LIEBERT® VNSA™ FRONT OF Liebert vNSA (Liebert iCOM model shown) Installation Sheet Description The Liebert vNSA network switch is designed for connecting multiple Ethernet-ready devices and comes in various models. The unit may have: • A Liebert iCOM® display mounted on the front, as shown at right. Liebert iCOM models permit interconnecting cooling units that are equipped with Liebert iCOM controls, allowing the units to communicate. • One or two 8-port switches, providing a total of 8 or 16 Ethernet ports. The example below shows a model with two 8-port switches. The number of ports available varies by model (see Table 1 for details). All models have a power supply that requires connection, as shown below.

The switch supports Ethernet 10 Mbps and Fast Ethernet 100 Mbps using twisted-pair RJ45 ports, allowing connection of Ethernet-ready devices. The devices support switched Ethernet networks in accordance with IEEE standard 802.3. Three automatic features—autonegotiation, autopolarity and autocrossing—allow the use of standard network cables (CAT5 or better) for connection to each port, rather than a special crossover cable. The switch detects and makes adjustments for the network’s speed and transmission mode, polarity and transmit-andreceive pins. Refer to the Industrial Rail Switch user manual for more details. Connecting Devices Use CAT5 or better network patch cables with RJ45 connectors to connect devices to available ports. Number of Ports Available The number of ports available for Ethernet-ready devices varies by model, as shown in Table 1. • Models with the Liebert iCOM display use one port for connection to the Liebert iCOM display. • Models with two switches use two ports to interconnect the switches.

Refer to the Liebert iCOM user manual for additional details on connecting Liebert cooling products. 3 Connect Power to the Liebert vNSA The Liebert vNSA requires AC power (100-240VAC single phase) for proper operation. A universal power supply (12V, 1.5A) is installed inside the enclosure, with a hard-wired connection for 120V or 230V operation. ! WARNING Risk of electric shock. Can cause injury or death. Disconnect all local and remote electric power supplies before working within. NOTICE The Liebert vNSA is designed for use on properly grounded (earthed) 100-240VAC singlephase power, 50Hz or 60Hz. The ground wire for the power lead must be wired to the earth ground terminal (stud located next to the universal power supply). This equipment is intended to be installed by a qualified and certified electrician who must review and approve customer supplied wiring and circuit breakers, verify correct input and grounded (earthed) connections to ensure compliance with technical standards and national and local electrical codes. NOTE The connector must be unplugged prior to installation. A field-supplied power cord may be used in place of the hardwire adapter provided. Power Supply Wiring Instructions 1.

The enclosure is made of metal to accommodate secure conduit fittings and protect components against environmental debris. 14.25" (361.95mm) The enclosure is designed for easy wire routing and terminations. Access slots for network cables and power wiring are located on both the top and bottom of the enclosure. 12" (304.8mm) The enclosure is 3.3" (84mm) deep, allowing for recess mounting in a wall. The enclosure may also be surfacemounted. The enclosure houses the power supply and one or two 8-port rail switches. Some models have a Liebert iCOM display mounted on the front of the enclosure. FRONT VIEW (all models) Enclosure Mounting Considerations The Liebert vNSA must be installed indoors. The enclosure must be secured to a wall, either mounted on the surface of a wall or recessed with the front flush against a wall. The method of mounting depends on the application, the location of equipment to be monitored and the type of wall the enclosure will be mounted on. • The Liebert vNSA should be mounted where it can be easily accessed. • The site must have electrical service and must permit routing of network cables to the unit’s RJ45 ports. • The wall material must be capable of supporting the weight of the Liebert vNSA: see Specifications on page 8. 6 3.3" (84mm) TOP/BOTTOM VIEW (vNSA8 & vNSA16 models) 7/8" (22mm) 4.175" (106mm) TOP/BOTTOM VIEW (Liebert iCOM models) Surface Mounting NOTE Removing the conduit knockouts before mounting the Liebert vNSA on the wall will ease installation and prevent strain on the mounting hardware and wall. After determining where to place the enclosure, check to ensure that you have all the hardware required to install the panel on the surface of a wall. Obtain the needed tools and material. Required Tools • • • • Electric drill (if surface is too hard to drive screws without pilot holes) Screwdriver Marker to denote layout of holes Four screws, each #10 Mounting the Panel NOTICE Check building plans and other relevant documents to determine whether mounting the Liebert vNSA at the selected location might cause cutting or otherwise damaging electrical or communication wiring or pipes. 1. Mark the wall for mounting holes, using the back of the unit as a template (see Figure 2). Figure 2 Mounting dimensions 12-1/2" (318mm) 0.88" (22mm) 0.213" (5mm) A 10" (254mm) 0.694" (18mm) 0.375" (10mm) 1" (25mm) Back Plate (inside view) Detail “A” Mounting Slot 0.213" (5mm) (two places) 2. Drill holes, if required, to install the four #10 screws that will secure the Liebert vNSA to the wall. Clean up the debris. 3. If the wall material is not strong enough to hold the screws securely, use wall anchors. 4. Install the top two screws—the screw heads must be small enough to slip through the larger, bottom portion of the pear-shaped mounting slot in the Liebert vNSA (see Figure 2). The screws must also be large enough to extend over the edges of the top of the mounting slot. 5. Hang the Liebert vNSA on the screws, letting the panel slip down until the screws are in the smaller, upper portion of the slot. 6. Tighten the screws until they are snug. 7. Insert the remaining two screws in the bottom holes on the back of the panel and tighten. 7 Specifications vNSA16-iCOM vNSA16-iCOM-CR vNSA16-iCOM-XP vNSA8-iCOM vNSA8-iCOM-CR vNSA8-iCOM-XP MODEL Power vNSA8 / vNSA16 100-240VAC, single-phase, 47-63 Hz, 0.4A Dimensions, W x D x H - in.
