How to Install the Enclosure

Before You Install the Enclosure

Warnings and

cautions

Before you begin to unpack the enclosure, read and follow

these warnings to prevent injury and damage:

• Use at least two persons to unpack the enclosure.

• Stabilize the enclosure before installing the components—

failure to do so could allow the enclosure to tip over.

• Do not extend more than one component from the enclosure

at one time to prevent the enclosure from becoming

dangerously unstable.

• Load the heaviest components first and place them toward

the bottom of the enclosure to prevent the enclosure from

becoming top-heavy.

Location of keys

and mounting

hardware

The keys are packed inside the enclosure, fastened at the top of

one of the mounting rails. The bag containing the mounting

hardware is fastened to the floor of the enclosure. To gain

access to the inside of the enclosure, remove the side panel.

(See page 13.) The 13/14 mm wrench is attached to the front of

the shipping pallet, just under the packaging.

How to unpack

the enclosure

1. Move the shipping pallet to a firm, level surface in an open

area. Inspect the enclosure for visible signs of shipping

damage.

2. Refer to the label on the packaging to determine where to

cut the wrapping. Using heavy-duty shears or a utility knife,

carefully remove the plastic stretch-wrap surrounding the

enclosure.

3. Remove the cardboard cover and the four, tall, cardboard

corner protectors.

4. Remove the four brackets that are anchoring the enclosure

to the shipping pallet. Use the 13/14 mm wrench (provided)

to remove the hex-head screws that secure the brackets to

the pallet.

5. With one person on each side of the enclosure, carefully roll

the it toward the rear of the pallet until the rear casters clear

the back edge of the pallet. Continue to slide the enclosure

rearward until the rear casters make contact with the floor.

6. While one person carefully tips the enclosure slightly away

from the pallet, have the other person pull the pallet away

from the enclosure.

Note: Save the pallet if you intend to reship the enclosure in

the future.

7. Inspect the enclosure for shipping damage. If you detect

shipping damage, contact APC Customer Support at the

number listed on the yellow sticker on the front of the

enclosure.

Disclaimer APC is not responsible for damage sustained during reship-

ment of this enclosure.

Before You Install the Enclosure continued

Take inventory After unpacking the enclosure, verify that all required

components and hardware have been shipped with the

enclosure. See “Product Inventory” beginning on page 3.

Note: If any items are missing, contact APC Customer Support

using a number or Web address listed on the back cover

of this manual.

Configuration Before installing your enclosure, plan the location of the

equipment to be installed. Consider the proximity needed by

some equipment, ergonmics of keyboards and video monitors,

and the maximizing of U-space.

The NetShelter Configurator, available on the APC Web site,

helps you plan your configuration to maximize the available U-

space of your enclosure(s).

Warning To maintain proper air flow, cover any empty vertical

enclosure space with blanking panels (AR8101, not

included). Improper air flow could damage installed

components.

To avoid damage or injury, level and stabilize the enclosure

in its permanent location before loading equipment.

10

How to Level the Enclosure

Leveling feet Leveling feet are attached under the enclosure at each corner.

Two leveling feet are also attached to the underside of the

detachable feet (included on the AR1000A and AR1001A). The

leveling feet can help provide a stable base if the selected floor

space is uneven but are not intended to compensate for a badly

sloped surface.

Leveling

procedure

1. Move the enclosure to a relatively level location.

2. Fit the 14 mm open-end wrench (included) to the hex nut

just above the round pad on the bottom of the leveling foot.

Turn the wrench clockwise to extend the leveling foot until

it makes firm contact with the floor.

3. Repeat step 2 for each of the remaining leveling feet.

4. Use a spirit level to determine which feet need further

adjustment to level the enclosure. Adjust as necessary.

11

How to Stabilize the Enclosure

Stabilizing kits The AR1000A and AR1001A enclosures are shipped with the

detachable feet installed. American Power Conversion offers

two additional products for stabilizing enclosures:

• Stabilizer Plate Kit (AR8111)—one front plate, two side

plates, and mounting hardware for attaching to the

enclosure frame. Stabilizer plates may also be bolted to the

floor to add stability.

• Bolt Down Bracket Kit (AR8112)—four brackets and

mounting hardware for attaching to the enclosure frame on

the sides (exterior or interior). These brackets must be

bolted to the floor.

If you use one of these kits, you will first need to remove the

detachable feet.

How to remove

the feet

1. Loosen the screws located just under the cover on each side

of the foot. To loosen, use a 10mm open-end wrench and

turn the wrench clockwise. Do not remove the hex screws.

2. Slide the cover off the base in a horizontal motion.

3. Remove the two 8 mm socket-head screws using the 5mm

Allen wrench (included) to remove the foot.

4. Repeat steps 1–3 for the other foot.

13

Side Panels

How to remove

and install the

side panels

You can remove the side panels for access to the interior. To

remove the side panels:

1. Use the key to unlock the panel, if necessary.

2. Slide both panel latches down at the same time and tip

the top of the panel toward you.

3. Release the latches and lift the panel up and off the nar-

row horizontal lip at the bottom of the enclosure frame.

To reinstall: Engage the bottom of the panel securely with the

rail before pushing the top of the panel forward into place.

14

How to Install Equipment

This section gives general information on mounting rack

equipment in the enclosure. See also the instructions provided

with the equipment to be installed.

How to identify

one U-space on

the mounting

rail

When installing equipment, you will need to locate the

beginning and end of a U-space on the mounting rails. Every

third mounting hole on the mounting rails of a NetShelter

enclosure is notched to indicate the middle of a U-space. A

U-space takes up one of these notched holes and one hole

immediately above and below it, as shown.

Caged nuts During installation of equipment in your enclosure, you may

need to install or remove caged nuts. Follow the procedures in

this section when installing or removing caged nuts from the

enclosure.
