Hello,
I wonder if in terms of proper air flow it's ok to stack on top of each other 5 lakeshore 224 monitors inside rack.
The rack itself has ventilation, but would 1.5cm distance between each unit (defined by the leg height) sufficient for normal operation?

Hi Adam,
Good question.
The Model 224 is passively cooled as it has a low power draw compared to our controllers. So rack ventilation alone should be sufficient to cool stacked instruments.
Higher-powered instruments like our Model 336 temperature controller are actively cooled with an internal fan that pull air through the instrument from one side to the other. So even these instruments should be suitable for stacking on top of each other in a rack.
Are you asking because you're planning on stacking this many Model 224 monitors? Or have you already done this and are experiencing problems?

Hi Ryan,
Thanks for your answer!
I am asking towards design preparations of the rack as there will be even more components than Lakeshore monitors. So we will just go ahead and stack them and hopefully everything will go smooth.
