Temperature Requirements - HP 245161-B22 - 10642 42U Rack Shock Pallet Reference Manual

Temperature Requirements

For safe and reliable operation of equipment, locate the system in a well-ventilated,
climate-controlled environment.
The HP Maximum Recommended Ambient Operating Temperature (TMRA) for
most server products is 95°F (35°C). Therefore, the temperature in the room where
the rack is located should not exceed 95°F (35°C).
The operating temperature inside the rack is always higher than the room temperature
and is dependent on the configuration of equipment in your rack. Check the TMRA
for each piece of equipment before installation.
The maximum internal rack temperature for your configuration should not exceed the
values in the following table.
