Selecting Installation Site - Tripp Lite AG-01A2 Series Owner's Manual

2. Installation and Setup

Selecting Installation Site

To minimize the possibility of damage to the battery bank and extend the life of the batteries, follow the instructions below:
1. Maintain at least 8 inches (20 cm) clearance between the unit's rear panel and a wall (or other obstructions).
2. Do not block airflow to the unit's ventilation openings.
3. Ensure the installation site environmental conditions are in accordance with the unit's working specifications to avoid overheating and/or
excessive moisture.
4. Do not place the unit in a dusty or corrosive environment or near any flammable objects.
5. This unit is not designed for outdoor use.
Battery Pack Placement
Use the casters to move the battery pack for a short distance over a level, smooth, stable surface by pushing it from the front or rear (not
the side panels). Do not attempt to roll the unit over long distances. The battery pack should be moved close to its installation location
inside its shipping container before it is unpacked. (Use a forklift or pallet jack to move the shipping container.)
WARNING: Do not push or pull the battery cabinet by the side panels.
Leveling
1
After the battery pack has been moved to the installation location, use a
carpenter's level to check the slope of the floor. If the floor slopes more than
1%, choose an alternate installation site.
2 Use an 18 mm open-end wrench to lower each leveler until it reaches the floor.
Make sure each leveler is in firm contact with the floor.
Note: Lower a leveler by turning it clockwise; raise a leveler by turning it counter-
clockwise
3
After lowering each leveler, use the carpenter's level to confirm the enclosure
is level in all directions. Adjust the levelers as required until the battery pack is
level.
4 (Optional) To provide an additional measure of stability, you can use the
shipping brackets that secured the unit to the shipping pallet to secure
mounting points in the floor using user-supplied hardware or Tripp Lite's
SmartRack Bolt-Down Kit (Part # SR331).
