Lowell LVR14-1421 Specifications
Model: LVR-series
Lowell VARI-RACK
Description:
Custom Fit: The VARI-RACK®is engineered for versatility as it sports an
innovative design that allows the depth to be selected during set-up (anywhere between 14" and 21"D). The four corner post rails have a scale
printed in rack unit increments to facilitate trimming if a custom height is
desired. And the narrow (19.214") width creates a slim footprint for mounting standard 19"W EIA equipment in narrow spaces. An assortment of options enables the VARI-RACKto adapt to a variety of applications. It’s the
ideal solution for rackmounted equipment in custom cabinetry or credenzas,
under counters or desks, or in any narrow or shallow open area.
Robust Frame: The VARI-RACK will support loads up to 400 lbs. Corner
post mounting rails are 11-gauge steel tapped 10-32. Base and top sections
are 14-gauge steel. Rack models with a height of 30, 38 or 44 rack units
include two side support brackets for torsional rigidity.
Assembly: Although the rack ships knocked down, the base and top are
pre-assembled to speed installation — only the depth adjustment is
needed. Adjustment brackets are printed with a scale (inches, millimeters,
rack units) and can be pinned in EIA increments or secured along a slot to
accommodate custom sizes. Includes 5/16" hex nuts and 10-32 x 1/2" flathead screws, and 10-32 hex nuts for pinning EIA depths.
Features:
• Removable top knockout panel with .5" knockout for wireless antennaes,
.75"-.5" and 1.5"-1" knockouts for conduit.
•Openings in top and base are determined by pinning depth of inner adjustment brackets.
• Each top and base section has a vented front for natural heat dissipation.
There is also a center cutout (with cover) to mount low voltage Decorastyle switches (order switches separately).
• Ships knocked down for freight economies.
• Made in the USA with 100% certified US steel. Black finish.
Optional: (order separately)
• Front Door (LVR-FD series): The front door (solid steel or steel frame with
smoked Plexiglas insert) is for a rack set to any depth. It sits 1.38" from
frame and mounts left or right (without drilling). Includes key lock.
• Rear Access Cover (LVR-RAC series): The rear access cover is suitable
for a rack set to any depth. It has vents at the top and bottom for passive

separately.
• Vented Side Panels (LVR---SP series): Side panels are designed for a
rack set to 21"D. The 22"D panel extends 1" beyond rack (.5" front, .5"
rear). Each panel is .625" thick, increasing overall rack width to 20.5". The
18-ga. steel panels feature top and bottom vents and recessed side handles. They can be secured with screws. Sold in pairs.
• Skirted Mobile Base (LVR-MB21): Mobile base can be ordered for a rack
set to 21"D. The 14-ga. steel skirted design hides (4) 3" swivel casters and

ordered for a rack set to 21"D. The 14-ga. steel skirted design hides (4) 3"

formula rubber tread that won’t mar floors and a tough polyolefin core that
helps absorb shocks.

support rear of rackmounted equipment. The rails are specially engineered
with a thin flange to fit the VARI-RACK. Sold in pairs.

any depth. Available as 4 swivel, or 2 swivel and 2 swivel-locking.
