    and ramps to a raised computer room floor. Move the cabinet slowly and deliberately, and make sure that the floor is free from foreign objects and cables that the cabinet could roll over. WARNING! To avoid injury, wear protective footwear when moving equipment. Warning about moving parts Even though customers do not install or maintain equipment, these guidelines are provided to prevent possible injury when working with authorized service personnel.

    3 Installation requirements Safety requirements Safety requirements and guidelines are covered in “Safety requirements” (page General site requirements The customer site must accommodate the delivery and movement of the equipment from the receiving dock to the installation location in the data center. Equipment clearances Receiving area: The receiving dock, storage area, and receiving area must be large enough to allow movement of and access to crated or packed equipment.

  • Page 11: Equipment Weight

    Equipment weight The floors, elevators, and ramps must be able to support the weight of the delivered equipment as it is moved to the installation location. Spreader plates may be required to distribute the load and protect the floor as the equipment is moved from the receiving area to the installation location. Consult the system bill of materials to establish the anticipated summary weights.
