Vertical placement of line Conditioner: Any harm?


I need to position one of my Line Conditioners, a Seakay Line Rover, vertically on its side in order to allow access to a door. Anyone know if this will somehow create a problem with the unit or its function?

thanks

As long as the minimal needs for ventilation are not impeded, I doubt that you would run into any kind of a problem. In my system I run three equi/techs in just the same way. They remain switched on 24/7 and I never had any trouble.
Line regenerators (PS Audio, Accuphase) can be likened to amps, I suppose. I've run solid state amps on occasion vertically on the side, but not directly on the floor, but with something to stand them on, in order not to impede the flow of ventilation around the heatsinks. Never had any trouble. Would not want to try it with tubes. Have not done it with my PS Audio 300 and 600, but here I would not have any qualms about it, if I had to.
