torque specs for UE10000 - Sun Enterprise 10000[TM] |
|
26 Jun 2002 |
1) All procedures for component replacement should be followed. This includes any
patterns specified for tightening screws.
2) If an adjustable torque wrench is available, the build spec should be used.
From an engineering standpoint, it is important that the screws be tightened
with some confidence to the actual torque, and that the final torque be
consistent. It is recommended that the service technicians have an
adjustable torque driver, not a fixed tool. All the tolerances for the
system are specified to be within the accuracy of a reasonably high-quality
adjustable tools (+/- .5 in-lb up to 10 in-lb), and is what we have been using in the
lab throughout development. It should be noted that the steel-to-steel spec for
an M5 screw (centerplane) is __33.3__ in/lbs.
**However, a preset tool can be used provided the service engineer
adheres to the caveats below .**
3) These specs will be included in the next rev of the manual; engineering will be
updating there drawings per the changes noted below. Manufacturing should start
using these new specs after the release of the new drawings.
4) This took a lot of time to compile - please read it completely. (How's that for
begging people to read a manual ;-)

Note 1: Manual erroneously indicates #2-56, this will be corrected
in the next rev.
Note 2: This is lower than the Sun spec because the screwhead will
be pressed against a circuit board.
Note 3: The 6.0 in/lbs preset tool can be used provided a specific
pattern is followed (TBD).
Note 4: Mechanical failures have been observed due to over-torquing
attached hardware.
Note 5: Attachment hardware is a thin piece of metal, higher torque
is not recommended.
Note 6: BSD will keep original range, but will state that if a range
is given it override this spec.
Note 7: In this application a higher spec is not recommended due to
the opposing hardware.
