2.1.3 Rack-Mounting the TPSD
The TPSD can be installed in most relay racks with standard EIA hole spacing. If a relay rack is needed they are
available for purchase from La Marche. The 4B, 4 and 9 cases are shipped from the factory with the necessary
brackets installed for rear mounting on a relay rack
(The same bracket is used for wall mounting). The rack
mounting bracket for the 4B and 4 cases allows for mounting on either a 19” or 23” rack. The rack mounting
bracket for the 9 case allows for mounting on a 23” or 30” rack.
Before installing the charger on the rack locate the conduit entrances and be sure the knockouts on the sides or
bottom of the charger are accessible after the charger is rack-mounted.
The table and figure below shows rack-mounting options for TPSD.
Rack Mounting Procedure
To rack mount the TPSD, first mount the unit onto the
rack-mounting brackets using the hardware supplied.
Second, install the brackets onto the rack. Provide at
minimum 6in (152mm) of air space above and below
to allow for cooling.
If you are center-mounting the charger, install the bracket on the front side of the relay rack. If you are
rear-mounting the charger, install the bracket to the back side of the relay rack, as pictured in the Figure 4
above-left.
