This Rack Mounting Kit can be used to mount the S-AIT 
library in an EIA Standard 19-inch rack (Universal 
pitch). For installation instructions, contact Sony 
Service Support Center. (Charges apply.)

Do not remove any screws other than those indicated 
in this manual. Doing so may cause the S-AIT library 
to fall, resulting in personal injury or damage to the 
S-AIT library.
With a single drive installed, the S-AIT library 
weighs approximately 27 kg / 59.5 lbs. (With two 
drives installed, the S-AIT library weighs 
approximately 31 kg / 68.3 lbs.)
At least two people are needed in order to handle the 
library. Handling the S-AIT library on your own 
could result in back injury or other accidents 
resulting in injury or damage to the S-AIT library.
Before beginning work, always press the power 
switch on the rear to turn the power off, and then 
disconnect all the cables.

• When you install the L-shaped brackets or inner rails 

to the library, you must use the supplied A screws (B4 
x 5). Using any of the other supplied screws may lead 
to damage.

• You can install this kit on a frame with 700 to 850 mm 

(28 to 34 in.) in internal width. If your rack is larger 
than this, you cannot use this kit.

• Because the S-AIT library is compatible with 

universal pitch racks, you can use this kit on such 
racks, but not on wide pitch racks.

• You cannot install the S-AIT library side brackets on a 

frame with square screw holes or holes smaller than 9 
mm (0.4 in.) in diameter.

The following tools are needed in order to mount the 
Rack Mounting Kit:
• Philips screwdriver

Check the following points before mounting the S-AIT 
library in a rack.
• Install the library in an operating environment with a 

temperature range of 10 to 35 °C, and a humidity 
range of 20 to 80 %. We recommend installing the 
library in an indoor location where the temperature is 
maintained between 15 and 25 °C.

• When installing the library, keep cables and other 

obstructions away from the area around the import/
export slot on the front and the fan and the ventilation 
holes on the rear of the library.

• When the library is mounted in a rack, the balance of 

the rack could be affected and the rack could tip over.  
To prevent this from happening, we recommend 
securing the rack with brackets that are designed to 
keep it from tipping over.

• Confirm that the correct power is being supplied to all 

of the equipment in the rack.

• Confirm that the power outlet and power cord that you 

are using are properly grounded.

• When installing the Rack Mounting Kit, take all 

precautions necessary in order to prevent electrostatic 
discharge while work is in progress, including using 
anti-static mats and wristbands.

After opening the package, make sure that all of the 
following items are present.  Contact your dealer if 
anything is missing.
