CAUTION: To reduce the risk of damage to the equipment when installing third-party options:
• Do not permit optional equipment to impede airflow around the chassis or to increase the internal rack
temperature beyond the maximum allowable limits.
• Do not exceed the manufacturer’s TMRA.
Power requirements
Installation of this equipment must comply with local and regional electrical regulations governing the installation of IT
equipment by licensed electricians. This equipment is designed to operate in installations covered by NFPA 70, 1999
Edition (National Electric Code) and NFPA-75, 1992 (code for Protection of Electronic Computer/Data Processing
Equipment). For electrical power ratings on options, refer to the product rating label or the user documentation supplied
with that option.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, fire, or damage to the equipment, do not overload the AC supply
branch circuit that provides power to the rack. Consult the electrical authority having jurisdiction over wiring and
installation requirements of your facility.
CAUTION: Protect the server from power fluctuations and temporary interruptions with a regulating UPS. This
device protects the hardware from damage caused by power surges and voltage spikes and keeps the server in
operation during a power failure.
Grounding requirements
• The building installation must provide a means of connection to protective earth.
• The equipment must be connected to that means of connection.
• A service person must check whether the socket-outlet from which the equipment is to be powered provides a
connection to the building protective earth. If the outlet does not provide a connection, the service person must
arrange for the installation of a protective earthing conductor from the separate protective earthing terminal to the
protective earth wire in the building.
Device bay thermal requirements
Operate the chassis only when a device or blank is installed in all device bays. Before powering up the chassis, be sure to
do the following:
• Install a drive or drive blank into all drive bays.
• Install a server or a blank into all server bays.
• Install a power supply or power supply blank into all power supply bays.
Rack warnings and cautions
WARNING: When all components are removed, the chassis weighs 51.20 kg (112.87 lb). When all components are
installed, the chassis can weigh up to 149.76 kg (330.61 lb).
Before configuring your rack solution, be sure to check the rack manufacturer weight limits and specifications.
Failure to do so can result in physical injury or damage to the equipment and the facility.
