Space Requirements
This section contains information about space requirements for an HP Integrity rx7620 Server. This data
should be used as the basic guideline for space plan developments. Other factors, such as airflow, lighting,
and equipment space requirements must also be considered.
Delivery Space Requirements
There should be enough clearance to move equipment safely from the receiving area to the computer room.
Permanent obstructions, such as pillars or narrow doorways, can cause equipment damage.
Delivery plans should include the possible removal of walls or doors.

Operational Space Requirements
Other factors must be considered along with the basic equipment dimensions. Reduced airflow around
equipment causes overheating, which can lead to equipment failure. Therefore, the location and orientation of
air conditioning ducts, as well as airflow direction, are important. Obstructions to equipment intake or
exhaust airflow must be eliminated.
The locations of lighting fixtures and utility outlets affect servicing operations. Plan equipment layout to take
advantage of lighting and utility outlets. Do not forget to include clearance for opening and closing equipment
doors.
Clearance around the cabinets must be provided for proper cooling airflow through the equipment.
