Safety Instructions

Use the following safety guidelines to ensure your own personal safety and to help protect your server, storage system, or appliance from potential damage. For complete safety, regulatory, and warranty information, refer to your Dell™ system’s System Information document.

Precautions for Rack-Mountable Product s

Observe the following precautions for rack stability and safety. Also refer to the rack installation documentation accompanying the system and the rack for specific warning and/or caution statements and procedures.

Servers, storage systems, and appliances are considered to be components in a rack. Thus, “component” refers to any server, storage system, or appliance, as well as to various peripherals or supporting hardwa re.

CAUTION: Installing system components in a rack without the front and side

stabilizers ins talled could c ause the rack to tip ove r, potentially resulting in bodily injury or dea th u nder ce rtain circu mstances . T herefo re, al ways i nstal l the stabilizers before ins talling co mponents in the rack.

CAUTION: After installing s ystem/compo nents in a rack, never p ull more than

one component out of the rack on its slide ass emblies at one time. The weigh t of more than one extended component could cause the rack to tip over and injure someone.

NOTE: Your Dell system is safety-certified as a free-standing unit and as a component for use in

a Dell rack cabinet using the Dell customer rack kit. The installation of your system and rack kit in any non-Dell rack cabinet has not been approved by any safety agencies. It is your responsibility to have the final combination of system and rack kit in a non-Dell rack cabinet evaluated for suitability by a certified safety agency . Dell disclaims all liabili ty and warranties in connection with such combinations.

• System rack kits are intended to be installed in a Dell rack by trained service technicians. If you install the kit in any other rack, be sure that the rack meets the specifications of a Dell rack.

• Do not move large racks by yourself. Due to the height and weight of the rack, it is recommended that a minimum of two people perform this task.

• Before working on the rack, make sure that the stabilizers are secured to the rack, extend to the floor, and that the full weight of the rack rests on the floor. Install front and side stabilizers on a single rack or front stabilizers for joined multiple racks before working on the rack.

Rac k I n st a ll a t io n G u i de 1-1

• Always load the rack from the bottom up, and load the heaviest item in the rack first.

• Make sure that the rack is level a n d stable before extending a component from the rack.

• Use caution when pressing the component rail release latches and sliding a component into or out of a rack; the slide rails can pinch your fingers.

• After a component is inserted into the rack, carefully extend the rail into a locking position, and then slide the co m ponent into the rack.

• Do not overload the AC supply branch circuit that pr ovides power to the rack. The total rack load should not exceed 80 percent of the branch circuit rating.

www.dell.com | support.dell.com

• Ensure that proper airflow is provided to components in the rack.

• Do not step on or stand on any system/component when servicing other systems/components in a rack.

Installation Instructions

This installation guide provides instructions for trained servic e technicians installi ng one or more systems in a rack cabinet. The RapidRails™ rack kit can be installed in all Dell™ rack cabinets, and the VersaRails™ rack kit can be installed in most industry-standard rack cabinets. The procedures for installing both RapidRails and VersaRails rack kits are similar. One rack kit is required for each system to be installed in the rack cabinet.

CAUTION: Do not attempt to install rack kit components designed for another

system. Use only the rack kit for your system. Using the rack kit for another system may result in da mage to the system and personal injury to yoursel f and to others.

NOTE: If your system is a tower version, you m ust first convert the system to a rack version

using a tower-to-rack conversion kit. Instructions for installing this kit are included in this document.

RapidRails Rack Kit Contents

The RapidRails rack kit consists of one pair of RapidRails mounting rails (see Figure 1-1).

Non-Dell Rack Requirements

NOTICE: This rack kit is intend ed to be installe d by trained service technicians in a rack that

meets the specifications of American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/Electronic Industries Association (EIA) standard ANSI/EIA-310-D-92, International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 297, and Deutsche Industrie Norm (DIN) 41494. One rack kit is required for each system that is installed in a rack.

Before You Begin

Before you install your system in the rack, read the “Safety Instructions” in the front of this document, as well as the safety instructions in your System Informat ion booklet for

www.dell.com | support.dell.com

additional information.

CAUT ION: When installing multi ple systems in a rack, complete al l of the

procedures for the current system before attempting to install the next system.

Importan t S af ety Inform at ion

Observe the safety precautions in the following subsections when installing your system in the rack.

CAUT ION: You must strictly follow the procedures in this document to protect

yourself as well as others who may be involved. Your system may be very large and heavy, and proper preparation and planning are important to prevent injur y to yourself and others. This becomes increasin gly important when systems are installed high up in the r ack.

Rack Stabilize r Feet

CAUT ION: Installing systems in a rack without the front and side stabil izer feet

installed and anchored to the floor cou ld cause the rack to tip over, potentially resulting in bodily injury or death unde r certain circumstances. Therefore, always install and anchor the stabi lizer feet before installing components in the rack.

CAUTION: After installing sys tems in a rac k, never pu ll more than one system

out of the rack at one time. The weight of more than o ne extended system could cause the rack to tip over and cause injury.

The stabilizer feet help prevent the rack from tipping over when a system or other component is pulled out of the rack. See the documentation provided with the rack cabinet for instructions on installing and anchoring the stabilizer feet.

1-4 Rack Installation Guide

Recommended Tools and Supplies

The following items make the installation easier:

• A #2 Phillips screwdriver (if installing a VersaRails kit)

• Torx T-10 driver (if installing the tower-to-rack kit)

• 3/16-inch hex-head wrench (if installing the tower-to-rack kit)

Installation Tasks

Installing a rack kit involves the following tasks:

1 Removing the rack doors 2 Marking the rack 3 Installing the mounting rails in the rack 4 Installing the tower-to-rack conversion kit (if needed) 5 Installing the system in the rack 6 Replacing the rack doors

NOTE: The procedu r es that follow apply to both Dell rack cabin ets and rack cabinets not

manufactured by Dell unless identified as specific to one or the other.

Removing the Rack Doors

See the procedures for removing doors in the documentation provided with your Dell 24-U and 42-U rack cabinets. If you have a Dell PowerEdge™ 4210 rack cabinet, see the procedures in the Dell PowerEdge 4210 Rack Installation Guide. If you have a rack cabinet not manufactured by Dell, see the manufacturer’s documentation for removing doors.
