Clearance specifications for the library

Minimum clearances required will depend on the Diamondback configuration.

You need a minimum of 762 mm (30in) clearance on the front and back of each frame. Ensure that service clearance space does not overlap into high-traffic walkways where service activity might impede pedestrian traffic.

Figure 1 shows the clearance specifications for the front, back and side for Climate-Controlled Diamondback, and Diamondback without an AC.

Note: Best practice is to orient the back of the library toward a hot aisle.
