To Mount the Battery Pack in a Rack
The battery pack comes with standard 19-inch (46.5 cm) rack mount brackets (in the literature kit)
and mounting rails and cleats. There are three steps to install the battery pack in a rack. Each step
is explained in this section.
1. Install the mounting rails in the rack.
2. Attach the mounting brackets to the battery pack.
3. Slide the battery pack into the rack and fasten the mounting brackets.
Install the Mounting Rails in the Rack
The mounting rails are designed to fit a four-post rack. The rack can have any of the
common types of equipment mounting holes (square, round-threaded, or round-non-
threaded). All necessary hardware is provided.
If you are using a two-post rack, use the mounting brackets alone to mount the UPS.
Position the mounting brackets in the setback position.

1. Determine where in the rack you will mount the
battery pack. Each battery pack requires a space of
2U. Some racks have tick marks to indicate the
U-spaces.
2. Locate the designated U-space and, counting from
the bottom, mark holes 1, 2, and 5 on each front post.

3. Align the bottom hole on the mounting rail with the
bottom hole in the U-space (hole 1). Position the
rails so that the lip of the rail is on the inside bottom.
4. Insert a flat, Phillips head screw (10-32) and conical
washer into the second hole from the bottom (hole 2)
of the U-space.
5. Insert another screw and washer into hole 5 to
securely attach the front rail to the rack.
6. Expand the rail so that it spans from the front rack
post to the back rack post.
7. Use two screws and washers to attach the rail to the
back rack post. Use the same hardware (10-32 flat
head screws and conical washers) used in step 4.
8. Repeat steps 3 through 7 for the other rail.
