HARDWARE INSTALLATION

These versatile Battery modules can be mounted in a rackmount or vertical tower orientation. This versatility is especially important to growing organizations with changing needs that value having the option to position a Battery module on a floor or in a rackmount system. Please follow the instructions below for the respective mounting methods.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

CAUTION! To prevent the risk of fire or electric shock, only use the supplied hardware to attach the mounting brackets.

RACKMOUNT INSTALLATION

Step 1: Remove the internal battery trays from the Battery module (See page 7)

Step 2: Rackmount ears installation

Attach the two rackmount ears to the Battery module using the provided screws M5X8L*8pcs.

Step 4: Adjust rackmount rails to fit your rack

Attach the rackmount rail to your rack with two M5X12L screws and two plastic washers at the front of the rack. (Located in position 1 & position 6) Do not tighten the screws. Adjust the rail size on the rail assembly of your rack. Secure the rail to the rear of the rack with two M5X12L screws and two plastic washers. Tighten all screws at the front and rear of the rail. Once completed, perform the same steps for assembling the other rackmount rail.
