Safety and regulatory compliance
For important safety, environmental, and regulatory information, see Safety and Compliance Information
for Server, Storage, Power, Networking, and Rack Products, available at the Hewlett Packard Enterprise
website (http://www.hpe.com/support/Safety-Compliance-EnterpriseProducts).
Configuration guidelines
To meet thermal requirements, always do the following:
•
Populate empty bays with a blank.
•
Populate all five fan bays with a fan.
Determine power and cooling configurations
Validate power and cooling requirements based on location and installed components.
Power requirements
Installation of this equipment must comply with local and regional electrical regulations governing the
installation of IT 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 (code for Protection of
Electronic Computer/Data Processing Equipment). For electrical power ratings on options, refer to the
product rating label or the user documentation supplied with that option.
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 wiring and installation requirements of your facility.
CAUTION: Protect the server from power fluctuations and temporary interruptions with a
regulating UPS. This device protects the hardware from damage caused by power surges and
voltage spikes and keeps the server in operation during a power failure.
