Vertiv VSBK6-8 Variable Spacer KIT FOR Racks 6 TO 8 IN

Overview

The Vertiv VSBK6-8 is a variable spacer ganging kit designed to precisely adjust and maintain the floor spacing between adjacent racks, specifically within a 6 to 8-inch range. This accessory is critical for ensuring proper airflow and structural integrity when integrating vertical cable management (VCM) systems or baffles, particularly in dense data center or network closet environments. It ensures consistent rack alignment, preventing gaps that compromise cooling efficiency or create installation conflicts.

Compatibility

This VSBK6-8 kit is engineered to work with Vertiv VCM (Vertical Channel Manager) and VCMX (Recessed Vertical Channel Manager) systems, as well as Vertiv baffles (4PBK12, 4PBK1624, 4PBK2436). It is used to maintain proper floor spacing between racks when these components are installed, ensuring a cohesive and functional rack infrastructure. The variable adjustment from 6 to 8 inches allows for flexibility in rack placement and alignment.

Installation Notes

Installation involves securing the kit to the rack frame to establish the desired spacing. The kit is designed to interface with Vertiv's VCM and baffle mounting points, ensuring a clean integration. Proper alignment of adjacent racks is required before final tightening of the spacer components. Consult the Vertiv rack system documentation for detailed installation procedures and recommended torque values for optimal stability.
