Call Liebert Environmental Support at 1-800-543-2778if you require any assistance for the installation or operation of your RAC2-8 Autochangeover controller.
Select a location for the RAC2-8 that is convenient for both operation and cable routing. If the application at your installation is critical, the location should also provide limited access to the controller.
The RAC2-8 enclosure is surface mounted using four 1/4 in. bolts. The power cord is factory wired. Note that the use of a 220 VAC 50/60 Hz power source must be selected when the unit is ordered. This is not a field selectable option. Two EIA-232 ports are available at the bottom of the enclosure. All other customer cables enter through knockouts at the bottom of the enclosure.
The RAC2-8 includes a lithium backup battery for control memory. The battery is disconnected from the system for storage and shipment. Set DIP switch 2-8 to ON to connect the battery.
The RAC2-8 may show an alarm from a Liebert DataMate, mini- MATE, and/or mini-MATE Plus unit when an alarm condition does not, in fact, exist. If you are using or plan to use the RAC2-8 with the Liebert DataMate, mini-MATE, and/or mini-MATE Plus, remove the
C5 capacitor at the K5 common alarm relay to avoid false alarms:
