4. Enclosure Installation

Caution! Read All Instructions and Warnings Before Installation!
Warning: Rack enclosures can be extremely heavy. Do not attempt to unpack, move or install the enclosure without assistance.
Use extreme caution when handling the enclosure and be sure to follow all handling and installation instructions. Do not
attempt to install equipment without first stabilizing the enclosure.

4.1 Preparation

The enclosure must only be mounted to wall surfaces that can safely support the combined weight of the enclosure, equipment and all attached
hardware and components, or floor areas capable of handling the full enclosure load and contents as well as any other enclosures and/or equipment
that will be installed nearby. Before unpacking the enclosure, you should transport the shipping container closer to the final installation location to
minimize the distance you will need to move the unit after the protective packaging has been removed. If you plan to store the enclosure for an
extended period before installation, follow the instructions in the Storage and Service section.
You need several tools:
• Level
• Phillips-head Screwdriver
• Appropriate tools for wall mounting

4.2 Unpacking

Move shipping pallet to a firm, level surface.
1
Open box and remove the corner protectors. Upon unpacking, examine the inside of the cabinet for any additional packing material. Make sure to
2
remove all packing materials from the interior and exterior of the unit. Save all packing materials for later use unless you are certain they will not
be required. Packing materials are recyclable.
With one person on each side, carefully lift the enclosure out of the box and place on a firm, level surface.
3
Examine the enclosure for any damage or loose parts. Confirm all parts are present. If anything is missing or damaged, contact Tripp Lite for
4
assistance. Do not attempt to use the enclosure if it has been damaged.

4.3 Placement

If using the optional casters, you can use the casters to move the enclosure for a short distance over a level, smooth, stable surface by pushing it from
the front or rear (not the side panels). The casters are not intended for making the enclosure a mobile application. Do not attempt to roll the
enclosure over long distances. The enclosure should be moved close to its installation location inside its shipping container before it is unpacked.
Warning: Never attempt to lift or install without adequate help.

4.4 Ground Connection

All parts of the enclosure are grounded to the
frame of the enclosure. Connect your facility's
earth ground connection to the provided ground
stud using an 8 AWG (3.264 mm) wire.
A
Warning: Attach each enclosure to earth
ground separately. Do not use the
enclosure without an earth ground
connection.
You also need the following hardware:
• Appropriate hardware for wall mounting (not included)
Use at least two people to unpack the enclosure.
Do not try lifting the enclosure alone.
