BA35X-VA Vertical Mounting Kit User's Guide

This document is the "BA35X-VA Vertical Mounting Kit User's Guide," published in November 1992. It is intended for personnel responsible for configuring, installing, and using BA350 DECstor/me modular storage shelf subsystems.

The manual describes:

• Product Description: The BA35X-VA is a floor-mounted stand that encloses DECstor/me modular storage shelves. It comes in single and double versions (the latter made of two joined kits) for different shelf types (BA350-SA and BA350-EA, respectively). It highlights that kits are shipped fully assembled and require no tools for initial setup.
• Configuration Rules: Guidelines for installing shelves (e.g., one BA350-SA per single kit, one BA350-EA per double kit), power supply orientation (at the bottom, slot 7), reservation of slot 6 for redundant power or battery backup, and limits on connecting multiple kits to a single power source. It also provides a recommended installation sequence for System Building Blocks (SBBs) for stability.
• AC Power Distribution: Details the types of AC distribution units used in the kits and lists country-specific power cords with their electrical specifications.
• Replacement Procedures: Step-by-step instructions for replacing System Building Blocks (SBBs), blowers, and entire shelves, including important safety warnings regarding power disconnection and the need for qualified service personnel for specific tasks.
