IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
General Safety
DANGER! YOU MUST FOLLOW APPROVED SAFETY PROCEDURES.
Performing the following procedures may expose you to hazards. These procedures should be
performed by qualified technicians familiar with the hazards associated with this type of equipment.
These hazards may include shock, energy, and/or burns. To avoid these hazards:
a) The tasks should be performed in the order indicated.
b) Remove watches, rings, and other metal objects.
c) Prior to contacting any uninsulated surface or termination, use a voltmeter to verify that no voltage or
the expected voltage is present. Check for voltage with both AC and DC voltmeters prior to making
contact.
d) Wear eye protection.
e) Use certified and well maintained insulated tools. Use double insulated tools appropriately rated for the
work to be performed.
DC Voltages
DANGER! This system has DC voltage connected to it. Although the DC voltage is not hazardously
high, the associated rectifiers and/or battery can deliver large amounts of current. Exercise extreme
caution not to inadvertently contact or have any tool inadvertently contact an input or output terminal or
exposed wire connected to an input or output terminal. NEVER allow a metal object, such as a tool, to
contact more than one termination at a time, or to simultaneously contact a termination and a grounded
object. Even a momentary short circuit can cause sparking, explosion, and injury.
DANGER! Follow local lockout/tagout procedures to ensure DC branch circuit protection devices
remain de-energized during installation at loads, as required.

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
DANGER! ARC FLASH AND SHOCK HAZARD.
Appropriate PPE and tools required when working on this equipment. An appropriate flash protection
boundary analysis should be done determine the “hazard/risk” category, and to select proper PPE.
This product is intended only for installation in a Restricted Access Location.
Only authorized and properly trained personnel should be allowed to install, inspect, operate, or maintain
the equipment.
Do not work on LIVE parts. If required to work or operate live parts, obtain appropriate Energized Work
Permits as required by the local authority, per NFPA 70E “Standard for Electrical Safety in the
Workplace”.
Handling Equipment Containing Static Sensitive Components
ALERT! Installation or removal of equipment containing static sensitive components requires careful
handling. Before handling any equipment containing static sensitive components, read and follow the
instructions contained on the Static Warning Page.
Maintenance and Replacement Procedures
CAUTION! When performing any step in procedures that requires removal or installation of hardware,
use caution to ensure no hardware is dropped and left inside the unit; otherwise service interruption or
equipment damage may occur.
NOTE! When performing any step in procedures that requires removal of existing hardware, retain all
hardware for use in subsequent steps, unless otherwise directed.

STATIC WARNING
This equipment contains static sensitive components. The warnings listed below must be observed to
prevent damage to these components. Disregarding any of these warnings may result in personal injury
or damage to the equipment.
1. Strictly adhere to the procedures provided in this document.
2. Before touching any equipment containing static sensitive components, discharge all static electricity
from yourself by wearing a wrist strap grounded through a one megohm resistor. Some wrist straps
have a built-in one megohm resistor; no external resistor is necessary. Read and follow wrist strap
manufacturer’s instructions outlining use of a specific wrist strap.
3. Do not touch traces or components on equipment containing static sensitive components. Handle
equipment containing static sensitive components only by the edges that do not have connector pads.
4. After removing equipment containing static sensitive components, place the equipment only on
conductive or anti-static material such as conductive foam, conductive plastic, or aluminum foil. Do not
use ordinary Styrofoam™ or ordinary plastic.
5. Store and ship equipment containing static sensitive components only in static shielding containers.
6. If necessary to repair equipment containing static sensitive components, wear an appropriately
grounded wrist strap, work on a conductive surface, use a grounded soldering iron, and use grounded
test equipment.

NetSure™-48 VDC Power Distribution System Installation and User Manual
•Installation and User Instructions: UM582140600
•System Application Guide: SAG582140600
•Engineering Drawings
•Contact Information Page: Section 4154
NetSure™Monitor Unit User Manual

your system.
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
-48 VDC Power Distribution System
The NetSure™ 8100DB DC Power Distribution System is a -48 VDC Battery Distribution Fuse / Circuit Breaker
Bay (BDF/CBB).
•The NetSure™ 8100DB can be ordered as an 8-distribution panel or 6-distribution panel bay (4 or 3
panels per side).
•Each distribution panel can be configured for separate inputs giving you an 8-load or 6-load bay, or the
panels per side can be paralleled to allow one to four feeds per side giving you a 2-load bay (may use
the optional internal ground/return bar). Other configurations include an 8-panel bay with 4-loads and
two loads, and a 6-panel bay with 4-loads (paralleling the top two panels
or
paralleling the bottom two
panels per side).
•Each bay can be equipped with an optional “full bay length” internal ground/return bar (per side).
Another option includes replacing one (8- and 6-panel bays) or two (8-panel bay only) distribution
panels per side with a “panel length” internal ground/return bar.
•Each bay can easily be configurable for top or bottom feed.
•Each bay is equipped with a monitor unit. The monitor unit provides local and remote access to data
and alarms for the voltage, current, power, and energy delivered through the distribution bay. The
monitor unit contains a color TFT display and keypad for local access. The monitor unit provides an
Ethernet port and comes with comprehensive webpages for remote access. The monitor unit can also
be accessed via SNMP (v2 and v3), TL1 (over Ethernet), or MODBUS for remote system management.
The monitor unit supports software upgrade via its USB port. A machine-to-machine HTTP interface is
also available. Refer to the monitor unit instructions (UM1M832DNA) for more information.

Vertiv |NetSure 8100 Series Installation & User Manual (UM582140600)|Rev. A
10
Each bay includes an SM-DUE. The SM-DUE sends information to the monitor unit and the monitor unit
monitors and displays load voltage, load current, and fuse alarm / circuit breaker alarm status of each
distribution panel in the bay.
The advanced distribution panels are equipped with an SM-DUH2. The SM-DUH2 sends information to
the monitor unit and the monitor unit additionally displays load voltage, load current, and fuse alarm /
circuit breaker alarm status of each distribution device in the advanced distribution panel.
Also provided in each bay is an IB2 (interface board) connected to the monitor unit. The IB2 board
provides four (4) programmable form C- relay outputs.
•Choices of distribution panels is a panel that accepts TPS / TLS and TPL-B fuses and a panel that
accepts bullet nose type circuit breakers and/or bullet nose type TPS / TLS fuseholders. The bullet
nose type distribution panel is available in a standard configuration or an advanced configuration. The
standard configuration allows for monitoring the panel as one unit. The advance configuration also
allows for monitoring each individual distribution device on the panel.
Refer to SAG582140600 (System Application Guide) for additional information.
INSTALLATION ACCEPTANCE CHECKLIST
Provided in this section is an Installation Acceptance Checklist. This checklist helps ensure proper installation
and initial operation of the system. As the procedures presented in this document are completed, check the
