3 Installation
3.1. Unpacking Equipment
Remove equipment from packing material and inspect for shipping damage or missing items. It
is important to report damage or material shortages to the shipping carrier while a
representative is on site.
If concealed damage or material shortages are found at a later time, contact the shipper to
make arrangements for inspection and claim filing. Refer to Section 10 in the event it is
necessary to return equipment to APC.
CAUTION: Appropriate lifting techniques and safety equipment should be
used to remove equipment from packing.
PLEASE RECYCLE: The shipping materials can be recycled. Please save
them for later use or dispose accordingly.
3.2. Mechanical Installation
Room / Location
NOTE: The APC dc power plant is to be installed in a room, vault, or similar enclosure that is
accessible only to qualified persons in accordance with the regulatory authority having
jurisdiction.
Prior to installation, drawings, floor loading requirements, external alarm points, ac service
entrance, and grounding schemes should all be checked and confirmed. If batteries are to be
mounted in a room separate from the power plant, careful attention should be paid to battery
cable voltage drop effects. Environmental operating temperatures and ventilation/cooling
considerations should also be noted, not just for the power system but also for all other
equipment that may reside in the power room area.
Mounting
The Magnum VS provides brackets to mount on a standard EIA 19 or 23-inch rack. Install the
power system using hardware designed for the rack. To install a Magnum VS 50 on a 23-inch
rack use bracket kit number 0M-2829. To install a Magnum VS 100 on a 23-inch rack use
bracket kit number 0M-2830.
