1 General Site Preparation Guidelines The following information provides general principles and practices to consider before the installation or operation of an hp server. Chapter 1 1 - HP rp5400 | Site Preparation Guide - rp5400 - Page 10
design and installation of a power distribution system for an hp server requires specialized skills. Those responsible for this task must have a thorough knowledge and understanding of appropriate electrical codes and the limitations of the power systems for computer and data processing equipment - HP rp5400 | Site Preparation Guide - rp5400 - Page 11
consider any peripheral equipment that will be installed during initial installation or as a later update. Refer to the applicable documentation for such devices to determine the power required to support these devices. Electrical Load Requirements (Circuit Breaker Sizing) NOTE Local authority has - HP rp5400 | Site Preparation Guide - rp5400 - Page 12
service. Therefore, adherence to the following guidelines provides the best possible performance of power distribution systems for hp computer equipment: • Dedicated power source-Isolates an hp server power [LAHJ] Raceways (electrical conduits) form part of the protective ground path for personnel - HP rp5400 | Site Preparation Guide - rp5400 - Page 13
Preparation Guidelines Electrical Factors Grounding Systems An hp server requires two methods of grounding: • Power distribution safety grounding • High frequency intercabinet grounding Power Distribution Safety Grounding [LAHJ] The power distribution safety grounding system consists of connecting - HP rp5400 | Site Preparation Guide - rp5400 - Page 14
#6 AWG minimum copper wire grid mechanically clamped to floor pedestals and service entrance ground and hp computer equipment). The use of conductive floor tiles with this style of grid further enhances ground performance.

power cable and data communications cable installations are discussed. NOTE In domestic installations, the proper receptacles should be installed prior to the arrival of Hewlett-Packard equipment. Refer to the appropriate installation guide for installation that cause serious problems, such as - HP rp5400 | Site Preparation Guide - rp5400 - Page 16
Preparation Guidelines Environmental Elements Environmental Elements The following environmental elements can affect an hp server installation: • Computer room preparation • Cooling requirements • Humidity level • Air conditioning ducts • Dust and pollution control • Electrostatic discharge (ESD - HP rp5400 | Site Preparation Guide - rp5400 - Page 17
be modified. For each 1000 feet (305 m) increase in requirements (for human occupancy) and to maintain a positive air pressure in the computer room. Air Conditioning System Types The following three air conditioning system types are listed intake vents of the hp server equipment cabinets. Supply air - HP rp5400 | Site Preparation Guide - rp5400 - Page 18
computer room or from an air handling unit (remote). Adjust the supply air diffuser system grilles to direct the cooling air downward around the front of the hp server servicing operations. Paper feed problems on high-speed printers are drives, and some other mechanical devices can have bearing - HP rp5400 | Site Preparation Guide - rp5400 - Page 19
for additional details. Smaller particles can pass though some filters and over a period of time, cause problems in mechanical parts. Small dust particles can be prevented from entering the computer room by maintaining the air conditioning system at a high static air pressure level.

Floor Loading The computer room floor must be able to support the total weight of the installed hp server as well as the weight of the individual illustrations for the customer or local agencies to determine installation requirements. The following guidelines are recommended: • Because many raised - HP rp5400 | Site Preparation Guide - rp5400 - Page 22
Floor Site This section contains an example of a computer room raised floor system that is satisfactory for the installation of an hp server. Based on specific information provided by Hewlett-Packard, Tate Access Floors has approved its Series 800 all-steel access floor with bolt-together stringers - HP rp5400 | Site Preparation Guide - rp5400 - Page 23

Magnetic tape storage media is damaged if exposed to direct sunlight. Also, the heat generated by sunlight - HP rp5400 | Site Preparation Guide - rp5400 - Page 24
General Site Preparation Guidelines Space Requirements Space Requirements This section contains information about space requirements for an hp server. This data should be used as the basic guideline for space plan developments. Other factors, such as airflow, lighting, and equipment space - HP rp5400 | Site Preparation Guide - rp5400 - Page 25
lists the sequence of events for a typical system installation: • 60 days before installation - Floor plan design completed and mailed to Hewlett-Packard (if required to be an HP task) • 30 days before installation - Primary power and air conditioning installation completed - Telephone and data - HP rp5400 | Site Preparation Guide - rp5400 - Page 26
