Enclosure Installation
Caution! Read All Instructions and Warnings Before Installation!
WARNING: The rack enclosure is extremely heavy. Do not attempt to unpack, move or install the enclosure without assistance.
Until it has been properly installed and stabilized, the enclosure is prone to tipping and could cause property damage and/or
personal injury. Use extreme caution when handling the enclosure and be sure to follow all handling and installation instructions.
Do not attempt to install equipment without first stabilizing the enclosure.
Preparation
The enclosure must be installed in a structurally sound area with a level floor that is able to bear the weight of the enclosure, all the equipment that
will be installed in the enclosure and any other enclosures and/or equipment that will be installed nearby. Before unpacking the enclosure, you should
transport the shipping container closer to the final installation location to minimize the distance you will need to move the unit after the protective
packaging has been removed. If you plan to store the enclosure for an extended period before installation, follow the instructions in the
Storage and
Service
section.
Unpacking
NOTE: The enclosure should be moved as close to the desired installation location as possible before it is unpacked from the
shipping container. Use a forklift or pallet jack to move the shipping container.
You need several tools (user-supplied):
• 13 mm Open-end Wrench
• Utility Blade
• Carpenter's Level
• Phillips-head Screwdriver
You also need the following hardware (included):
• (50) Phillips-head Mounting Screws (M6 x 5/8")
• (50) Cage Nuts (M6)
• (50) Nylon Cup Washers
1
Confirm that the shipping container is upright and stable, then use a utility blade to cut the
shrink-wrap securing the corner protectors. Apply the utility blade directly over the corner
protectors to prevent the utility blade from scratching the enclosure or cutting the heavy
protective plastic bag beneath the shrink-wrap.
WARNING: Do not scratch the enclosure
or cut the heavy plastic bag beneath the shrink-wrap. Do not push or pull the
enclosure while unpacking.
2
Remove the corner protectors. Save all packing materials (including the pallet) for later use
unless you are certain they will not be required. The packing materials are recyclable.
3
Remove the heavy plastic bag surrounding the enclosure. Examine the enclosure for any
damage or loose parts. Confirm that all parts are present. If anything is missing or damaged,
contact Tripp Lite for assistance. Do not attempt to use the enclosure if it has been damaged.
