2-4 Compaq 3000 Series UPS Operation and Reference Guide
Rack Mounting the UPS
The 3000 Series UPS models must be mounted on fixed rails. Refer to the appropriate installation card (supplied with the UPS kit) to obtain instructions.
WARNING: The 3000 Series UPS models weigh 132 lb (60 kg). To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, take the following precautions:
■The 3000 Series UPS models MUST be installed at the bottom of the rack. If placed in the rack with existing equipment, the rack must be re- configured to allow installation of the UPS at the bottom of the rack.
■Do not use slides to mount the UPS in the rack.
■Use the fixed rails supplied in the installation kit.
■Use a minimum of two people to place the UPS on the rails.
WARNING: Make sure that the rack containing the UPS is stable. The following conditions must be met:
■The leveling feet are extended to the floor.
■The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling feet.
■The stabilizing feet are attached to the rack, if it is a single rack installation.
■The racks are coupled together in multiple rack installations.
■A rack may become unstable if more than one component is extended for any reason. Extend only one component at a time.
