Rack Installation Guide 5

Safety Instructions

Use the following safety guidelines to ensure your own personal safety and

to help protect your system and working environment from potential damage.

For complete safety and regulatory information, see the Product Information

Guide that shipped with your system. Warranty information might be

included in this document or as a separate document.

SAFETY: Rack Mounting of Systems

Observe the following precautions for rack stability and safety. Also refer to

the rack installation documentation accompanying the system and the rack

for specific caution statements and procedures.

Systems are considered to be components in a rack. Thus, "component" refers

to any system as well as to various peripherals or supporting hardware.

CAUTION: Before installing systems in a rack, install front and side stabilizers on

stand-alone racks or the front stabilizer on racks joined to other racks. Failure to

install stabilizers accordingly before installing systems in a rack could cause the

rack to tip over, potentially resulting in bodily injury under certain circumstances.

Therefore, always install the stabilizer(s) before installing components in the rack.

After installing system/components in a rack, never pull more than one component

out of the rack on its slide assemblies at one time. The weight of more than one

extended component could cause the rack to tip over and may result in serious

injury.

NOTE: Your system is safety-certified as a free-standing unit and as a component

for use in a Dell rack cabinet using the customer rack kit. The installation of your

system and rack kit in any other rack cabinet has not been approved by any safety

agencies. It is your responsibility to ensure that the final combination of system and

rack complies with all applicable safety standards and local electric code

requirements. Dell disclaims all liability and warranties in connection with such

combinations.

• System rack kits are intended to be installed in a rack by trained service

technicians. If you install the kit in any other rack, be sure that the rack

meets the specifications of a Dell rack.

CAUTION: Do not move racks by yourself. Due to the height and weight

of the rack, a minimum of two people should accomplish this task.

6 Rack Installation Guide

• Before working on the rack, make sure that the stabilizers are secured to

the rack, extended to the floor, and that the full weight of the rack rests

on the floor. Install front and side stabilizers on a single rack or front

stabilizers for joined multiple racks before working on the rack.

• Always load the rack from the bottom up, and load the heaviest item in

the rack first.

• Make sure that the rack is level and stable before extending a component

from the rack.

• Use caution when pressing the component rail release latches and sliding

a component into or out of a rack; the slide rails can pinch your fingers.

• Do not overload the AC supply branch circuit that provides power to

the rack. The total rack load should not exceed 80 percent of the branch

circuit rating.

• Ensure that proper airflow is provided to components in the rack.

• Do not step on or stand on any component when servicing other

components in a rack.

General Installation Instructions

This installation guide provides instructions for trained service technicians

installing one or more systems in a rack cabinet. The RapidRails™

configuration can be installed without tools in manufacturer's rack cabinets

that have square holes; the VersaRails™ configuration can be installed in most

industry-standard rack cabinets that have square or round holes. One rack kit

is required for each system to be installed in the rack cabinet.

Rack Installation Guide 7

Before You Begin

Before you begin installing your system in the rack, carefully read "Safety

Instructions" on page 5, as well as the safety instructions found in your

Product Information Guide for additional information.

CAUTION: When installing multiple systems in a rack, complete all of the

procedures for the current system before attempting to install the next system.

CAUTION: Rack cabinets can be extremely heavy and move easily on their

casters. They do not have brakes. Use extreme caution while moving the rack

cabinet. Retract the leveling feet when relocating the rack cabinet. Avoid long

or steep inclines or ramps where loss of cabinet control may occur. Extend the

leveling feet for support and to prevent the cabinet from rolling.

NOTE: For instructions on installing the system itself, see "Installing the System

in the Rack" on page 17.

Important Safety Information

Observe the safety precautions in the following subsections when installing

your system in the rack.

CAUTION: You must strictly follow the procedures in this document to protect

yourself as well as others who may be involved. Your system may be very large

and heavy and proper preparation and planning are important to prevent injury

to yourself and to others. This precaution becomes increasingly important when

systems are installed high up in the rack.

CAUTION: Do not install rack kit components designed for another system. Use

only the rack kit for your system. Using the rack kit for another system may result in

damage to the system and personal injury to yourself and to others.

Rack Requirements for VersaRails

NOTICE: The VersaRails rack kit is intended to be installed by trained service

technicians in a rack that meets the specifications of American National Standards

Institute (ANSI)/Electronic Industries Association (EIA) standard ANSI/EIA-310-

D-92, International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 297, and Deutsche Industrie

Norm (DIN) 41494. One rack kit is required for each system that is installed in a rack.

8 Rack Installation Guide

Rack Stabilizer Feet

CAUTION: Before installing systems in a rack, install front and side stabilizers on

stand-alone racks or the front stabilizer on racks joined to other racks. Failure to

install stabilizers accordingly before installing systems in a rack could cause the

rack to tip over, potentially resulting in bodily injury under certain circumstances.

Therefore, always install the stabilizer(s) before installing components in the rack.

The stabilizer feet help prevent the rack from tipping over. See the

documentation provided with the rack cabinet for instructions on installing

and anchoring the stabilizer feet.

Recommended Tools and Supplies

You may need the following items to install the system in a four-post rack

cabinet:

• #2 Phillips screwdriver

• Masking tape or a felt-tip pen, for use in marking the mounting holes

to be used

Rack Kit Contents

• One pair of slide assemblies

• One cable-management arm (optional)

• One left cable-management arm ramp assembly

• One right cable-management arm ramp assembly

• One status indicator cable (if applicable)

• Eight 10-32 x 0.5-inch flange-head Phillips screws

NOTE: The nonmetric screws described in illustrations and in procedural steps are

identified by size and number of threads per inch. For example, a #10 Phillips-head

screw with 32 threads per inch is identified as a 10-32 screw.

NOTE: Both the right and left cable-management arm ramp assemblies are

illustrated in Figure 1-1. Depending on the orientation of the cable-management arm

(CMA), you will only use one ramp assembly to secure the CMA to the back of the

rack. For more information, see "Attaching the Cable-Management Arm Ramp

Assembly" on page 22.

Removing the Rack Doors

See the procedures for removing doors in the documentation provided

with your rack cabinet.

CAUTION: Because of the size and weight of the rack cabinet doors,

never attempt to remove or install them by yourself.

CAUTION: Store the doors where they will not injure someone if the doors

accidently fall over.

Marking the Rack

For a 2-U system, you must allow 2 U (88 mm, or 3.5 inches) of vertical space

for each system you install in the rack.

Rack cabinets that meet EIA-310 standards have an alternating pattern of

three holes per rack unit with center-to-center hole spacing (beginning at the

top hole of a 1-U space) of 15.9 mm, 15.9 mm, and 12.7 mm (0.625 inch,

0.625 inch, and 0.5 inch) for the front and back vertical rails (see Figure 1-2).

Rack cabinets may have round or square holes.

NOTE: The vertical rails may be marked by horizontal lines and numbers in 1-U

increments. If you want, you can make a note of the number marking on the rack’s

vertical rail. It is not necessary to mark or place tape on the rack.

Rack Installation Guide 11

Figure 1-2. One Rack Unit

CAUTION: If you are installing more than one system, install the mounting rails

so that the first system is installed in the lowest available position in the rack.

To mark the rack, perform the following steps:

1

Place a mark (or tape) on the rack's front vertical rails where you want to

locate the bottom of the system you are installing in the rack. The bottom

of each 1-U space is at the middle of the narrowest metal area between

holes (marked with a horizontal line on some rack cabinets—see

Figure 1-3).

2

Place a mark 88 mm (3.5 inches) above the original mark you made

(or count up three holes in a rack that meets EIA-310 standards) and mark

the rack's front vertical rails with a felt-tipped pen or masking tape (if you

counted holes, place a mark just above the top hole). This mark or piece of

tape indicates where the system's upper edge will be located on the vertical

rails (see Figure 1-3).

Figure 1-3. Marking the Vertical Rails

Configuring the Sliding Rail Assemblies

The sliding rail assembly has a rotating mounting bracket at each end of the

rail. The position of the bracket determines whether the rail assembly is used

as a RapidRail or a VersaRail. The RapidRail side of the bracket has a hook

and a latch that secure it to the vertical rail. The VersaRail side of the bracket

has three holes and uses screws to attach it to the vertical rail.

NOTE: The rack kit ships with the slide assemblies in the RapidRails configuration.
