Storage System Rack Kit
Installation Guide
This guide provides instructions for installing a rack kit and a PowerVault 130T system
in a Dell rack. One PowerVault 130T rack kit is required for each PowerVault 130T sys-
tem installed in the rack. The PowerVault 130T rack kit includes the following items
(see Figure 1-1):
•One pair of adjustable mounting rails
•Eight 10-32 x 0.5-inch counter-sink Phillips-head screws
•Eight #10 formed-metal washers
•Four 10-32 cage nuts
•Four 10-32 x 0.5-inch flanged Phillips-head screws
•One cage nut tool
NOTE: The screws called out in illustrations and procedural steps are identified first by
size and then by the number of threads per inch. For example, a #10 counter-sink
Phillips-head screw with 32 threads per inch is identified as a 10-32 screw.

Installing the PowerVault 130T Kit
Use the following procedure to install the PowerVault 130T system rack kit in the rack:
1. Remove the doors from the rack.
2. Install the adjustable mounting rails in the rack.
NOTE: If you purchased a Dell rack along with your PowerVault 130T system, the
mounting rails are preinstalled in the rack.
3. Install the cage nuts in the rack.
4. Install the PowerVault 130T system.
5. Replace the doors.
The subsections that follow include instructions for performing these tasks.
Removing the Doors From the Rack
You must remove the front and back doors from the rack to provide access to the inte-
rior of the rack and to prevent damage to the doors while installing the kit. Use the
following procedure to remove the doors.
WARNING: To prevent personal injury due to the size and weight of the
doors, never attempt to remove the doors by yourself.
1. Open the latch on the front door (see Figure 1-2).
Slide the latch’s push button cover up as far as it will go, press the push button,
rotate the handle clockwise until the latch releases, and then pull the door open.

2. Remove the front door as shown in Figure 1-3:
a. One person should grasp the top of the door to stabilize it. The other person
should grasp the bottom of the door.
b. The person holding the bottom of the door should press the hinge release
lever on the bottom hinge and then pull the bottom of the door away from
the rack a few inches.

3. Perform steps 1 and 2 to remove the back door from the rack.
Store the two doors where they will not injure someone if they accidentally fall over.
Installing the Adjustable Mounting Rails in the Rack
Use the following procedure to install the adjustable mounting rails in the rack:
1. Determine where you want to install the adjustable mounting rails.
In the Dell rack, the vertical rails are marked by small indentations in 1-U
(1.75-inch) increments. Determine where to install the adjustable mounting rails
in the rack and mark the locations of the vertical rail indentation on the rack’s ver-
tical rails with a felt-tipped marker or masking tape.
2. Install the adjustable mounting rails in the rack:
a. Insert the rail’s mounting-bracket flange behind the rack’s vertical rail (as
shown in Figure 1-4) at the front and back of the rack.

b. At the front of the rack, vertically position the mounting-bracket flange so
that its holes are aligned with the holes in the vertical rail (see Figure 1-4).
Secure the mounting-bracket flange with two 10-32 x 0.5-inch counter-sink
Phillips-head screws and two #10 formed-metal washers.
c. At the back of the rack, vertically position the mounting-bracket flange so
that its two holes are aligned with the holes in the vertical rail. Secure the
mounting-bracket flange with two 10-32 x 0.5-inch counter-sink Phillips-head
screws and two #10 formed-metal washers.
