Ibm 7014 Model T42 Rack - IBM Power 750 Technical Overview And Introduction

For the T00 rack, three door options are available:
– Front Door for 1.8 m Rack (FC 6068)
This feature provides an attractive black full height rack door. The door is steel, with a
perforated flat front surface. The perforation pattern extends from the bottom to the top
of the door to enhance ventilation and provide some visibility into the rack.
– 1.8 m Rack Acoustic Door (FC 6248)
This feature provides a front and rear rack door designed to reduce acoustic sound
levels in a general business environment.
– 1.8 m Rack Trim Kit (FC 6263)
If no front door should used in the rack, this feature provides a decorative trim kit for the
front.
Ruggedized Rack Feature
For enhanced rigidity and stability of the rack, the optional Ruggedized Rack Feature
(FC 6080) provides additional hardware that reinforces the rack and anchors it to the floor.
This hardware is designed primarily for use in locations where earthquakes are a concern.
The feature includes a large steel brace or truss that bolts into the rear of the rack.
It is hinged on the left side so it can swing out of the way for easy access to the rack
drawers when necessary. The Ruggedized Rack Feature also includes hardware for
bolting the rack to a concrete floor or a similar surface, and bolt-in steel filler panels for any
unoccupied spaces in the rack.
Weights are as follows:
– T00 base empty rack: 244 kg (535 lb)
– T00 full rack: 816 kg (1795 lb)
– Maximum weight of drawers is 572 kg (1260 lb)
– Maximum weight of drawers in a zone 4 earthquake environment is 490 kg (1080 lb),
which equates to 13.6 kg (30 lb) per EIA
Important: If additional weight is added to the top of the rack, for example add feature
code 6117, the 490 kg (1080 lb) must be reduced by the weight of the addition. As an
example, feature code 6117 weighs approximately 45 kg (100 lb) so the new maximum
weight of drawers that the rack can support in a zone 4 earthquake environment is 445 kg
(980 lb). In the zone 4 earthquake environment the rack should be configured starting with
the heavier drawers at the bottom of the rack.
