Site Preparation

You must follow all safety, storage, and vehicle requirements and instructions to properly set up, configure, and use the Data Record System.

Visit ni.com/manuals to review the safety information that applies to your system:
  • PXIe-1092DC Safety, Environmental, and Regulatory Information
  • PXIe-1095DC Safety, Environmental, and Regulatory Information

Ensure the facility meets the following environmental and physical requirements before the Data Record System arrives.

Ventilation Clearances

The following clearances are required to ensure proper airflow to the Data Record System. Clearances are measured from the chassis exterior. Ensure obstructions do not violate the following clearance requirements:
  • Top and sides: 44.45 mm (1.75 in.)
  • Back: 101.60 mm (4.00 in.)
Caution You must follow the Data Record System power dissipation and ventilation requirements to avoid thermal hazards.
Caution ATTENTION Vous devez suivre les exigences de ventilation et de dissipation de puissance du Data Record System pour éviter tout risque thermique.
