How to Install the AR4PCACTC Rack Extension Top
This guide provides instructions for installing the AR4PCACTC rack extension top, which connects two vertical cable manager covers as part of a cold aisle containment system.
Estimated time: 30m
Tools needed:
Drill/Driver w/ T25 Torx drive bit
Supplies needed:
PR2V**CACFSTC** brush entry cable manager cover (2 required), AR4PCACTC** rack extension top (1 required), M5x0.8 x 12mm Thread forming screws (4 required), M5x0.8 x 5mm machine screws (4 required)
- Install Brush Entry Cable Manager Covers
Place each PR2V**CACFSTC** brush entry cable manager cover assembly over the top opening of its respective vertical cable manager. Align the cover assembly mount slots with the extruded holes on the front to back cable manager door hinge channels (two holes per side). Install the M5x0.8 x 12mm thread forming screws into the extruded holes using a drill/driver with a T25 Torx drive bit. If using a Front & Back Cable Manager, orient it so the larger side faces forward, and use only one M5 screw per side of the Cable Manager.
- Position Rack Extension Top
Place the AR4PCACTC** rack extension top in front of the top area of the AR4P rack. Position it between the two PR2V**CACFSTC** covers that were previously installed. Ensure the short flange on the rack extension cover is oriented over the cable manager door.
- Secure Rack Extension Top
Align the mount slots on the AR4PCACTC** rack extension top with the tapped holes located on the top of the vertical manager covers (two holes per side). Install the M5x0.8 x 5mm machine screws into the tapped holes using a drill/driver with a T25 Torx drive bit to secure the rack extension top firmly in place.
