Determine the Location of the UPS in the Rack
UPSs are heavy. Select a rack location sturdy enough to handle the weight. Mount the UPS at or near the bottom of the rack.
Select a rack location with adequate air flow that is free from excessive dust. Ensure that any air vents on the sides of the UPS are not blocked. Do not operate the UPS where temperature or humidity are outside the limits listed under Specifications, page 17.
Two additional sets of bracket holes, shown below at asterisks (*), are located on the sides of all rack mount UPS models except the 5000 VA. These holes allow mounting the brackets with a three inch or six inch setback. Move the mounting brackets back if desired to optimize the esthetic or physical requirements of the rack. The 5000 VA unit cannot be mounted in a setback position since it requires the full depth of the rack.

Check the rack to make sure it won’t tip after moving the mounting brackets.
