Installation
Rack Mounting
Mount your equipment in either a 4-post or 2-post rack or rack enclosure (see below for 2-post mounting). The user must determine the
fitness of hardware and procedures before mounting. If hardware and procedures are not suitable for your application, contact the
manufacturer of your 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

mounting hardware. Insert a peg into the third hole from the
top on the front end of each bracket. On the rear end, insert a
peg into the center hole. (Each front bracket has 6 holes and
each rear bracket has 5 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.

Remove the pegs at the front end of each bracket. Secure the
shelves
to the mounting rails permanently using the
B
included screws and cup washers
at the front of each rail (4 total) and 2 screws at the back of
each rail (4 total). Tighten all screws before proceeding. Note:
The rear pegs can be left in for installation, but the front ones
must be removed before the bracket is secured by screws.
WARNING!
Do not attempt to install your UPS until you have
inserted and tightened the required screws. The plastic
pegs will not support the weight of your UPS.

2-Post Mounting
If you mount 2U UPS models in 2-post racks, they require the addition of a Tripp Lite 2-Post Rackmount Installation Kit (model:
2POSTRMKITWM, sold separately). See Installation Kit owner's manual for installation procedure.
