As it is in an open enclosure, it is important to follow all storage requirements to avoid damages and accidents. Insulating the drive is recommended to prevent moisture and condensation from penetrating the unit. Moisture and condensation can cause capacitor corrosion, resulting in malfunctions. The facility that 6KG1143040X9B1 will be operating in should maintain a constant temperature ranging from -10℃ to 50℃, or 14℉ to 122℉. Remove the ventilation covers on the unit if the facility’s temperature is expected to raise above 40℃, or 104℉.

Follow all safety and installation instructions to avoid damages, accidents, or fires. The heat sink can reach temperatures of 90℃, or 194℉, thus the unit must be installed in a debris free area as trapped debris poses a fire hazard. Refer to the instruction manual named on the nameplate for all installation and safety protocols.
