Safety Instructions

Use the following safety guidelines to ensure your own personal safety and to help protect your

system and working environment from potential damage. For complete safety information,

see the

Product Information

Guide

.

SAFETY: Rack Mounting of Systems

Observe the following precautions for rack stability and safety.

Systems are considered to be components in a rack. Thus, "component" refers to any system as well

as to various peripherals or supporting hardware.

CAUTION: Installing systems in a rack without the front and side stabilizers installed could cause the

rack to tip over, potentially resulting in bodily injury under certain circumstances. Therefore, always

install the stabilizers before installing components in the rack.

CAUTION: After installing components in a rack, never pull more than one component out of the rack

on its slide assemblies at one time. The weight of more than one extended component could cause the

rack to tip over and injure someone.

NOTE: Your system is safety-certified as a free-standing unit and as a component for use in a rack

cabinet using the customer rack kit when both the rack cabinet and rack kit were designed for your

system. The installation of your system and rack kit in any other rack cabinet has not been approved by

any safety agencies. It is your responsibility to have the final combination of system and rack kit in a

cabinet evaluated for suitability by a certified safety agency. The manufacturer disclaims all warranties

and liability in connection with such combinations.

•

System rack kits are intended to be installed in an approved rack by trained service

technicians. If you install the kit in any other rack, be sure that the rack meets the

specifications.

• Before working on the rack, make sure that the stabilizers are secured to the rack, extended to

the floor, and that the full weight of the rack rests on the floor. Install front and side stabilizers

on a single rack or front stabilizers for joined multiple racks before working on the rack.

• Always load the rack from the bottom up, and load the heaviest item in the rack first.

• Make sure that the rack is level and stable before extending a component from the rack.

• Use caution when pressing the component rail release latches and sliding a component

into or out of a rack; the slide rails can pinch your fingers.

• After a component is inserted into the rack, carefully extend the rail into a locking position,

and then slide the component into the rack.

• Do not overload the AC power supply branch circuit that provides power to the rack.

The total rack load should not exceed 80 percent of the branch circuit rating.

• Ensure that proper airflow is provided to components in the rack.

• Do not step on or stand on any system/component when servicing other systems/components

in a rack.

1-6 Rack Installation Guide

Installation Instructions

This installation guide provides instructions for trained service technicians installing one or more

systems in an open-frame relay rack or in a rack cabinet. The RapidRails™ rack kit can be installed

in all the system manufacturer's rack cabinets without tools, and the VersaRails™ rack kit can be

installed in most industry-standard rack cabinets. The procedures for installing both RapidRails

and VersaRails rack kits are similar. One rack kit is required for each system to be installed in the

rack cabinet.

This guide includes procedures for the following rack kits:

• RapidRails kit in a four-post rack cabinet

• VersaRails kit in a four-post rack cabinet

• Two-post kit (installed in either center-mount or flush-mount configuration)

Before You Begin

Before you begin installing your system in the rack, carefully read "Safety Instructions," found

earlier in this guide, as well as the safety instructions found in your

Product Information Guide

for additional information.

CAUTION: When installing multiple systems in a rack, complete all of the procedures for the current

system before attempting to install the next system.

CAUTION: Rack cabinets can be extremely heavy and move easily on their casters. They do not have

brakes. Use extreme caution while moving the rack cabinet. Retract the leveling feet when relocating

the rack cabinet. Avoid long or steep inclines or ramps where loss of cabinet control may occur. Extend

the leveling feet for support and to prevent the cabinet from rolling.

NOTE: For instructions on installing the system itself, see "Installing the System in the Rack."

Important Safety Information

Observe the safety precautions in the following subsections when installing your system in the rack.

CAUTION: You must strictly follow the procedures in this document to protect yourself as well as

others who may be involved. Your system may be very large and heavy and proper preparation and

planning are important to prevent injury to yourself and to others. This precaution becomes

increasingly important when systems are installed high up in the rack.

CAUTION: Do not install rack kit components designed for another system. Use only the rack kit for

your system. Using the rack kit for another system may result in damage to the system and personal

injury to yourself and to others.

Rack Requirements for VersaRails

NOTICE: The VersaRails rack kit is intended to be installed by trained service technicians in a rack

that meets the specifications of American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/Electronic Industries

Association (EIA) standard ANSI/EIA-310-D-92, International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 297, and

Deutsche Industrie Norm (DIN) 41494. One rack kit is required for each system that is installed in a rack.

Rack Installation Guide 1-7

Four-Post Rack Installation

Before attempting this installation, read through this entire procedure carefully.

Rack Stabilizer Feet

CAUTION: Installing systems in a rack without the front and side stabilizer feet installed and anchored

to the floor could cause the rack to tip over, potentially resulting in bodily injury under certain

circumstances. Therefore, always install and anchor the stabilizer feet before installing components

in the rack.

The stabilizer feet help prevent the rack from tipping over. See the documentation provided

with the rack cabinet for instructions on installing and anchoring the stabilizer feet.

Recommended Tools and Supplies

Removing the Rack Doors

See the procedures for removing doors in the documentation provided with your rack cabinet.

CAUTION: Because of the size and weight of the rack cabinet doors, never attempt to remove or install

them by yourself.

CAUTION: Store the two doors where they will not injure someone if the doors accidently fall over.

Marking the Rack

For a 1-U system, you must allow 1 U (44 mm, or 1.75 inches) of vertical space for each system you

install in the rack.

Rack cabinets that meet EIA-310 standards have an alternating pattern of three holes per rack unit

with center-to-center hole spacing (beginning at the top hole of a 1-U space) of 15.9 mm, 15.9 mm,

and 12.7 mm (0.625 inch, 0.625 inch, and 0.5 inch) for the front and back vertical rails

(see Figure 1-3). Rack cabinets may have round or square holes.

NOTE: The vertical rails may be marked by horizontal lines and numbers in 1-U increments. If you want,

you can make a note of the number marking on the rack’s vertical rail. It is not necessary to mark or place

tape on the rack.

1-10 Rack Installation Guide

CAUTION: If you are installing more than one system, install the mounting rails so that the first system

is installed in the lowest available position in the rack.

To mark the rack, perform the following steps:

1

Place a mark (or tape) on the rack's front vertical rails where you want to locate the bottom

of the system you are installing in the rack.

The bottom of each 1-U space is at the middle of the narrowest metal area between holes

(marked with a horizontal line on some rack cabinets—see Figure 1-4).

2

Place a mark 44 mm (1.75 inches) above the original mark you made (or count up three holes

in a rack that meets EIA-310 standards) and mark the rack's front vertical rails with a felt-

tipped pen or masking tape (if you counted holes, place a mark just above the top hole). This

mark or piece of tape indicates where the system's upper edge will be located on the vertical

rails (see Figure 1-4).
