Chapter 3: Preparing the Cabinet for Installation

3. Preparing the Cabinet for Installation

Follow these simple recommendations for best performance from your new enclosure.

3.1 Handling

NOTE: For palletized cabinets, see the unpacking instruction sheet before attempting to remove the cabinet from the pallet.

To achieve the level of acoustic performance and industrial needs of a high-quality 19” enclosure, the composition of cabinet parts means that the QuietCab Elite cabinets are very heavy. When moving the cabinet, we recommend that a minimum of two people carry out this task.

The individual doors and side panels are also very heavy and need to be handled with care.

3.2What Tools Will I Need?

2-point pozi drive screwdriver

10-mm ratchet and socket

3.3 Where Can I Put the Cabinet?

Be careful when choosing a site for the passive and active cabinets.

1.Don’t place cabinets next to room heating sources, for example, radiators.

2.Don’t place cabinets near windows (to avoid solar gain).

3.If possible, place cabinets in an air-conditioned room or in a well-ventilated space.

4.Check floor loading capacity. Consider the weight combination of both the cabinet and equipment housed.

3.4 Removing the Cladding

CAUTION: We recommend that a minimum of two people remove and assemble the cladding onto the cabinet.

1.To remove front passive wardrobe doors, turn the cam lock with the key supplied, then lift the swing handle and turn clockwise. Open doors without disturbing soundproof seals.

2.When doors are open, lift each side individually just high enough to clear hinge pins and safely stand the door against a solid wall.
