The Quantum ATL P7000 is an automated storage and retrieval library

consisting of up to 16 tape drives and up to 679 digital linear tape

(DLT™) cartridges see figure 1.

4 Selecting an Installation Location

Selecting an Installation Location 0

When choosing an installation site for the ATL P7000, consider the

following requirements:

• Floor space

• Floor clearance

• Floor strength and inclination

• Power and grounding

• Environmental conditions

These requirements are also described in the Quantum ATL P4000 and

ATL P7000 Tape Libraries User’s Guide.

Floor Space 0Figure 2 shows the minimum floor space required by the ATL P7000.

Figure 2 Floor Space

Requirements

Floor Clearance 0The library has a floor clearance of 0.75 inch (19 mm). Place the library

on a level, uncarpeted floor free of defects.

Selecting an Installation Location 5

Floor Strength and

Inclination 0

The floor at the installation site must be rated at 250 lb/ft2

(1221 kg/m2). This is sufficient to support a fully loaded ATL P7000

library.

The floor must be level to within 0.25 inch (6.4 mm) over a 6-foot-by-6-

foot (1.83-meter-by-1.83-meter) area.

Power and

Grounding 0

For the United States and Canada, one or two UL/CSA certified power

cords are furnished. Each uses a 14/3 SJT cord, a 5-20P plug, and an

IEC-C320 C19 female connector (see figure 3).

Figure 3 Power Supply

Cord

The library is rated 100-240V~, 50-60Hz, 16A-8A, 1600W.

The library power requirements may require modification of the

facilities existing power capabilities by a qualified electrician. The

required wall outlet for the United States and Canada is rated at 125V

20A (see figure 4).

Figure 4 Wall Outlet

The dedicated wall outlet and a 20 amp circuit breaker must provide

power to the ATL P7000 only. Outside North America, replace the

supplied power cord with a harmonized 3 x 1.5 mm2power cord that

is approved by the country where used, and install the appropriate

wall outlet. More information on the electrical requirements is

provided in the ATL P7000 Pre-Installation Site Survey Instructions.

Caution: The ATL P7000 must be connected to a grounded

electrical outlet.

6 Preparing for the Installation

Environmental

Conditions 0

The installation site must have the following environmental

conditions:

• Humidity: 20%-80% non-condensing

• Temperature: 15°C-32°C (59°F-90°F)

• Altitude: sea level to 10,000 feet

These environmental conditions apply when the library is in

operation.

Preparing for the Installation 0

Before you begin the installation procedure in this section, make the

following preparations as described in this section:

• Providing necessary tools and equipment for installation

• Taking ESD precautions

Providing Necessary

Tools and Equipment 0

Provide the following tools for unpacking the library:

•Scissors

• Ratchet with 15/16 inch socket (or 15/16 inch open-end wrench)

Provide the following tools for removing the shipping restraints:

• #2 Phillips® screwdriver

•Tiewrap

Provide the following tools for leveling the library:

• 3/4-inch open-end wrench

• Carpenter’s level

Taking ESD

Precautions 0

Some components within the ATL P7000 contain static-sensitive parts.

To avoid damaging these parts while performing installation

procedures, always observe the following precautions:

• Keep the library turned off during all installation procedures.

Note: For additional library specifications (including

environmental requirements during shipping and storage),

see appendix A in the Quantum ATL P4000 and ATL P7000

Tape Libraries User’s Guide.

Unpacking the Library 7

• Keep the library power cord plugged into a grounded power

outlet except when working with AC electrical components.

• Avoid contact with power supplies, EMI filters, and AC electrical

components while the library is connected to a power outlet.

• Use an antistatic wrist strap.

• Keep static-sensitive parts in their original shipping containers

until ready for installation.

• Do not place static-sensitive parts on a metal surface. Place them

inside their protective shipping bag or on an antistatic mat.

• Avoid touching connectors and other components.

Unpacking the Library 0

This section explains how to unpack the library and move it to its final

installation location. The ATL P7000 is shipped in packing materials

designed to protect it from damage during transit. By following these

instructions, you help ensure that the library will continue to be

safeguarded after it arrives at the installation site.

The following are the major steps in this procedure:

• Receiving the library

• Unboxing the library

• Positioning the library

• Unpacking the library

• Leveling the library

Receiving the Library 0Unpack the library as close to the installation site as possible. Inspect

the shipping pallet and carton for damage that may have occurred

during shipment. Report any damage to the shipper.

Note: Dry climates and cold-weather heating environments have

lower relative humidity and are more likely to produce static

electricity.

Caution: The ATL P7000 with 16 DLT7000 tape drives weighs

approximately 1444 pounds (656 kg). Use at least two

people to move and install the library.

8 Unpacking the Library

Unboxing the Library 0To unbox the library:

1Choose the unloading side. The ATL P7000 may be unloaded from

either the right or left side of the pallet.

2Verify the minimum floor space requirements (see figure 5).

Space Requirements—

Uncrating Site

3Cut the two steel bands that secure the library and packing

material to the pallet (see figure 6).

Note: Uncrating the library requires a minimum of 3 feet

(91 cm) on all sides. For the side being used for the ramp,

uncrating the library requires an additional 7 feet (2.13

m) for a total of 10 feet (3.05 m) on that side. Figure 5

shows the minimum floor space required by the ATL

P7000 at its uncrating site. The minimum height required

for unpacking the ATL P7000 is 85 inches (2.16 meters).

Caution: The steel bands are under tension and will snap

away when cut.
