(1)
Consider
earthquake-
resistant
anchoring for rack
installation.
(2)
Select a rack.
(3)
Select a fixed
construction.
(4)
Arrange for an
optional
earthquake-
resistance kit.
Remarks
to be attached to the sides of the
rack.
If an earthquake-resistance kit for
an expansion rack is used for a
base rack, there will not be enough
parts. These are the parts to be
attached to the sides of the rack.
Operation without the side parts
attached is not possible.
Fixed
construction
using leveling feet
None (*1) *1 The engineer responsible
arranges for the bolts and other
parts that secure the rack to the
building.
If the rack is not
fixed in place
Select a rack that
comes with a
stabilizer.
-
(*3)(*4)
None *3 Even if the selected rack comes
with a stabilizer, it can also be
fixed in place with an earthquake-
resistance kit. However, among
the components included in the
earthquake-resistance kit, the
leftover part will be the part to be
attached to the front of the rack.
*4 Even if the selected rack comes
with a stabilizer, it can also be
fixed in place with leveling feet
while the stabilizer remains
attached. In such cases, the
stabilizer is not necessarily
functional.
(1) Consider earthquake-resistant anchoring for rack installation.
Before selecting a 19-inch rack, consider whether to use earthquake-resistant anchoring for rack installation
according to the customer's required earthquake-resistance level and the conditions in the building where the rack
will be installed.
A rack fixed in place in a general building is earthquake-resistant up to an acceleration of 1000 gal.
For a rack not to be fixed in place, be sure to select one that comes with a stabilizer. Use the stabilizer to prevent
the rack from toppling during maintenance of any device mounted in the rack. In such cases, the rack in a general
building is earthquake-resistant up to an acceleration of 250 gal.
