INSTALLATION
Vacuum tube equipment can get very hot, so thought and care should be taken
in how it is installed. The 286A will fit in a 19” equipment rack, taking 2 units of
space (2U). The chassis for the 286A has vents punched out of the top and sides
for heat to escape. It is good practice to leave 1U of space above the unit for bet-
ter ventilation.
The Locomotive 286A has its tubes and transformers installed on the outside of
the unit. Route audio and power cords in a direction where they would be least
likely to touch these components.
