4.2.1. Custom Cabinets
The battery has been designed to fit into a standard 800mm deep 19inch rack enclosure.
If you are building your own enclosure, ensure the below is considered in your design.
• If the battery is installed in to enclosures without rails, please ensure that they are securely seated to
prevent accidental damage or tampering.
• If a custom enclosure or mounting method is used please ensure the batteries are not stacked more than
6 high unless battery support rails are used to distribute weight.
• Please ensure there is adequate air flow around the battery stack within the cabinet. 15mm minimum
around 4 side of the stack is required as minimum.
• Please ensure the selected IP rating is correct as per your location selection.
• All interconnecting battery cables for parallel connection shall be the same length and cable size.
• A busbar is recommended for connection of all parallel battery connections.
• An appropriate way of connecting the cabinet to the PCE should be considered.
• Please follow PCE instructions for fuse, cable and connection requirements. These will vary depending on
brand and product selected.
