For 1500 VA, 2200 VA, and 3000 VA uninterruptible power
supplies and 2200 VA and 3000 VA extended battery modules
Use the instructions in this document to install the 1500 VA, 2200 VA, and 3000 VA uninterruptible power
supplies and 2200 VA and 3000 VA extended battery modules in a rack cabinet.
Review the documentation that comes with your rack cabinet for safety and cabling information.
When you install the uninterruptible power supply or extended battery module in a rack cabinet, observe
the following precautions:
v The extended battery module and uninterruptible power supply internal battery and chassis are heavy.
Make sure that you have the minimum number of persons required to lift the components. See Table 1
on page 6 and Table 2 on page 7.
v Make sure that the room air temperature is below 35°C (95°F).
v Do not block any air vents; usually 15 cm (6 in.) of air space provides proper airflow.
v Plan the device installation starting from the bottom of the rack cabinet.
v Install the heaviest device in the bottom of the rack cabinet.
v Do not extend more than one device out of the rack cabinet at the same time.
v Connect all power cords to properly wired and grounded electrical outlets.
v Do not overload the power outlet when you install multiple devices in the rack cabinet.
You will need a Phillips screwdriver to install the uninterruptible power supply or extended battery
module in a rack cabinet.
Note: The illustrations in this document might differ slightly from your hardware.
The following parts come with the rack mounting kit:
v One right adjustable rail
v One left adjustable rail
v Four adapter plates with adhesive (for round hole racks)
v Sixteen M5 x 16 mm Phillips screws
Note: Removing the rack doors and side panels might make installation easier. See the rack cabinet
documentation for more information.

Installing an uninterruptible power supply or extended battery module
in the rack cabinet
To install an uninterruptible power supply or extended battery module in the rack cabinet, complete the
following steps:
1. For racks with round holes only: Install one adapter plate on each of the ends of the right and left
rails:
a. Locate the four adapter plates that come in the rail kit.
b. Peel off the covering that protects the adhesive side of the adapter plate.
c. Align the adapter plate holes with the holes on one end of a rail.
d. Press firmly to adhere the adapter plate to the end of the rail.
e. Repeat step 1b to step 1d to attach the other adapter plates to the ends of the rails.
3
2. Loosen the rail adjustment screw and adjust the left and right rail length to the depth of the rack
cabinet.
3. Select a location in the bottom of the rack cabinet for the uninterruptible power supply or extended
battery module.
4. Secure each rail to the front of the rack with two M5 x 16 mm screws. Make sure that the rails are on
the inside of the rack-cabinet mounting flanges, and the letter on each rail faces inside the rack.
5. Secure each rail to the rear of the rack with four M5 x 16 mm screws.
6. Tighten the rail adjustment screws in the middle of each rail.

7. For uninterruptible power supply installation only: To reduce the weight of the uninterruptible
power supply, remove the internal battery module:
a. Loosen the thumbscrew on the metal battery cover 1, slide the cover to the right 2, and open
the cover 3.
b. Using the plastic tabs, pull the battery module partially out of the bay.
