  • Page 12: Stacking Kit

    INSTALLATION—STACKING KIT, SK-1 Two or three CoolCube units are required when redundancy is critical, cooling large are- as, or high heat loads. The CAC1211 can be stacked on top of each other to produce a capacity of 24,000 or 36,000 BTUH, while maintaining the same foot print. To facilitate the stacking of the CoolCube units, a stacking kit, SK-1, is required for each additional unit.
  • Page 13 INSTALLATION—RACK MOUNTING KIT, RCK-1 The 19-Inch Rack Kit allows for the Cool Cube to be installed into any EIA-310-D 4-Post of 2-Post rack enclosure. The kit includes (2) heavy duty rails (4) side mounting brackets and a rear mounting rail. The rails have a vibration dampening foam layer secured to the top for noise reduction.
