Installation or Relocation
MicroDC Relocation: Observe the following precautions when
you need to relocate your rack:
• Before you add or remove drawers, always take precaution
preventing the MicroDC from moving.
• Always install drawers / equipment at the bottom of the
MicroDC first.
• Always remove drawers / equipment from the top of the
MicroDC first.
• Always install the heaviest drawers on the bottom of the
MicroDC.
• Never push on the sides of the rack as this may shake the
MicroDC and make it dangerous.
3.2.3
Internal Mounting Rails
The MicroDC can accommodate rack-mounted or free-
standing computer and network equipment. Depending on
the model, the unit features either 19-inch to 21-inch (483
or 533mm) rack rails. These internal mounting rails will be
either center-mount rails or front- and rear-mount rails that
are designed in accordance with the EIA 310D or EIA 310E
rack standard. Both types are adjustable for equipment of
different sizes.
There are two pairs of mounting rails inside the MicroDC, the
front pair and the rear pair. The distance in between the 2
vertical rails in a single pair is fixed and previously agreed
while ordering the MicroDC (either 19 inches or 21 inches).
But the distance in between the 2 pairs is not fixed and can
be manually adjusted. In order to adjust it you will need to
move, i) the front pair, ii) the rear pair or iii) both front and rear
pairs. Each pair consists of two vertical rails. Each vertical
rail is fixed on the rack cabinet of MicroDC by the use of 2 or
3 screwing points, depending on the height of the MicroDC.
