How to install Tripp Lite by Eaton 2-Post Rack-Mount Installation Kit

• Prepare the two-post rack by verifying that it is clean, level, and способен to support the combined weight of the UPS, transformer, battery packs, and the installation kit. Confirm rack depth and clearance for proper rail alignment.
• Unpack the installation kit and sort rails, brackets, and hardware, ensuring all labeled components are present. Inspect hardware for any damage before proceeding.
• Attach the mounting rails to the 2-post rack posts at the appropriate height, using the included hardware. Ensure rails are plumb and parallel to each other to avoid misalignment of the equipment.
• Mount the UPS, transformer, or battery pack to the installation brackets or rails according to the equipment’s mounting pattern. Secure devices to the brackets with the supplied fasteners, taking care not to overtighten and to maintain proper cable clearance.
• Slide the secured unit into the mounted rails, align with the rack openings, and finish by tightening any remaining screws to lock the assembly in place. Verify the unit sits evenly and that there is ample space for airflow and cable management behind and around the equipment.
• Route power and data cables with attention to bend radii and labeling for future maintenance. Re-check all fasteners, perform a light load test, and confirm that the equipment operates normally without undue vibration or shifting.
