Mounting (Rack)
Mount the equipment in either a 4-post or 2-post rack or rack enclosure. The user must determine the fitness of hardware and procedures
before mounting. If hardware and procedures are not suitable for the application, contact the manufacturer of the rack or rack enclosure.
The procedures described in this manual are for common rack and rack enclosure types and may not be appropriate for all applications.
4-Post Mounting
Tripp Lite's 4-Post Rackmount Installation Kit (Model: 4POSTRAILKIT) is also
included with your UPS system for rackmounting purposes and convenience.
1
The included plastic pegs
while you install the permanent mounting hardware. Insert a peg near the center
B
of the front and rear bracket of each shelf as shown. (Each front bracket has 6 holes
and each rear bracket has 3 holes.) The pegs will snap into place.
After installing the pegs, expand each shelf to match the depth of your rack rails.
The pegs will fit through the square holes in the rack rails to support the shelves.
Refer to the rack unit labels to confirm that the shelves are level in all directions.
Note: The support ledge of each shelf must face inward.
2
Secure the shelves
to the mounting rails permanently using the included screws
B
and cup washers
as shown.

• For 3U equipment mounting, place 6 screws total at the front and 4 screws total
at the back.
Warning: Do not attempt to install your equipment until you have inserted
and tightened the required screws. The plastic pegs will not support the
weight of your equipment.
3
Attach your equipment's mounting brackets to the forward mounting holes of the
cabinet using the hardware included with your equipment. The mounting bracket
"ears" should face forward. (Some equipment may have pre-installed or integral
mounting brackets.)
4
With the aid of an assistant (if necessary), lift your equipment and slide it into the
shelves. Attach the equipment mounting brackets to the forward mounting rails
with user-supplied screws and washers
are also required.) Tighten all screws securely.
2-Post (Telecom) Mounting
To mount the equipment in a 2-post rack, purchase a Tripp Lite 2-Post Rackmount
Installation Kit (model: 2POSTRMKITHD, sold separately) for each module
installed. See the 2POSTRMKITHD owner's manual for complete mounting
instructions.
