ATE Core Configurations
Generation 2 System Center of Gravity
Consult the following figures to familiarize yourself with the typical centers of
gravity for ATE Core Configurations
Generation 2 configurations to
ensure stability when loading or moving the rack.
ATE-15U Center of Gravity
The following table
shows the minimum center of gravity for the Z-axis of the ATE-15U rack system. The rack is appropriately ballasted to
ensure stability as configured and shipped from NI to stated safety standards. If
hardware is integrated above this point, the integrator is responsible for
performing additional evaluation and/or testing to confirm compliance with the
stability requirements of IEC 61010-1 Clause 7.
Additional ballasting or securement means may be required.

The following table shows the minimum center of gravity for the
Z-axis of the ATE-38E rack system. The
rack is appropriately ballasted to ensure stability as configured and shipped from
