how to install Middle Atlantic EB4-CP6 Blank Panel
Installing the EB4-CP6 Blank Panel is quick and straightforward, making it an ideal choice when you need to finish a rack install with a clean, professional look. Follow these steps to ensure a secure fit that preserves the integrity of your equipment and cooling strategy:
- Prepare your rack: Ensure the section of the rack where the blank panel will be installed is clear and free of obstructions. Confirm that the rails are aligned and properly secured.
- Align the panel: Hold the EB4-CP6 blank panel against the front of the rack at the desired mounting position. Make sure the mounting holes on the panel line up with the holes on the rack rails.
- Insert mounting screws: Using standard rack screws (typical to most 19" systems, such as 10-32 or M6, depending on your rails), insert screws into the two mounting ears on each side of the panel. Do not overtighten; snug the screws to avoid warping the panel.
- Secure and level: Tighten all screws evenly on both sides to keep the panel flush with the rack face. Check that the panel sits square and does not interfere with adjacent equipment or door clearance (if your rack has a door).
- Final check: Confirm that the panel is firmly attached, sits flat, and leaves a clean, uninterrupted line across the front of the rack. If necessary, adjust screws for a perfect fit and ensure there is no rattling during operation.
