Rack-Mountable Server Installation 2-5 For electrical power ratings on options, see the product rating label or user documents supplied with the option. Grounding Requirements NOTE: The use of common power outlet strips for this equipment is not recommended. For proper operation and safety, the equipment must be properly grounded. In the United States, install the equipment according to NFPA 70-1993 (National Electric Code) Article 250, as well as any local and regional building codes. In Canada, install the equipment according to the Canadian Standards Association, CSA C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code. In all other countries the installation should comply with any regional or national electrical wiring codes, such as the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 364, parts 1 through 7. All power distribution devices used in the installation including branch wiring and receptacles, should be listed or certified ground devices. WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrical shock from high-leakage currents, a reliable grounded (earthed) connection is essential before connecting the unit to an AC supply. Because of the higher ground leakage currents of the equipment, Compaq recommends the use of a power distribution unit (PDU) that provides a supplementary ground conductor. Connect the supplementary ground conductor permanently to a suitable building ground terminal. Temperature Requirements To ensure continued safe, reliable operation of the equipment, install the system in a well ventilated, climate-controlled environment. The Compaq maximum recommended ambient operating temperature for most server products is 35°C (95°F). The temperature in the room where the rack is located should not exceed 35°C (95°F). The operating temperature inside the rack is always higher than the room temperature and depends on the configuration of equipment in your rack. Check the maximum internal rack temperature for each piece of equipment before installation. The maximum temperatures for your configuration should not exceed the values shown in Table 2-1.

Rack-Mountable Server Installation
2-5
For electrical power ratings on options, see the product rating label or user
documents supplied with the option.
Grounding Requirements
NOTE:
The use of common power outlet strips for this equipment is not recommended.
For proper operation and safety, the equipment must be properly grounded. In
the United States, install the equipment according to NFPA 70-1993 (National
Electric Code) Article 250, as well as any local and regional building codes. In
Canada, install the equipment according to the Canadian Standards
Association, CSA C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code. In all other countries the
installation should comply with any regional or national electrical wiring
codes, such as the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 364, parts
1 through 7. All power distribution devices used in the installation including
branch wiring and receptacles, should be listed or certified ground devices.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of electrical shock from high-leakage currents, a
reliable grounded (earthed) connection is essential before connecting the unit to
an AC supply.
Because of the higher ground leakage currents of the equipment, Compaq
recommends the use of a power distribution unit (PDU) that provides a
supplementary ground conductor. Connect the supplementary ground
conductor permanently to a suitable building ground terminal.
Temperature Requirements
To ensure continued safe, reliable operation of the equipment, install the
system in a well ventilated, climate-controlled environment.
The Compaq maximum recommended ambient operating temperature for most
server products is 35°C (95°F). The temperature in the room where the rack is
located should not exceed
35
°
C
(95°F).
The operating temperature inside the rack is always higher than the room
temperature and depends on the configuration of equipment in your rack.
Check the maximum internal rack temperature for each piece of equipment
before installation. The maximum temperatures for your configuration should
not exceed the values shown in Table 2-1.
