4. Attach the lifting chain to the lifting ears located in the top of the enclosure. Verify the
adjustable chain links are tightened securely. Also verify the length of the cable between
the liftng ears and the lifting hook (2d) is at least twice the distance (d) between the lifting
ears, and that the lifting angle of the chain is greater than or equal to 60 degrees.
Installation Procedure:
1. Unbolt the enclosure from the pallet. The bolts fastening the enclosure to the pallet are
located in the feet of the rack/rail assembly. They can be reached through the front and
rear doors of the enclosure or battery module (if applicable).
2. Remove the side chamber cable entry port seal plate (if equipped).
. Position the 25-year vapor barrier material over the concrete pad, and make all
necessary cutouts.
Remove the lifting ears after installation. The ears are made of steel and may rust over time.
NOTE:
WARNING!
Do not lift the enclosure with the batteries in place.
