NSTALLATION
(20”
AND
24”)
The 20” and 24” slide hardware kits (Options 63 and 64, respectively) provide standard flanges to
mount the slides into standard EIA relay racks. It should be noted that the slide flanges in the front
should be installed behind the rack’s front panel mounting rails. This will allow the rackmounting
ears to sit flush with the front of the rack. It should also be noted that although the hardware
provided in this kit will provide all the necessary components to successfully install the CT-100C
into a rack, there are many variations in how EIA relay racks are designed and additional adapter
hardware may be required to install the chassis. Please refer to the relay rack manufacture’s catalog
for additional options.
This procedure provides instructions for installing the 20” or 24” slide kits. Note that the 20” and
24” slide kits are identical except for the length of the slide units. A 20” slide kit is used when the
chassis is flush mounted and a 24” slide kit is used when the chassis is recess mounted. Note,
Option 59 must be purchased and installed prior to installing the rack slides.

Assembly Instructions
1. Lay the chassis on a protected work surface on its long side with the voltage monitor LEDs of
the chassis facing front with the power switch toward the top.
2. If the rackmount ears were installed flush, remove the rackmount ears and install the front
slide bracket to them as shown in the assembly drawing using a flat head screw driver. If the
rackmount ears were installed recessed, simply install the slide brackets onto the ears as
shown on the following page.
3. Reinstall the rackmount ears (if necessary).
4.
Install the top and bottom slide brackets using 1/4” Phillips pan head screws. Note that the
slide mounting holes should be oriented below the centerline of the chassis.
