Installation Precautions

The PZS ™ 140RA is designed for shelf or rack-mount installation. The
unit is equipped with rubber feet for shelf or table top installations.
When using racks, we recommend commercial grade, EIA electronic
equipment racks. Installing this unit in non-EIA racks or in other
configurations is not recommended. Failure to install this product in
the proper enclosure may void your warranty.
The PZS 140RA is forced-air cooled, and care should be taken not to
block the air intake or exhaust path located on the sides of the unit.
When installed in EIA racks, the PZS 140RA requires a minimum of 2"
clearance on each side of the equipment rack for proper cooling. In
normal conditions, the unit can be installed in adjacent rack spaces
without additional venting. However, it is recommended that common
sense be applied to large installations where multiple units are mounted
in a single rack. It is generally accepted that a ratio of one vent for
every two units is a good rule of thumb for adequate performance. In
installations where adverse conditions exist, and room temperatures are
likely to rise, additional vents should be installed.
Several associated products may be used to complete a working system
using the PZS 140RA. This manual frequently makes reference to these
products, but does not provide specific configuration or installation
information on them. Please refer to the manuals on these products for
information. Every product must be properly installed for the PZS
140RA to operate in accordance with its published specification.

P A G E 8 P Z S ™ -140RA User Manual
The PZS 140RA can be installed
into any EIA rack with an internal
depth clearance of 18" or more.
This will allow plenty of space for
the unit and its associated wiring
harness at the rear of the rack.
Infrastructure is critical for imple-
menting reliable sound systems.
It is important that your conduit
systems, wire plants and connec-
tor complement are properly
designed and installed or your sys-
tem may perform at inferior levels.
