About this guide
Rack options installation guide
This installation guide includes the instructions for installing rack option kits that are compatible with the HP
Advanced Series Racks and HP Enterprise Series Racks.
For more information, see the HP Advanced Series Racks User Guide or the HP Enterprise Series Racks User
Guide on the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/rackandpower).
Important safety information
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, be sure that:
•The rear leveling feet are extended to the floor.
•The full weight of the rack rests on the rear leveling feet and front stabilizer feet.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the rack and equipment, the
racks must be positioned and secured together according to these instructions. Failure to do so
could result in an unstable installation.
WARNING: Components can be very heavy. To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to
the equipment:
•Remove all pluggable power supplies
and modules to reduce the weight of the product before
lifting it.
•Observe local occupational health and safety requirements and guidelines for manual
material handling.
•Get help to lift and stabilize the product during installation or removal, especially when the
product is not fastened to the rails. When the component weighs more than 22.5 kg (50 lb),
at least two people must lift the component into the rack together. If the component is loaded
into the rack above chest level, a third person must assist i
n aligning the rails while the other
two support the component.
•
Use caution when installing the component in or removing the component from the rack; it is
unstable when not fastened to the rails.

Preparing the sliding shelf rail assemblies for
installation
Each sliding shelf rail assembly consists of a rail with fixed brackets attached to a sliding rail. To construct the
sliding shelf rail assemblies:
1. Hold the flat side of the left rail with fixed brackets facing toward you.
2. Place the sliding rail on top of the left rail with fixed brackets.

100 Kilo Sliding Shelf kit 13
3. Extend the inner slides of the sliding rail until the screw holes on the sliding rail and the left rail with fixed
brackets are aligned. Gently push down on the sliding rail to lock it into place.
4. Secure the rails together with two M4 x 12 flat HD screws and M4 external washers.
5. Repeat steps 1 through 4 for the right rail with fixed brackets.
Installing the sliding shelf rail assemblies
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to
the equipment, be sure to secure
mounted rack components when moving the rack.
You must install the sliding shelf rail assemblies before installing the sliding shelf. Follow these steps closely
to install the sliding shelf rail assemblies into the rack:

100 Kilo Sliding Shelf kit 14
1. Use the template on the front and rear of the rack frame to mark the attachment points for the sliding
shelf rail assemblies, by measuring from the top of the component installed below the desired position
for the sliding shelf.
IMPORTANT: When using the template on the rear of the rack frame, mark the rack at the top of
the template to help align the next rack component.
2. Align and secure the rear of the left sliding shelf rail assembly to the rear of the rack frame with two M6
x 12 pan HD screws and M6 external washers.

100 Kilo Sliding Shelf kit 15
3. Secure the front of the left sliding shelf rail assembly to the front of the rack frame with two M6 x 12 pan
HD screws and M6 external washers.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to install the right sliding shelf rail assembly.
Installing the sliding shelf
1. Move the sliding shelf into the rack while tilting the front of the shelf up. Align the rear notches on the
sliding shelf over the rear tabs on the sliding shelf rail assemblies.
2. Push the sliding shelf down onto the rear tabs to align the front notches on the sliding shelf with the front
tabs on the sliding shelf rail assemblies.
3. Lower the front of the sliding shelf over the tabs on the front of the sliding shelf rail assemblies and push
down gently to lock the shelf into place.

100 Kilo Sliding Shelf kit 16
4. Secure the sliding shelf to each sliding rail using one M4 x 12 flat HD screw and M4 external washer
with one M4 nut on the inside of the shelf.
5. Attach the cable management arm to the sliding shelf with the flat side of the cable management arm
mounting bracket flush with the sliding shelf.
6. Secure the cable management arm to the sliding shelf using two M4 x 12 flat HD screws and M4
external washers with two M4 nuts on the inside of the shelf.
NOTE: The cable management arm attaches to the rear of the sliding shelf on either the right or
left side.

100 Kilo Sliding Shelf kit 17
7. Secure the opposite end of the cable management arm to the rack using two M6 x 12 pan HD screws
and M6 external washers.
Installation is complete.
Using the 100 Kilo Sliding Shelf
Use the handle on the front of the sliding shelf to slide it in and out of the rack. When sliding the shelf back
into the rack, there may be resistance. Apply pressure as needed to fully move the shelf into the rack.
IMPORTANT:
Be sure to secure all rack mount system components when moving the shelf out of
the rack.

Air Duct kit 18
Air Duct kit
About this device
The Air Duct kit removes warm air from the HP 42U 600x1200mm Enterprise Air Duct Rack and the HP 47U
600x1200mm Enterprise Air Duct Rack by channeling the warm air into the data center ceiling return air
plenum. The air duct sits on top of the rack, which is directly joined to the ceiling plenum. The air duct position
prevents the warm air from entering the data center aisle.
This kit is required for the HP Air Duct Enterprise Series Racks BW910A and BW936A.
