environmental monitor controls the air temperature to the servers and adjusts automatically to

meet the pre-established air temperature goal. The environmental monitor interacts with HP

SIM (Systems Insight Manager) via SNMP traps.

The Water Hookup kit is available for both versions as a separate kit to prepare the water hookup

ahead of the arrival of the MCS.

This guide provides details on how to prepare the data center for the successful deployment of

the MCS G2 rack.

Some of the key features for both the HP Modular Cooling System and HP Modular Cooling

System G2 include:

MCS G2 Description

MCS Description

Feature

MCS G2 supports a full load of blade servers in

a single rack or 17.5kW per rack when deployed

as a rack solution. The MCS G2 unit will provide

cool air distributed along the full height of the

MCS G2 rack.

Supports for a full load of server blades, which,

at their maximum configuration require a power

load of 35KW. The MCS unit will provide over

2750 CFM of cool air distributed along the full

height of a 42U rack.

Cooling

capacity of up

to 35KW

Automatically detects power failure and switches

to alternate source.

Power input

redundancy

Features full environmental control of the cooled

air temperature being placed in front of the

servers. The heat exchanger unit features safety

quick disconnect valves that prevent accidental

chilled water leakage during service. A water leak

detector ships standard with the MCS G2. Alarms

can be sent via SNMP traps to Systems Insight

Manager (SIM).
