Temperature Requirements; Power Requirements - HP Apollo 4200 Gen9 User Manual

CAUTION:
Always use blanking panels to fill empty vertical spaces in the rack. This arrangement ensures proper
airflow. Using a rack without blanking panels results in improper cooling that can lead to thermal
damage.
The 9000 and 10000 Series Racks provide proper server cooling from flow-through perforations in the front
and rear doors that provide 64 percent open area for ventilation.
CAUTION:
When using a Compaq branded 7000 series rack, install the high airflow rack door insert (PN 327281-
B21 for 42U rack, PN 157847-B21 for 22U rack) to provide proper front-to-back airflow and cooling.
CAUTION:
If a third-party rack is used, observe the following additional requirements to ensure adequate airflow
and to prevent damage to the equipment:
• Front and rear doors—If the 42U rack includes closing front and rear doors, you must allow 5,350 sq
cm (830 sq in) of holes evenly distributed from top to bottom to permit adequate airflow (equivalent to
the required 64 percent open area for ventilation).
• Side—The clearance between the installed rack component and the side panels of the rack must be
a minimum of 7 cm (2.75 in).

Temperature requirements

To ensure continued safe and reliable equipment operation, install or position the system in a well-ventilated,
climate-controlled environment.
The 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).
CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of damage to the equipment when installing third-party options:
• Do not permit optional equipment to impede airflow around the server or to increase the internal rack
temperature beyond the maximum allowable limits.
• Do not exceed the manufacturer's TMRA.

Power requirements

Installation of this equipment must comply with local and 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 (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 uninterruptible
power supply. This device protects the hardware from damage caused by power surges and voltage
spikes and keeps the system in operation during a power failure.
