10 Securing Kit Overview Installation overview Some customers require that their EMC equipment be installed to withstand significant shock and vibration. Installation of Securing Kits, in combination with adequate substrate construction, can mitigate collateral damage during such events. The Securing Kits contain heavy floor and top brackets for the system bays. The floor brackets are attached to the floor using bolts that engage the flooring substructure within the computer room or data center. The top brackets secure the tops of adjacent bays. Securing Kits can be installed on system bays without lifting the bays.

18 Securing Kit Overview Hole drilling requirements Installing floor brackets requires the drilling of holes that affix the floor brackets directly to a raised or non raised floor. When drilling holes: Remove system bay doors for easier access. To maximize pullout force and transverse stability, EMC recommends securing all brackets, and all holes within each bracket. Make sure the floor can be drilled without compromising its strength. It may be necessary to reinforce the floor. Contact the flooring contractor/supplier or building engineer to determine the best way to proceed. Raised floors do not offer significant resistive strength. On a raised floor, the anchor bolts should go through the raised floor and be tied using cables and turnbuckles, or fastened directly with high strength threaded fasteners into the subfloor or super structure on the subfloor. Note One method to locate the holes accurately is to mount the anchor brackets loosely to the system bays, using the instructions in the following sections. Mark the hole locations in pencil, and then remove the brackets and drill the holes. Drilled holes should be of 1/2-inch diameter (1.27cm) or larger. If you are mounting the system bays on a nonraised floor, the diameter of the holes must be large enough to take 1/2-inch threaded inserts. Install the inserts in the manner recommended by the manufacturer. EMC recommends a proprietary fastening system, such as HILTI, for use on nonraised floors. For a raised-floor installation, drill the holes 5/8-inch (1.59cm) diameter. This size allows for any tolerance buildup in the hole pattern. 18 Securing Kit Installation Guide For: VMAX3 Family: VMAX 100K, 200K, 400K VMAX All Flash: 250F, 450F, 850F

Repeat step 1 through step 4 to secure additional bays. 7. When all front and rear brackets are installed, attach a left/right bracket to each side of the outer bays using three 3/8 ID flat washers and three 3/8-16X1.5L hex cap screws, as shown in the previous image. 8. Align one T-bracket with the installation holes at the top of each two bays to be connected, as shown in the following image.
