    UPS Setup The Dell Line-Interactive Rack UPS can be installed in 19-inch racks and needs only 2U of valuable rack space (3U for 2700/2300W UPS models). NOTE: No tools are needed to attach the rack rails to a round- or square-hole EIA rack.
  • Page 20 Unclip the right battery connector and move the connector out of the way. Pull the battery tray out using the plastic tabs and remove the battery tray (see Figure 13). Figure 13. Removing the Battery Tray If installing additional UPSs, repeat Step 1 for each cabinet. NOTE: The instructions are the same for square-hole racks and unthreaded, round-hole racks.
  • Page 21 Attach the rails to the rack: Engage the back end of the rail until it fully seats on the vertical rack flange and the hook latch locks in place (see Figure 14). Pull the rail toward the front. Push the front end of the rail until it fully seats on the vertical rack flange and the hook latch locks in place.
  • Page 22 Slide the cabinet into the rack (see Figure 15). Repeat for any additional cabinets. Figure 15. Installing the Cabinet Secure the front of the cabinet to the rack using the four thumbscrews on the mounting brackets (see Figure 16). Tighten by hand; do not use power tools. Repeat for any additional cabinets. Figure 16.
