ADJUSTABLE RACK-MOUNT KIT INSTALLATION
This kit contains parts needed to mount several different models of Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) and Battery Cabinets into EIA310-D Standard 4-Post Racks that are 18" to 32" deep. The weight limit per pair of Adjustable Rack-Mounting Brackets is 250 pounds (113 kg). Parts included are: (2) Rear Bracket Members, (2) Front Bracket Members, (2) Inner Bracket Members, (16) M4 x 8 mm Machine Screws, and (12) M5 x 12 mm Machine Screws. Tools needed for installation are: a Phillips Screwdriver and a 7 mm Wrench. The Adjustable Rack-Mounting Brackets feature Retaining Latches to prevent users from inadvertently sliding the UPS or Battery Cabinet out of the Rack.
1.Unpack (2) Rack-Mounting Bracket Assemblies and mounting hardware from this kit. Bracket Assemblies are interchangeable between left-hand or right-hand. Remove Inner Member of each Bracket Assembly as shown in Figure 1 by extending it to its outermost position, depressing the Retaining Latch and then pulling Inner Member from Bracket Assembly.
2.Determine the height position inside the Rack Enclosure where you want to mount the UPS or Battery Cabinet. (CAUTION: REDUCE RISK OF
TIPPING THE RACK ENCLOSURE BY PLACING UPS OR BATTERY CABINET IN THE LOWEST POSSIBLE RACK POSITION.) Install Rear Member of each Bracket Assembly into Rack Enclosure with (2) M5 Screws provided in this kit. (See Figure 2) Return flanges on Bracket Assembly fit to the inside of Rack Mounting Rails. Insert Screws loosely (finger-tight) into top and bottom holes of return flange on Rear Member. Extend Bracket Assembly by sliding Front Member forward until it touches the front Rack Mounting Rail. Insert (2) M5 Screws loosely (finger-tight) into top and bottom holes of return flange on each Front Member. Make sure Bracket Assemblies are at the same mounting height on all (4) Rack Mounting Rails.

support, locate fasteners for each Bracket |
|
|
Assembly as far apart as possible, depending on |
|
|
rack depth, while still joining both Members (See |
