2: INSTALLATION
The UPS has a “rack and stack” design that provides two mounting options. The UPS can be
mounted in a 46.5 cm (19-inch) equipment rack or stacked on a battery pack(s) model
SU24RMXLBP2U. Hardware is provided for either option.
UNPACKING
Inspect the UPS upon receipt. APC designed robust packaging for your product. However, accidents
and damage may occur during shipment. Notify the carrier and dealer if there is damage.
The packaging is recyclable; save it for reuse or dispose of it properly.
Check the package contents. The package contains the UPS (with battery disconnected), the front
bezel, and a literature kit containing one CD, one serial cable, and product documentation. The pack-
age will also include a mounting kit with brackets, cleats, feet, and hardware, and a rail kit (necessary
for rack mounting the UPS), containing mounting rails, installation instructions, and a hardware
packet.
230V models have one power cord included with the literature kit.
The UPS is shipped with the battery and the front bezel disconnected. You will connect
the battery and install the bezel during the installation procedure (described later).
POSITIONING THE UPS
Place the rack and the UPS where they will be used for either rack mounting or stacking. (Both pro-
cedures are detailed on the following pages.) The UPS is heavy. Select a location sturdy enough to
handle the weight.
You must install the UPS in a protected area that is free of excessive dust and has adequate airflow.
Ensure the air vents on the front and rear of the UPS are not blocked.
Do not operate the UPS where the temperature and humidity are outside the specified limits. Refer to
Specifications at the APC web site, www.apc.com/support
.
