Installation Guidelines
- Mount the unit vertically on a flat, non-flammable backplate to facilitate correct convective airflow.
- Maintain specified physical clearance zones above, below, and to the sides of the chassis for heat dissipation.
- Ensure all input power connections are exclusively terminated at R/L1, S/L2, and T/L3 to prevent catastrophic hardware damage.
- Apply correct grounding techniques and utilize shielded power and control cabling to suppress electromagnetic interference (EMI).
