A COMPETENT

PERSON.

DEFLECTION PLATES (BARRIERS) CAN BE INSTALLED ABOVE AND BELOW A

VM600Mk2/VM600 RACK IN ORDER TO HELP REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRICAL

SHOCK AND IN THE CASE OF THE BARRIER INSTALLED BELOW THE RACK, IN ORDER TO

HELP PREVENT THE SPREAD OF FIRE TOO.

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAN RESULT IN DEATH, SERIOUS INJURY,

AND/OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE

Hazardous voltages and the risk of electric shock 

Hot surfaces and the risk of burning 

Heavy objects and the risk of injury

HAZARDOUS VOLTAGES EXIST WITHIN A VM600Mk2/VM600 RACK.

WHEN A MODULE/CARD, PANEL OR POWER SUPPLY IS REMOVED FROM A

VM600Mk2/VM600 RACK, THE RACK BACKPLANE – CONTAINING HAZARDOUS

VOLTAGES – IS EXPOSED AND THERE IS THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, AS INDICATED

BY THE USE OF THE FOLLOWING WARNING LABEL ON THE EQUIPMENT:

REGARD ANY EXPOSED COMPONENT, CONNECTOR OR PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD (PCB)

AS A POSSIBLE SHOCK HAZARD AND DO NOT TOUCH WHEN ENERGISED.

FOR SAFETY REASONS, ANY VM600Mk2/VM600 RACK SLOT (MODULE POSITION) NOT

POPULATED BY A MODULE MUST BE COVERED BY A BLANK PANEL.

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAN RESULT IN DEATH, SERIOUS INJURY,

AND/OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE.

HOT SURFACES CAN EXIST WITHIN AND ON A VM600Mk2/VM600 RACK.

DEPENDING ON THE AMBIENT OPERATING TEMPERATURE AND POWER CONSUMPTION,

AND THE INSTALLATION AND COOLING OF A VM600Mk2/VM600 RACK, THE TOP OF

THE RACK CAN BECOME HOT TO TOUCH AND THERE IS THE RISK OF BURNING WHEN

HANDLING THE RACK, AS INDICATED BY THE USE OF THE FOLLOWING WARNING LABEL

ON THE EQUIPMENT:

REGARD THE TOP OF A VM600Mk2/VM600 RACK AS A HOT SURFACE AND DO NOT

TOUCH UNLESS COOL.

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAN RESULT IN INJURY.

A FULLY POPULATED VM600Mk2/VM600 SYSTEM RACK (ABE04X) WITH RPS6U

RACK POWER SUPPLIES AND MODULES INSTALLED IS A HEAVY OBJECT.

DEPENDING ON THE NUMBER OF RPS6U RACK POWER SUPPLIES AND MODULES

INSTALLED, A VM600Mk2/VM600 SYSTEM RACK CAN BE TOO HEAVY TO HANDLE

MANUALLY BY ONE PERSON AND THERE IS THE RISK OF INJURY DURING INSTALLATION

OR REMOVAL. ACCORDINGLY, A FULLY POPULATED VM600Mk2/VM600 SYSTEM

RACK SHOULD BE CONSIDERED AS A HEAVY OBJECT THAT REQUIRES TWO PEOPLE TO

LIFT, LOWER OR OTHERWISE HANDLE MANUALLY.

ALTERNATIVELY, THE RPS6U RACK POWER SUPPLIES (THE HEAVIEST SYSTEM

COMPONENTS AND EASILY REMOVABLE), AND THEN THE MODULES AS NECESSARY,
