Preparing for Installation
The procedures for mounting the unit(s) in a rack are described in this chapter and consist of 3 main
steps: (A) Preparing the Rack Rail Assemblies and positioning them before mounting them in a Rack,
(B) Preparing the unit(s) to be mounted, and (C) Mounting the unit(s) into the rack.
The StorageLibrary unit is designed for use in a 19” rack system, using 4U of rack space and special
rack mount rail assemblies. It is also designed to operate in a horizontal position. Do not attempt to
operate the StorageLibrary in any other position than horizontally. Also make sure that:
• The airflow around the front and back of the StorageLibrary is not obstructed.
• There is a minimum of 60 cm (24 inch) free space in front of the unit to allow the operator to safely
remove the magazines.
• The display and operator controls can easily be accessed.
• The StorageLibrary is away from the floor and in a clean environment, with temperatures within
defined specifications. For specifications and safety information, see Specifications and Safety
and Regulatory Information.
• The length of the power cord and the primary interface cables restrict the placement.
Please make sure that the Rack Mounting Kit contains the following items:
• Two Rack Mount Ears
• One Left Rail Assembly
• One Right Rail Assembly
• Four Rack Installation Stencils.
• Eight M3x4 Screws.
• Two M6x12 Pan Head Screws
• Eight M6x12 Countersink Screws.
Installing one or more StorageLibrary Product(s) in a Rack
The purpose of these instructions is to help you mount the StorageLibrary T40+ Series / Pass-Thru
system correctly into a rack, using the special rack assemblies included with the unit(s). Follow the
same mounting instructions and drawings when increasing the number of units from 2 to 3, or 3 to 4,
and so on. The correct vertical distance in the rack, between pairs of units, is obtained by using a
special rack installation stencil. This stencil allows the rail mounting screws to only pass thru its
punched holes.
Steps 1 to 4 are identical for both the stand-alone and the Pass-Thru option. For the steps explaining
the preparation of the unit(s) (steps 4-14), the text description will differ between the stand-alone
option and the Pass-Thru option.
STEP A: RAIL MOUNTING INTO A RACK
1) Position the rack installation stencil on the rack in 4 places as shown in Figure 4 and
Figure 6. The two rear stencils are optional. The stencils must be positioned on the
rack at the same vertical distance from the bottom of the rack.
(NOTE: The holes in a standard rack are NOT evenly distributed. Make sure that the holes in the stencil
fully match the hole-set, see
Figure 5. Also make sure that the stencil is placed with the single hole
downwards, and the double hole upwards).
