Leveling
WARNING: Level the enclosure before attempting to install equipment. Use the levelers to provide long-term support. Install the
enclosure in a structurally sound area with a level floor that is able to bear the weight of the enclosure, all equipment that will be
installed in the enclosure and any other enclosures and/or equipment that will be installed nearby.
Enclosure Installation
1
After the enclosure has been moved to the installation location, use a carpenter's level to check
the slope of the floor. If the floor slopes more than 1%, choose an alternate installation site.
2
Use a 14 mm open-end wrench to lower each leveler
A
until it reaches the floor. (There are 4
levelers, 2 at the front and 2 at the rear.) Make sure each leveler contacts the floor solidly.
Note:
1. Lower a leveler by turning it clockwise; raise a leveler by turning it counter-clockwise.
2. Damage to the doors may occur if the levelers are retracted too far.
3
After lowering each leveler, use the carpenter's level to confirm that the enclosure is level in all
directions. Adjust the levelers as required until the enclosure is level.
4
(Optional) To provide an additional measure of stability, you can attach the shipping brackets
removed in the “Unpacking” section using the hardware that attached the enclosure to the
shipping pallet. Use a 13 mm open-end wrench to connect the brackets to the outer
A
bracket
mounting points of the enclosure. Attach the brackets to secure mounting points in the floor
using user-supplied hardware or Tripp Lite's SmartRack Bolt-Down Kit (Part # SRBOLTDOWN).
Ground Connection
All the parts of the enclosure are grounded to the frame of the enclosure. Use the enclosure's front
or rear threaded grounding point
A
and an M6 screw (included) to connect the frame of the
enclosure directly to your facility's earth ground connection with an 8 AWG (3.264 mm) wire. Route
the ground wire under the enclosure's frame to ensure unhindered door operation.
WARNING:
Attach each enclosure to earth ground separately. Do not use the enclosure without
an earth ground connection.
AC Power Connection
To power the ventilation fans, you will need to connect each fan panel to an AC power source. Each fan panel has a C14 inlet at its center. Use the
included C13-to-NEMA 5-15P power cords (3) to connect each fan panel to a 120V AC power source.
