The adjustable rack-mounting brackets (Part#: RMKIT18-32) feature retaining latches to prevent
users from inadvertently sliding the UPS or battery cabinet out of the rack.
To install the rack mount brackets:
1. Unpack two rack-mounting bracket assemblies and
mounting hardware from this kit. Bracket assemblies are
interchangeable between left-hand or right-hand.
Remove inner member of each bracket assembly as shown
at right by extending it to its outermost position, depress-
ing the retaining latch and then pulling the inner member
out of the bracket assembly.
2. Determine the height position inside the rack enclosure
where you want to mount the UPS or battery cabinet.
3. Install the rear member of each bracket assembly into the
rack enclosure with two M5 screws provided in this kit (see
figure at right). The return flanges on the bracket assembly
fit to the inside of rack mounting rails. Insert screws
loosely (finger-tight) into the top and bottom holes of the
return flange on the rear member. Extend the bracket
assembly by sliding the front member forward until it
touches the front rack mounting rail. Insert two M5 screws
loosely (finger-tight) into the top and bottom holes of the
return flange on each front member. Make sure that the
bracket assemblies are at the same mounting height on all
four (4) rack mounting rails.
4. Get eight M4 screws and eight M4 nuts from the hardware
pack in this kit. Each nut has a locking, nylon insert that
begins gripping the screw when it is halfway tight. Make
sure to tighten the nut and screw completely to ensure
locking action. Fasten the rear member and the front
member together using four screws and four nuts per
bracket assembly as shown in at right. For maximum
support, insert fasteners for each bracket assembly as far
apart as possible, depending on rack depth, while still
joining both members (see figures at right). Check
alignment of bracket assemblies and TIGHTEN ALL
SCREWS FROM Steps 2 and 3.
5. Prepare the UPS or battery cabinet (the “equipment”) for
rack mounting by following instructions in the equipment’s
user manual. The equipment may require additional parts
to be added or parts to be removed for rack mounting. After
it is prepared, lay the equipment in rack-mounting
position. Fasten the inner members from Step 1 to the
equipment on both sides as shown at right with eight M4
screws provided in the kit. Make sure retaining latch is
near the rear of the equipment as shown (see figure at
right).

CAUTION
Reduce the risk of tipping the rack enclosure by
placing the UPS or battery cabinet in the lowest
possible rack position.
