RE Series Enclosure – User Manual
Section 1. Overview
This document outlines the recommended practices for assembling and installing the RE Series
server enclosure. The standard server enclosure is a high-quality design for storage of industry-
standard (EIA/ECA-310), 19”rack-mount hardware, which includes servers, voice, data,
networking, power protection equipment, KVM, etc., which are used in the data center rooms.
19" Standing Server Rack is the ultimate solution designed and engineered for demanding data
center environments. To achieve optimum versatility within the server rack, users can set multiple
depths throughout the rack by adjustable 19”mounting rails mounted on heavy duty side supports.
Horizontally divided side panels provide ease of access and convenient post-installation
maintenance. Over 78% perforations on front and rear door enable optimum airflow within the
rack. Flat-pack option enables savings up to 60% in the transport cost and warehouse space.
Please follow the installation instructions closely; assembly should be performed using the
recommended tools.

Section 5. Configuration
Step 1. Placement
Use the casters to move the enclosure for a short distance over a level, smooth and stable
surface by pushing the unit.
Step 2. Leveling
After locating the enclosure in right place, use the leveling feet on 4 corners to level the unit on
the floor. Make sure the enclosure is leveled before attempting to install equipment.
Step 3. Grounding Connection
Make sure all the parts of the enclosure are properly bonded and grounded to the frame of the
enclosure, then connect one of the designated grounding locations (two M6 threaded inserts on
front/rear door frame) directly to your facility's earth ground connection with 8AWG wire. Do not
use the enclosure without a proper earth ground connection.
Step 4. Alignment
Align the enclosures and join them using one M5 flat-head screw (pre-installed on the door frame)
per bracket-two brackets for the front and two brackets for the rear.
Step 5. Equipment installation
Do not install any equipment until you have stabilized the unit. Install the heavier equipment first
and towards the bottom of enclosure.
Note: The square holes at the middle of each U-shaped vertical rail are numbered and also
include a small notch to aid identification. When installing equipment, use cage nut to secure
your equipment to the U-shaped vertical rail.
