  1. Seismic rated enclosures

  2. Seismic Rated Enclosures Earthquakes are not limited to the state of California, nor are they infrequent. Seismic events take place every day throughout much of the continental United States. What does that have to do with Us? In many cases, millions of dollars worth of technology depend on the quality and installation method of the rack that it is stored in. I should have used an Emcor rack.

  3. Recent Earthquakes

  4. Seismic Activity Potential in the US

  5. The Ratings There are two ratings by which enclosures are deemed seismic: IBC The IBC (International Building Code)is a set of guidelines which describe how to properly secure objects -in this case enclosures- so that they do not tip over and cause injury to anyone during an earthquake. Telcordia GR-63 GR-63 describes the protection level of an enclosure. It requires an enclosure to provide a level of protection such that the equipment inside shall sustain operation without replacement of components, manual rebooting, (or) human intervention during an earthquake. Crenlo Offers a Solution for Both!

  6. The Differences between the Ratings Note: With the launch, we will issue a technical document that covers the information on this slide. The info can also be found on our website!

  7. What to do if your Customer needs Seismic Determine if it is IBC or Telcordia GR-63 requirement. 2. Determine the weight load including the enclosure. 3. Contact the factory

  8. IBC Kit Specifics

  9. It All about the Anchoring Geographic Location Location within Building Type of Floor Weight Load > 50% < 50% Ground

  10. Essential vs. Non-Essential Buildings Buildings classified as essential would require that the electronics continue to function in the event of an earthquake. Fire, Medical, Police Structures, Critical Government Agencies. Buildings classified as non-essential would simply require the enclosure to remain standing. Corporate Headquarters, Schools, Sports Complex. Crenlo currently offers a solution for non-essential buildings

  11. The Certification Process

  13. Seismic Products Comparison Seismic Strength Cost

  14. FAQ’s Note: With the launch, we will issue a document containing a detailed list of FAQ’s and Answers. You can also reference our White Paper on this topic. It is available for download on our website!

  15. List Price and Part Numbers XTDK-IBC – Works with 10 Series Product Line Price: 97.00 GTDK-IBC – Will work with G-Series Product Line when released Price: 97.00

  16. Not all Seismic Enclosures are Created Equal Middle Atlantic – Has seismic brackets and documentation for each of its vertical enclosures. Documentation claims that the brackets are certified to UBC, CBC, IBC, ASCE and NFPA (certifications vary on enclosure and bracket type). Great Lakes – Offers a Seismic Anchor Kit and a “Seismic Zone 4 Enclosure” that complies to GR-63-CORE. The Seismic Anchor Kit complies to 2003 and 2006 IBC. APC – Offers a seismic option of their NetShelter enclosure as well as Bolt-Down Kit for the NetShelter SX line. The Seismic enclosure is rated to GR-63-CORE and the Bolt-Down Kit meets UBC Zone 4 Seismic anchoring requirements. Damac – Offers “Seismic NEBS” (compliant to GR-63-CORE) and “Seismic UBC” enclosure options.
