SPECIAL AMPLIFIER CONSIDERATIONS FOR RACK MOUNTING
OR CUSTOM CABINET INSTALLATIONS
Fathom IWSv2 amplifiers are designed to be "built-in" friendly. All typically
needed controls are located on the front panel. A Fathom IWSv2 amp can be
easily integrated into an equipment rack or custom cabinetry by following a few
simple guidelines.
1.
Allow adequate clear space around the Fathom IWSv2 amp's side-mounted
heatsinks for adequate cooling. Also allow space behind the amp for
connector clearance.
2.
The Fathom IWSv2 amp ships ready to be mounted in a standard equipment
rack.
3.
The Fathom IWSv2 amplifier also includes table-top hardware. Special front-
panel end covers that replace the rack ears and rubber feet are included with
the IWSv2 amp. To use the amp on a table top, simply remove the hex screws
that attach the rack ears and then install the covers. The rubber feet screw
into threaded holes in the bottom of the amplifier case.
WARNING: The rubber feet attach using M6-1.0 x 10mm screws. If
lost or misplaced, only replace with the same type and length of screws.
Using longer screws will cause damage to the internal circuit board.
4.
While the Fathom IWSv2 amp generally runs only warm during spirited
operation, we do recommend that adequate heat vents are included in any
custom cabinet which encloses the Fathom IWSv2 amp. A pair of 3 inch (7.5
cm) diameter vents near the bottom of the cabinet and near the top of the
cabinet, will allow cool air to circulate over the heatsinks of your Fathom
IWSv2 amp, keeping it cool and happy.
