to gain access to a raised computer room floor. Move the system slowly and
deliberately, and ensure that the floor is free of foreign objects, cables, or other
obstructions.
Power and Electrical Requirements
The Sun Blade 6000 modular system uses two 200–240V, 5600W power supply
modules. The following topics describe the power and electrical requirement for the
chassis:

Power Consumption
The amount of power that the system consumes dependents on its configuration, that
is, the number of active modular components installed. To determine the power
redundancy requirements, you need to know:
Source power available
■
Power consumption (depends on component configuration)
■
Redundancy level required
■
The system requires a minimum of four AC inputs. To provide 2N power
redundancy at a 5600W consumption level, and to ensure that the system can tolerate
a loss of one power supply, the system should never exceed 6250W of power
consumption at any given time.
Power Budgeting
The power requirements for different components in the Sun Blade 6000 system are
provided through the power conversion calculator. Use the power calculator for
estimating the power consumption of your system:
