2.0MAJOR COMPONENTS
A Knurr DCM may have any or all of the components addressed in this section, dependin g on its
configuration.
2.1Frame
The base of all Knurr DCM products is the frame. The Knurr DCM features a fully assembled,
extruded aluminum frame with a patented T-slot that permits many of the cabinet’s tool-less
mounting features.
The racks can accommodate shelf- or rack-mounted equipment on 19-inch (483mm) adjustable rails.
See Knurr DCM model numbers on page 28 and illustrations for meas urements of different
models.
Cutouts in the top covers permit customer cable entry. The top of the Knurr DCM also is drilled for
mounting a Liebert XDV top-mount cooling unit.
2.2Enclosure
Exterior components of the Knurr DCM are painted black (RAL 7021)
2.2.1Doors
All doors are framed from sheet metal and have hexagonal perforations leaving 83 percent of the door
open to airflow for efficient cooling. A two-point latch and push button lock come standard.
Doors are available in single- or dual-door designs for easier access. All doors are removable and
single doors are designed for reversible (left/right) hinging (see 3.7.1 - Remove the Door and 3.7.2 - Reverse the Door). Each type of door swings 135 degrees. Each door is perforated; each is available

2. Cut the shrink wrap and remove all packaging.
3. Remove the lag bolts securing each shipping bracket to the shipping pallet; there is one bracket at
each corner of the Knurr DCM; each bracket has two lag bolts (see Figure 3).
4. Raise the leveling feet so that the rack will rest on the feet:
a. Use the supplied hex wrench to lower each caster until the Knurr DCM is not resting on the
shipping brackets.
b. Remove the hex bolts securing the shipping brackets to the Knurr DCM.
Leave the shipping brackets attached if they will be used to secure the cabinet to the floor.
5. Use a pallet jack or forklift to raise the Knurr DCM off the shipping pallet.
6. Slide the shipping pallet out from under the rack.
The Knurr DCM may be position ed for installation either with the forklift, by two or more people

The Knurr DCM is designed with T-slots on exposed faces of the aluminum frame membe rs. These
T-slots permit placing nutbars and spring nuts anywhere along a frame member to mount equipment
at any distance desired (see Figure 4). Nutbars and spring nuts accept M5 and M6 screws used to

Installation
3.5.1Inserting a Nutbar or Spring Nut
To insert a nutbar or spring nut into a T-slot on the Knurr DCM frame, compress the spring on the
back of the nutbar and slip it into the T-slot (see Figure 5). If the nutbar or spring nut does not
flatten out into the slot, press down on the edge of the block that is too high.
Properly installed nutbars and spring nuts have the thread hole section on the outer side of the T-slot
(see Figure 5). The leaf spring holds the nutbar or spring nut in place while a screw is threaded and
tightened. Nutbars and spring nut s can be pressed down with a small tool and moved for better
alignment.
