4.2Mounting Fuse Platform on Rack
The fuse platform can be mounted in either a 19- or 23-inch (48.26 or 58.42 cm) wide rack. Two sets of mounting brackets, one set for 19-inch racks and one set for 23-inch racks, are provided with the fuse platform.
Eight 5/16-inch (7.936 mm) long, thread-forming, Phillips-drive, 8-32 flat-head screws are provided for attaching the mounting brackets to the panel. Four 3/8-inch (9.53 mm) long, Phillips-drive, 12-24 pan-head screws (with flat washers) are provided for attaching the mounting brackets to the equipment rack.
Note: A fuse platform with the cable management bar attached may exceed the 12 inch (305 mm overall depth objective described in GR-63 CORE, 02-14.
Caution: When attaching the mounting brackets to the fuse platform, use only the 5/16-inch (7.94 mm) long, thread-forming, flat-head screws supplied with the fuse platform. Use of any other hardware could cause contact with internal parts of the fuse platform. If parts are missing, contact ADC to order replacement parts.
Use the following procedure to attach the mounting brackets to the fuse platform and to install the fuse platform in the equipment rack:
1.Select the set of mounting brackets (19- or 23-inch) that correspond to the width of the equipment rack into which the fuse platform will be installed.
2.Orient the mounting brackets as shown in Figure 13.
3.Attach the brackets to the sides of the fuse platform using the eight 5/16-inch (7.94 mm) long flathead screws provided. Tighten screws to 15 pound force-inches (1.7 Newton meters) of torque to insure grounding.
