Rack Airflow
Requirements
Rack 9000 and 10000 series Cabinets
The increasing power of new high-performance processor technology requires
increased cooling efficiency for rack-mounted servers. The Compaq 9000 Series
Rack and the new 10000 Series Racks provides enhanced airflow for maximum
cooling, allowing these racks to be fully loaded with servers using the latest
processors.
Rack 7000 series Cabinets
When installing a server with processors running at speeds of 550 MHz or
greater in Compaq Rack 7000 series racks with glass doors (165753-001 (42U),
and 163747-001 (22U)), the new processor technology requires the installation
of Compaq’s new High Airflow Rack Door Inserts (327281-B21 (42U), 327281-
B22 (42U 6 pack), or 157847-B21 (22U)) to promote enhanced airflow for
maximum 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 your 42U server rack includes closing front
and rear doors, you must allow 5,350 sq cm (830 square inches) of
hole 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 inches)
