Specifications

1-1 Electrical Safety Guidelines

Warning: To avoid electrical shock, check the power

cords as follows:

Checking the Power Cords

zUse the exact type of power cords as required.

zBe sure to use power cord(s) that came with safety certifications.

zThe power cord(s) must be compliant with the AC voltage requirements in your

region.

zThe power cord plug cap must have an electrical current rating that is at least

125% of the electrical current rating of this product.

zThe power cord plug cap that plugs into the AC receptacle on the power

supply must be an IEC 320, sheet C13, type female connector.

zBe sure to disconnect the power supply before accessing the SC832/SC833

or its components.

zPlug the Power cord(s) into a socket that is properly grounded before

turning on the power.

Warning: Follow the guidelines below to avoid possible

damages to the system or injury to yourself:

General Electrical Safety Guidelines

zBe aware of the locations of the power switches on the chassis and in the

room, so you can disconnect the power supply if an accident occurs.

zTake extra precautionary measures when working with high voltage

components. It is not recommended to work alone.

zBefore removingor installingmainsystem components,be sue todisconnect

the power first. Turn off the system before you disconnect the PS.

Use only one hand when working with powered-on electrical equipment to

avoid possible electrical shock.

Chapter 1: Safety Information and Technical Specifications

Use rubber mats specifically designed as electrical insulators when working

with computer systems.

The power supply or power cord must include a grounding plug and must

be plugged into grounded outlets.

Motherboard Battery: CAUTION -Make sure not to install the onboard battery

upside down to avoid possible explosion. Make sure that the positive side

should be facing up on the motherboard. This battery must be replaced

only with the same or an equivalent type recommended by the manufac-

turer. Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer's instruc-

tions.

CD-ROM Laser: CAUTION - Do not open the enclosures of power supplies

or CD ROM to avoid injury.

1-2 General Safety Guidelines

Warning: Follow these rules to ensure general safety:

Keep the area around the SC832/SC833 clean and free of clutter.

To avoid injuries to the back, be sure to use your leg muscles, keep your

back straight, and bend your knees, when lifting the system.

Avoid wearing loose clothing to preventing it from coming into contact with

After removing the components or chassis covers from the system, place

them on a table for safeguard.

Be sure to remove any jewelry or metal objects before working on the

chassis to avoid short circuits should these objects come into contact

with power circuits.

After accessing the interior of the chassis, be sure to close the chassis

with chassis covers and secure the chassis to the racks with screws.

1-3 ESD Safety Guidelines

Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.

Keep all components and printed circuit boards (PCBs) in their antistatic

bags until ready for use.

Touch a grounded metal object before removing the board from the antistatic bag.

Do not let components or PCBs come into contact with your clothing, which may

retain a charge even if you are wearing a wrist strap.

Touch a grounded metal object before removing the board from the antistatic

bag.

Handle a board by its edges only; do not touch its components, peripheral

chips, memory modules or contacts.

When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.

Put the motherboard and peripherals back into their antistatic bags when not in

use.

For grounding purposes, make sure your computer chassis provides excel

lent conductivity between the power supply, the case, the mounting

fasteners and the motherboard.

Electric Static Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic com-

ponents. To prevent damage to your system board, it is

important to handle it very carefully. The following measures are

generally sufficient to protect your equipment from ESD.

1-4 Operation Safety Guidelines

Warning: For proper cooling, make sure to install all

chassis covers before turning on the system. If this rule is

not strictly followed, warranty may become void. Do not open

the casing of a power supply. Power supplies can only be

accessed and serviced by a qualified technician of the manufacturer.

Chapter 1: Safety Information and Technical Specifications

To avoid personal injury and property damage, please carefully

follow all the safety steps listed below:

Before accessing the chassis:

1. Turn off all peripheral devices connected to the SC832/SC833.

2. Press the power button to power off the system.

3. Unplug all power cords from the system or the wall outlets.

4. Disconnect all the cables and label the cables for easy identification.

5. Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge when

handling components.

Removing the chassis covers:

After completing the above steps, you can remove the covers and install

components/peripheral devices into the chassis as described in Chapter 2.

1. Unlock and remove the screws and fasteners to remove the cover or

components.

2. Save all the screws and fasteners for later use. (If necessary, label these

screws or fasteners for easy identification.)

3. Follow the instruction given in Chapter 3 to remove the chassis covers.

Reinstalling the chassis covers:

To maintain proper system cooling and airflow, do not operate the system

without installing all chassis covers back to the chassis. To reinstall the chassis

covers, please follow the steps listed below:

1. Make sure that all components and devices are securely fastened

on the chassis and there are no loose parts/screws inside the chassis.

2. Make sure that all cables are properly connected to the connectors and ports.

3. Use the original screws or fasteners to install the covers to the chassis.

4. Be sure to lock to the chassis or the system to prevent unauthorized access.

5. For proper cooling, enclose the chassis with covers before operating the

system.

1-8

SUPER SC832/SC833 Chassis User’s Guide

Before installing the chassis into a rack:

1. Make sure that the rack is securely anchored onto a unmovable surface or

structure before installing the chassis into the rack.

2. Unplug the power cord(s) of the rack before installing the chassis into the

rack.

3. Make sure that the system is adequately supported. Make sure that all the

components are securely fastened to the chassis toprevent components fall-

ing off from the chassis.

4. Be sure to install an AC Power Disconnect for the entire rack assembly and

this Power Disconnect must be clearly marked.

5. The rack assembly shall be properly grounded to avoid electric shock.

6. The rack assembly must provide sufficient airflow to the chassis for proper

cooling.
