You can also obtain the TBA0ST2 tool kit from your nearest Tait Dealer or 
Customer Service Organisation.  It contains the basic tools needed to install, 
tune and service the TB8100 BSS.
5.7
Ventilation
Always ensure there is adequate ventilation around the TB8100 BSS.   Do 
not
 operate it in a sealed cabinet.  You must keep the ambient temperature 
within the specified range, and we strongly recommended that you ensure 
that the cooling airflow is not restricted.
Important
The cooling fans are mounted on the front panel and will 
only operate when the panel is fitted correctly to the front 
of the subrack.  To ensure adequate airflow through the 
BSS, do not operate it for more than a few minutes with the 
front panel removed (e.g. for servicing purposes).  
Ambient Air Temperature Sensor
The ambient air temperature reading 
for the TB8100 BSS is provided by 
the ambient air temperature sensor 
PCB 
b
 fitted to the PA control PCB. 
The sensor PCB is inserted through 
slots in the control PCB and heatsink 
to be positioned between the heatsink 
fins.  
Important
If the sensor PCB is to provide accurate ambient tempera-
ture readings, it must have forced airflow and must not 
come into contact with the metal of the heatsink fins.  Do
not stack PAs with the fins together.
  It is possible for 
the fins on one heatsink to slide between the fins on the 
other heatsink.  This can damage the sensor PCB, and pos-
sibly result in the heatsink fins becoming locked together.
