NPACKING AND

NSTALLATION
A quality installation begins on the receiving dock.
Upon receipt and before unpacking, inspect the shipping container for damage or mishandling. If
carton is damaged, note on shipper’s receipt and check for concealed damage. If any damage as a
result of shipping is observed, file a damage claim with the shipper within 24 hours and contact
your local Liebert representative or Liebert Customer Service and Support at 1-800-543-2378 to
inform them of the damage claim and the condition of the equipment.
If unit is to be stored before installation, it is recommended to store the unit in a dry environment
with temperatures in the range of 0°C to 40°C. Use original packing materials or other suitable
means to keep the unit clean. When opening the shipping carton, use care not to puncture the car-
ton with sharp objects.
The unit is of a size and weight that it can be easily moved to its intended location. Refer to the
unit dimensions shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3. Typical unit weights are less than 70 pounds
(32 kg) for the wall or underfloor enclosure and less than 40 pounds (18 kg) for the rackmount
enclosure.
2.1 Location Considerations
The unit is designed to be installed indoors where the ambient air temperature is in the range of
0°C and 40°C with a relative humidity of 0% to 95% non-condensing.
The underfloor and wall mount enclosures are designed to withstand moderate amounts of mois-
ture such as is normally available under a computer room raised floor. Do not operate the units in
standing water.
Altitude - The standard units are designed for full load operation up to 5000 feet (1500 meters)
above sea level. For higher altitude applications, contact your local Liebert Representative or
applications engineering.
Heat Output - The units produce minimal heat output during normal operation. The typical heat
output, which should be included in any calculations for room heat load, is less than 260 BTU/
Hour (80 W/Hour).
Rackmount Installation - The rackmount enclosure is designed to fit into an EIA Standard 19
inch rack. For rackmount installation, support the unit on a shelf, bracket, or slide. Do not secure
only by the front mounting plate. Secure the unit into the rack using four screws through the
front plate. See Figure 2.

CAUTION:
Do not locate or operate the unit in hazardous areas where there
is conductive or explosive dust, flammable liquids or gases, or
corrosive substances.
