Installation
Refer to instructions below for information on how to install the UPS in a rack, as a tower configura-
tion, or when installing the UPS with optional battery pack(s). Once the UPS has been placed in the
desired tower or rack location, complete the remaining installation steps in sequential order, beginning
with “Connect Equipment to the UPS” on page 2.
To Install the UPS in a Rack
See the installation sheet supplied with the optional rail kit (SURTRK) to install the UPS in the rack. It
is recommended that you remove the battery before attempting to install it in the rack. See “Battery
Replacement Instructions” on page 11 for the procedure.
To Install the UPS as a Tower Configuration
To Install the UPS with External Battery Pack(s)
In addition to the UPS, if your configuration includes optional Smart-UPS RT battery pack(s)
(SURTA48XLBP or SURTA48XLBPJ), see the battery pack user manual to complete the physical
installation for the UPS with external battery pack(s).
The UPS must be installed above external battery pack(s) when in a rack. When installing the UPS as
a tower configuration, battery pack(s) must be installed to the right of the UPS when facing the front
of the UPS. Failure to follow these instructions could result in cabling shortage.
