Install the Liebert GXT3
™
5000RT230U indoors in a controlled environment, where it cannot be
accidentally turned off. Place it where air flows unrestricted around the unit. The installation location
must be free of water, flammable liquids, gases, corrosives and conductive contaminants. Maintain a
minimum clearance of 100mm (4 inches) in the front and rear of the UPS. Maintain an ambient
temperature range of 0 to 40°C (32 -104°F) without derating.
5.1 Install the Main Cabinet
The Liebert GXT3 may be installed in either a tower configuration or in a rack, depending on
available space and use considerations. Determine the type of installation and follow the appropriate
instructions in either 5.1.1 - Tower UPS Installation or 5.1.2 - Rack-Mount UPS Installation.
