4.3.2  Battery Top Mounting Brackets

Battery Top Mounting Brackets

WARNING! ELECTRICAL HAZARD

MULTIPLE POWER SOURCES ARE PRESENT. ENSURE ALL INPUT POWER FEEDS ARE NOT 

ENERGIZED BEFORE INSTALLING THEM. ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION SHOULD ONLY BE 

PERFORMED BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL WITH PROPER TOOLS AND PROTECTIVE SAFETY 

EQUIPMENT.

MULTIPLE DCX MOUNTING KIT CONFIGURATIONS EXIST. THE ILLUSTRATIONS AND INSTRUCTIONS 

DEPICTED MAY NOT ACCURATELY REFLECT YOUR SELECTED CONFIGURATION.

NOTICE

:

DO NOT DRILL MOUNTING HOLES DIRECTLY ABOVE EACH BATTERY CELL – THE CELL WILL BE 

PUNCTURED.

CAUTION!

The DCX Series chassis includes mounting provisions for mounting brackets to secure into place on top of the battery 

stack. Note that the mounting location and terminal plate are configured for the -48VDC output terminals located on the 

top battery of the battery string.  

 

For C&D Technologies

®

, GNB

®

, and East Penn Manufacturing batteries, ensure that the battery bus bar kit included with 

the battery is configured for the -48V output to be the center top battery for direct bolted connection to the DCX.

 

 

For EnerSys

®

 batteries, ensure that the battery bus bar kit included with the battery is configured for the -48V output to 

be the center top battery (3x8 stack configurations) or the rightmost top battery (4x6 stack configurations).

  

  

The DCX mounting brackets will require finger tight installation onto the DCX to properly allow marking for self-tapping 

screw locations (EnerSys/C&D/GNB mounting bracket kits) or for 1/4 in. X 20 threaded insert locations found on the front 

of mounting brackets (East Penn mounting bracket kits). Brackets will then require removal from the DCX so that they can 

be secured into place onto the battery stack frame followed by reinstallation of the DCX.

NOTE: the mounting brackets for East Penn Manufacturing 

batteries each have a 1/4 in. x 20 threaded insert installed 

where the bracket seats inside of the cell module U-channel 

that runs left to right on top of the cell module.  

Step 1. 

Use the 3/8 in. bolts and washers included in the 

hardware kit to install the left and right mounting 

brackets via the slots in the underside of the DCX unit. 

Tighten the two bolts per side finger tight for alignment 

later. Refer to Figure 8 and 9.

Step 2. 

Position the DCX unit on top of the cell module over the 

-48VDC battery terminals on the top battery of the 

battery string. Carefully bolt the negative terminal posts 

to the holes in the DCX termination plate finger tight 

with the 1/4 in. x 20 bolts provided with the battery pack. 

Adjust the 3/8 in. bolts on the DCX mounting brackets 

to allow the DCX unit to adjust vertically via the bolt 

slots in the brackets. Adjust the DCX unit up and down 

to ensure that it is perpendicular to the battery module 

and that the termination plate seats on the battery 

terminals properly.
