Prepare for Floor-Anchoring (optional)

Note: If floor anchoring and battery securing is required, read this section. If not, see “Prepare for Cables” on page 5.

Note: Allow for enough working space behind the enclosure for electrical work to be carried out (e.g. if you want to install a conduit box or if you want to connect an XR Battery Enclosure at a later stage). Minimum rear clearance is 100 mm (3.93 in) and must comply with applicable national and local codes. 600 mm (23.6 in) is recommended.

Note: The L-shaped floor anchoring brackets that secured the enclosure to the pallet during shipment may be used for a stand-alone UPS enclosure to enhance stability. See this chapter for hole positions and see also “Level the Enclosures (L-shaped Floor Anchoring Brackets) and Install Batteries” on page 20. The L-shaped floor anchoring brackets are not necessary when baying enclosures together. Instead, the three U-shaped floor anchoring brackets from the baying kit are used.

Note: Hole positions are only intended as a guide.

System arrangements

APC recommends the following arrangements of UPS units and XR Battery Enclosures (XR) in parallel.
