You must install the support rails in the rack before installing
the 2145 UPS-1U.
Complete the following prerequisites before installing the
support rails:
- Use the customer's hardware-location chart to determine where
in the rack that the 2145 UPS-1U is
to be installed.
- At the back of the rack, observe the Electronic Industries Alliance
(EIA) positions and determine where you are going to install the 2145 UPS-1U.
Because of its weight, position the 2145 UPS-1U where
it is easy to handle in one of the lower positions in the rack.
Perform the following steps to install the support rails
for the 2145 UPS-1U:
- Open the top of the 2145 UPS-1U shipping
carton. Grip the flaps on either side of the 2145 UPS-1U.
- Lift the 2145 UPS-1U clear
of the shipping carton and place it on a flat, stable surface with
the front facing you.
- Attach the long side of a mounting bracket 1 to
each side of the 2145 UPS-1U using
four M3 × 6 screws 2 for each bracket,
as shown in Figure 1.

for a 2145 UPS-1U into
the rack
- Loosen the assembly wing nuts ( 1 in Figure 2) on both rail
assemblies and adjust the rail size to the depth of your rack. After
you adjust the depth, tighten the assembly wing nuts as much as possible
while still allowing some movement.

- 2 Wing nut
- Select the holes in the rail where you want to position
the 2145 UPS-1U.
Note: The bottom flange of the support rail must align with
the EIA mark on the rack.
- Using two M6 × 10 screws ( 1 in Figure 3) and two clip
nuts 2 , attach the rail to the rear of
the rack. The customer's rack might be different than the one shown
here, and if so, might require different clip nuts or fasteners.

- Install two clip nuts ( 2 and 3 in Figure 4) to the front
of the rack, then attach the rail using just one M6 x
10 screw in the bottom mounting hole 1 .

- Repeat steps 6 and 7 for the other
rail.
- Tighten the assembly wing nuts on both rail assemblies.
