• Remove skirts and tip plates to access the cable cutout.

• Determine the maximum dimensions of the trimmed cutout. To ensure stability and

proper sealing, the KoldLok Extended Raised Floor Grommet should have a minimum

surface-to-oor contact of 1 inch (25mm) on three sides of the cutout. Otherwise, the

Grommet cannot be used to effectively seal the cutout. Contact Upsite Technologies,
Inc. at [phone] for customized products and installation services designed to seal
larger openings.

• Determine whether to install Grommets by screwing the product directly to the oor

with the self-tapping screws or by using the Adhesive Mounting Kit.

• Clean the tile and bottom surface of the KoldLok Extended Raised Floor Grommet using
an alcohol wipe or a clean cotton cloth, damp with a solution of at least 50 percent

isopropyl alcohol. Helpful tip: When choosing your cleaning cloth, do not use fabric or
paper that will disintegrate or leave particles that could interfere with the adhesive.

• The KoldLok Extended Raised Floor Grommet can be modied to t special situations.

Product Components (see Figure 1)

1. KoldLok Extended Raised Floor Grommet.

2. Right and Left End Caps for protecting and sealing the end of the Grommet.

3. Adhesive Mounting Kit provided as an alternative mounting method if screws cannot be

used. The kit includes seven foam strips with 2-sided adhesive backing to adhere the

Grommet to the oor and two strips of double-sided adhesive tape to mount the End

Caps to the Grommet.

4. Self-Tapping Screws are provided as the preferred method of securing the Grommet to

the oor tile.

Installation Procedure with Self-Tapping Screws:

*IMPORTANT: If the KoldLok Extended Raised Floor Grommets are being installed in an active data
center, remove the oor tile and install the Grommet outside of the active data center environment.
Following installation, return the oor tile and Grommet to the data center.

1. Position the Grommet over the cable cutout, with the ange resting on the oor tile and

Grommet laments covering the cutout.

2. Ensure the ange does not rest on top of any cutout trim. If the Grommet cannot be

placed without resting on the cutout trim, install the Grommet with the Adhesive

Mounting Kit. See Installation Procedure with Adhesive Mounting Kit on Page 4.

3. Once the Grommet is positioned as desired, drive a self-tapping screw through the cen-

ter pre-drilled screw hole on the Grommet ange to attach the Grommet to the raised

oor.
