Minimum clearances
If you install the IE Switch X-300EEC in enclosures without forced ventilation or cooling,
minimum clearances must be maintained to neighboring devices or the wall of the enclosure.
By keeping to the minimum clearances, there is then an adequate stream of air for heat
dissipation during operation. Keep to the following minimum clearances to neighboring
devices.
Table 5- 1 Minimum clearances when installing the X-300EEC
Minimum clearance to devices below the switch 100 mm
Minimum clearance to devices above the switch 100 mm
Minimum clearance at the sides 20 mm
