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 be installed in a structually sound area that is able to bear the weight of the enclosure, all the equipment that will be installed in the
enclosure and 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:
You also need the following hardware:
• Level
• Appropriate hardware for wall mounting (not included)
• Phillips-head Screwdriver
• Appropriate tools for wall mounting
4.2 Unpacking
Use at least two people to unpack the enclosure.
1
Move shipping pallet to a firm, level surface.
2
Open box and remove the four foam cormer protectors. Save all packing materials for later use unless you are certain they will not be required. Packing
materials are recyclable.
3
4
With one person on each side, carefully lift the enclosure out of the box and place on a firm, level surface.
Examine the enclosure for any damage or loose parts. Confirm all parts are present. If anything is missing or damaged, contact Tripp Lite for assistance. Do
not attempt to use the enclosure if it has been damaged.
Never extend more than one component from the enclosure at a time.
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). 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: Do not push or pull the enclosure at the
side panels or pull the enclosure toward you. Only experienced equipment operators should attempt
to lift the enclosure. Use appropriate equipment and follow all applicable safety procedures and
regulations.
Warning: Never attempt to lift or install without adequate help.
Do not try lifting the enclosure alone.

4.4 Ground Connection
All parts of the enclosure are grounded to the frame of the enclosure. Use the enclosure’s front or rear
threaded grounding point A and an M6 screw (included) to connect the frame of the enclosure directly to
your facility’s earth ground connection with an 8 AWG (3.264 mm) wire. Route the ground wire under the
enclosure’s frame to ensure unhindered door operation. Warning: Attach each enclosure to earth ground
separately. Do not use the enclosure without an earth ground connection.

5. Enclosure Configuration
Before installation, be sure to plan the location and arrangement of components within the enclosure. Be sure all mounting rails are reversed or adjusted for
depth, depending on your equipment configuration.
5.1 Door Locks
All enclosure doors (including front and back doors, as well as both side panels) have locks that are
accessible by included keys.
5.2 Cable Access and Management
The back door of the enclosure has a square opening for cable access and management. An additonal
opening can be found on top of the main cabinet. Each opening can also be closed by screwing in the
removeable cable access panels.
5.3 Reversing the Enclosure
In order to accommodate various rack configurations, the enclosure can be reversed. To do so, simply turn the enclosure over so that the doors open in the
opposite direction.

5.4 Mounting Rails
The enclosure comes with mounting rails that have square holes for mounting rack equipment. To install
equipment, use the included cage nuts and other hardware. (See page 7 for installation of cage nuts.)
Warning: Be sure to have the enclosure securely mounted to the wall, or in its final position on the
floor before mounting any equipment inside. Also be sure to have all the right adjustments on your
rails before mounting equipment. (See below for Adjusting Mounting Rail Depth.)
5.5 Adjusting Mounting Rail Depth
Warning: Do not attempt to adjust rails while equipment is installed in the enclosure. Do not
attempt to use rails without screws installed. (2 per rail.)
The 4 mounting rails are pre-installed to accommodate equipment with a mounting depth of 20.5 inches
(521 mm). Do not adjust the mounting rails unless your equipment requires a different mounting depth.
The front and rear sets of rails can be adjusted independently in 1/4-inch (6mm) increments for mounting
depths between 3 inches (76 mm) and 20.5 inches (521 mm).

Each rail is connected to the enclosure with 2 screws: 1 in the upper corner and another in the lower
corner. Using a Phillips-head screwdriver, remove the screws that fasten the rails to the enclosure.

2
Slide the mounting rails to the desired depth and reattach them using the screws you removed in
Step 1.
6. Wall Mounting the Enclosure
Warning: Do not attempt to mount the enclosure to the wall with equipment mounted in the enclosure.
6.1 Mounting
There are 12 keyhole cutouts on the back door of the enclosure. Each keyhole can accommodate an M5 or
3/16” bolt. The holes are on centers and beginning with the two innermost holes, the centers are 13 3/4”,
16” and 18 1/4” apart, respectively moving outward and horizontaly. Holes are then a standard 19” apart
vertically, as shown in the diagram.
18¾”
16”
13¾”
Using a level, measure to position your mounting areas precisely. Use appropriate fasteners (not included)
to secure the enclosure to the wall. Warning: The area you plan to mount the enclosure to must be
able to withstand the weight of the enclosure and all mounted equipment. For the weight of the
enclosure and its capacity, see the specifications on page 8.

7. Equipment Installation
Warning: Do not install equipment until you have stabilized the enclosure. Install heavier equipment first and install it towards the bottom of the
enclosure. Install equipment starting from the bottom of the enclosure and proceeding toward the top of the enclosure - never the reverse. If using
sliding equipment rails, be careful when extending the rails. Do not extend more than one set of sliding equipment rails at one time. Avoid extending
sliding equipment rails near the top of the enclosure.
Note: The square holes in the middle of each rack unit are numbered and also include a small notch to aid identification. A single rack unit includes the space occupied by
the numbered hole and the holes directly above and below.

7.1 Installing or Removing Cage Nuts
WARNING: The flanges of the cage nuts should engage the sides of the square opening in the rail, not the top and bottom. Follow the instructions in
your equipment documentation to ensure proper installation of your equipment.
1
Locate the numbered square openings in the mounting rails where you plan to install your equipment.
You will install cage nuts (included) into the square openings in order to provide an attachment point
21
for the mounting screws (included). Note: Consult your equipment documentation to determine how
many cage nuts will be required and where they will need to be installed.
20

2
From the inside of the mounting rail, insert one of the flanges of the cage nut through the square
opening. Press it against the side of the square opening. Each flange should engage one side of the
square opening, not the top or bottom.
20

3
Compress the cage nut at the sides slightly to allow the remaining flange to fit through the square
opening. When the cage nut is properly installed, both flanges will protrude through the square
opening and will be visible on the outer surface of the mounting rail. Repeat steps 1-3 until all
required cage nuts are installed.

After installing the required cage nuts, use the included mounting screws and cup washers to secure
your equipment to the rack rail. Place the cup washers between the screws and the equipment
mounting brackets.
Note: Your equipment may also include mounting hardware. Read the mounting instructions that came with your
equipment before installing your equipment.
