Cabinet leveling feet
The MCS 5042 system includes leveling feet and does not require fastening to the floor. To ensure the enclosure remains stable during operation and servicing and to avoid personnel and equipment damage, take care when the loading of the equipment.
Warning:
Static loading limits cannot be achieved if the rack is not on its leveling feet, and rolled or pushed from its position.
Your floor weight capacity might not support the full static load capacity. Check with your floor provider before loading. HP is not responsible for floor damages due to floor overloading.
Note:
The IT rack of the MCS 5042 unit supports 1360 kg (3000 lb) of static loads of IT equipment on the leveling feet.
Figures 11A and 12A show the locations of the cabinet leveling feet, and figures 11B and 12B show an example of the locations on the raised floor. Ensure there is adequate floor and supporting understructure remaining to support the
Caution:
To reduce the risk of damage to the casters, make sure that the full weight of the rack rests on the leveling feet, and not on the casters. The casters are designed only as an aid in moving the rack into position. They are not designed to support the weight of the rack, and the caster might become damaged if relied on to support the rack.
