Leveling the Enclosure Required tools: Phillips screwdriver Level 13-mm open-ended wrench (803-513C) Warning: The leveling feet at the corners provide a stable base if the floor is uneven, but they cannot compensate for a badly sloped surface. na1572a To adjust the leveling feet after equipment has been installed, use the 13-mm open-ended wrench (not provided).
Joining Enclosures Enclosures can be joined with or without side panels installed to provide for alignment and some stability. Caution: Joining enclosures provides limited stability to the enclosures. 1. Remove the front and rear doors. 2. Choose between 24-in centers or 600-mm centers (see the detail view below). 3. Align the enclosures and join them using one M5 x 12 flat-head screw (provided in the hardware bag) per bracket—two brackets for the front and two brackets for the rear. 4. Reinstall the doors.

Securing the Enclosure For additional stabilization, secure the enclosure to the floor. Use fastener locations on the outside or inside of the enclosure, and choose from the accessories shown below. Accessory Part Number Bolt-down kit AR7701 Attaches to rack and floor internally or externally to provide additional stability without blocking cable access. NetShelter SX stabilizer plate AR7700 Attaches externally to the rack and floor to provide additional stability.
Grounding the Enclosure Each enclosure should be grounded directly to the building ground using one of the designated grounding locations (two M6 threaded inserts) at the top or bottom of the enclosure. • Use a Common Bonding Network Jumper kit (for example, Listed [KDER] Panduit® RGCBNJ660PY or equivalent). • Use paint-piercing washers between ground terminal and enclosure frame or remove paint on frame under ground terminals per NEC NFPA 70 Article 250.12. • Torque screws to 6.9 N-m (60 in-lb).
Equipment Installation Adjusting Vertical Mounting Flanges Vertical mounting flanges come factory-installed on the enclosure in the proper position for use with rack-mountable equipment that has a depth of: • 558.8 mm (22 in) for a 1070-mm deep enclosure • 749.3 mm (29.5 in) for a 1200-mm deep enclosure The mounting flanges are adjustable towards the front or the rear of the enclosure to accommodate different rails or equipment with other depths. The flanges can be adjusted to be as close as 279.
ns0977b 2. Use the Torx T30/#2 Phillips wrench (provided) to loosen—but not remove—the three Torx screws. ns0717c 3. Lower the three flat brackets and move the mounting flange to the desired location.
4. To align the vertical mounting flanges properly, note the symbol (for example, a diamond) visible through one of the three holes on the top of the flange, and ensure that the same symbol is visible through the corresponding hole at the bottom of the flange. Only one symbol is visible at a time through any of the holes. In the factory-standard position, diamonds are visible Vertical mounting flanges placed across from each other must have the same visible symbol.
Installing Equipment Warning: To prevent the enclosure from tipping over after equipment installation: • Make sure you have secured the enclosure to the floor before installing equipment. • Install the heaviest equipment first toward the bottom of the enclosure to prevent the enclosure from becoming top-heavy. • Do not extend equipment on sliding rails until you have installed three or more pieces of similar-sized equipment or until you have installed the stabilizer plate or bolt-down brackets.
