1. Important Safety Instructions
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This Manual contains instructions and warnings that must be followed during the installation and operation of the product described in this manual. Failure to
comply may invalidate the warranty and cause property damage or personal injury.
• Keep the enclosure in a controlled indoor environment, away from moisture, temperature extremes, flammable liquids and gasses, conductive
contaminants, dust and direct sunlight.
• Leave adequate space at the front and rear of the enclosure for proper ventilation. Do not block, cover or insert objects into the external ventilation
openings of the enclosure.
• The enclosure is extremely heavy. Use caution when handling the enclosure. Do not attempt to unpack, move or install it unassisted. Use a
mechanical device such as a forklift or pallet jack to move the enclosure in the shipping container.
• Do not place any object on the enclosure, especially containers of liquid, and do not attempt to stack the enclosures.
• Inspect the shipping container and the enclosure for shipping damage. Do not use the enclosure if it is damaged.
• Leave the enclosure in the shipping container until it has been moved as close to the final installation location as possible.
• Install the enclosure in a structurally sound area capable of handling the load, or on a level floor that is able to bear the weight of the enclosure, all
equipment that will be installed in the enclosure and any other enclosures and/or equipment that will be installed nearby.
• Use caution when cutting packing materials. The enclosure could be scratched, causing damage not covered by the warranty.
• Save all packing materials for later use. Repacking and shipping the enclosure without the original packing materials may cause product damage
that will void the warranty.
• Do not reship the enclosure with additional equipment unless the enclosure was shipped with a special shock pallet ("SP1" models only). The
combined weight of the enclosure and installed equipment must not exceed the load capacity of the pallet. Tripp Lite is not responsible for any
damage that occurs during reshipment.
• The casters are designed for minor position adjustments within the final installation area only. The casters are not designed for moving the
enclosure over longer distances.
• When rolling the enclosure on its casters, always push it from behind; never pull it toward you.
• A rolling enclosure can cause personal injury and property damage if not properly supervised. If rolling the enclosure down a ramp is required, use
extreme caution. Do not attempt to use ramps that have a slope steeper than 1:12.
• Use of this equipment in life support applications where failure of this equipment can reasonably be expected to cause the failure of the life support
equipment or to significantly affect its safety or effectiveness is not recommended. Do not use this equipment in the presence of a flammable
anesthetic mixture with air, oxygen or nitrous oxide.
