Installing Rack Mount Units

The Rack Mount UPS comes with standard 19” (46.5 cm) rack mount brackets (ears) installed. It is supplied with L

channel supports. These supports must be used with this model to ease installation for a 19” rack.

Caution:

Remove the UPS before moving the rack.

Installing the UPS in a rack involves a four-step process:

1. Determine the location of the UPS in the rack.

2. Install the mounting rails in the rack.

3. Load the UPS into the rack.

4. Attach the mounting brackets to the rack.

This section describes each step in detail.

Determine the Location of the UPS in the Rack

•= UPSs are heavy. Select a rack location sturdy enough to handle the weight. Mount the UPS at or near the bottom

of the rack.

•= Select a rack location with adequate air flow that is free from excessive dust. Ensure that any air vents on the

sides of the UPS are not blocked. Do not operate the UPS where temperature or humidity are outside the limits

listed under Specifications, page 12.
