Anchoring a seismic cabinet using an inside-mount
anchoring kit
Anchor a seismic cabinet using an inside-mount anchoring kit it to achieve
NEBS compliance and to keep the brackets isolated from the floor for
additional grounding protection.
Prerequisites
• You need an inside mount anchoring kit with PEC NTFN98.
Procedure steps
1 Drill the holes for each of the anchors. Use a roto hammer drill and 18 mm
masonry drill bit to drill the holes. (The outside diameter of the anchor is
0.680
in.) Wear safety goggles when you drill the holes.
2 Clean each hole thoroughly with a vacuum cleaner.
3 Move the cabinet as close to its final position as possible.
4 Tip the cabinet and remove the casters and levellers from the bottom of
the cabinet. You need at least one person to support the cabinet while
another person removes the casters and levellers.
5 Bolt the brackets to the outside of the front and back of the cabinet using
the eight bolts provided. See
“Anchoring a seismic cabinet using an
inside-mount anchoring kit” (page 205).
Ensure that the brackets curve under the cabinet.
6 Carefully slide the cabinet into position.
