Temperature Requirements

To ensure continued safe and reliable equipment operation, install or locate the
system in a well-ventilated, climate-controlled environment.
The HP maximum recommended ambient operating temperature (TMRA) for most
server products is 35°C (95°F). The temperature in the room where the rack is
located must not exceed 35°C (95°F).

Power Requirements

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, fire, or damage to the
equipment, do not overload the AC supply branch circuit that provides power
to the rack. Consult the electrical authority having jurisdiction over the
facility's wiring and installation requirements.
The installation of this equipment shall be in accordance with local/regional electrical
regulations governing the installation of information technology equipment by
licensed electricians. This equipment is designed to operate in installations covered
by NFPA 70, 1999 Edition (National Electric Code) and NFPA 75, 1992 Edition
(code for Protection of Electronic Computer/Data Processing Equipment). For
electrical power ratings on options, refer to the product's rating label or the user
documentation supplied with that option.
When installing more than one server, additional power distribution devices may be
required to safely provide power to all devices. Observe the following guidelines:
•
The power load must be balanced between available AC supply branch circuits.
•
The overall system AC current load must not exceed 80 percent of the branch
circuit AC current rating.
