Note
The SSA-WALL-MOUNT kit
does not
include hardware for installing the mounting bracket on
a wall.
You must provide screws and wall anchors that are appropriate for the wall on which you are
installing the mounting bracket. The screws and wall anchors you provide must be capable of
supporting at least four times the combined weight of the SSA chassis and two power
supplies. For example, the combined weight of an SSA chassis and two power supplies is 14.6
kg (32.2 lb.). The screws and wall anchors must be able to support at least 58.42 kg (128.8 lb.).
Preparing the Installation Site
The SSA-WALL-MOUNT mounting bracket can be attached to two different types of wall construction.
Refer to the following topics for details.
•
on page 68
•
Concrete or Masonry Wall Construction
on page 69
Before you drill any mounting holes:
•
Ensure that walls are clear of plumbing and electrical lines.
•
Use the SSA-WALL-MOUNT mounting bracket as a template to mark hole locations on the wall
sheathing.
Hollow Wall Construction
For hollow walls studded with metal or wood framing and sheathed with drywall, plaster, or plywood,
use appropriate hollow wall fasteners in all four mounting locations through the sheathing material.
•
•
•
The four mounting locations on the SSA-WALL-MOUNT mounting bracket, which are located side to
side on 47.18 cm (18.58 in.) centers, do not coincide with typical wall stud centers. Position the mounting
bracket to avoid studs at the four mounting locations.
Toggle Bolts
Toggle bolts must be at least 3/16 inch. Each of the four toggle bolts used must be rated for 14.6 kg
(32.2 lb.) minimum.
