Connecting To The Facility Water - HP Adaptive Rack Cooling System System Installation Manual

Connecting to the facility water

CAUTION: Water quality that is out of spec might cause decreased cooling capacity or disruption in
service. The water flowing into the HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System must meet the guidelines
stated in the HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System Site Preparation Guide. Damage caused by
contaminated water is not covered by the HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System warranty.
Before attaching the hoses to the HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System, verify that the water supply
and return are closed. Water that leaks into the unit can cause significant damage.
NOTE: Facility hose connections might vary by customer requirements.
NOTE: The HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System has a failed last control state valve. During initial
hookup, the control valve must be manually opened through the web interface to allow water to flow
through. Isolation valves will open automatically once the HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System is powered
up.
1. Route the water hoses from either the top or bottom (depending upon site specifications), through
the floor cut-out, and then install each main hose to the HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System:
a. Remove the blanks from the extensions.
b. To install the Panduit boots for the hoses to pass through:
I. Slide the Panduit boot over the hose.
II. Install the 16 screws included with the kit.
III. Tighten the hook and loop strip to secure the Panduit boot to the frame of the rear
extension.
