How to Install Panduit PANZONE Overhead Distribution Racks (PZLRB2UWH Series)
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for assembling and mounting the Panduit PANZONE Overhead Distribution Racks (PZLRB2UWH, PZLRB4UWH, PZLRB6UWH) onto various overhead structures such as ladder racks, cable trays, or wire grids.
Estimated time: 1h
Tools needed:
Wrench, Screwdriver
Supplies needed:
PZLRB Main Bracket (1), Rectangular Mounting Brackets (2), "L" Shaped Mounting Brackets (2), 1/4-20 Carriage bolts (4), 1/4-20 Carriage nuts (4), 1/4-20 Screws (4)
- Assemble the PZLRB Main Bracket with Mounting Brackets
Connect the PZLRB Main Bracket to the Rectangular Mounting Brackets using the provided 1/4-20 screws. Attach the "L" Shaped Mounting Brackets to the assembly as required for your chosen mounting configuration. Ensure all initial connections are finger-tight to allow for later adjustment.
- Position Mounting Brackets for Installation
Determine your desired mounting orientation (e.g., on a ladder rack, cable tray, or wire grid, and whether above, below, side, parallel, or perpendicular). Refer to the specific configuration diagrams in the product documentation (e.g., Section V for general positioning, or Sections I, II, III for specific structure types) to align the Rectangular and "L" Shaped Mounting Brackets. For some configurations, initially tighten the brackets on one side of the main bracket, and only finger-tighten the other set to facilitate sliding and locking into position on the support structure.
- Secure the PZLRB Assembly to the Overhead Structure
Mount the assembled PZLRB unit onto your chosen overhead structure (Ladder Rack, Cable Tray, or Wire Grid). Slide or position the brackets to lock into place on the support structure. Adjust all mounting brackets to their proper final positions. Secure the entire assembly firmly to the overhead structure using the provided 1/4-20 carriage bolts and nuts. Ensure all connections are fully tightened.
- Ground the PANZONE Rack
For safety and proper operation, ground the PANZONE Overhead Distribution Rack. Refer to the common bonding network jumper kit (Part Number RGCBNJ-3P, typically sold separately) for recommended grounding procedures and components.
