Specifications
This section contains specifications for the pSeries 670 system.
pSeries 670 Physical Specifications and Loads
The following tables illustrate the physical, electrical and thermal, acoustical, and environmental
characteristics of various pSeries 670 system configurations.
Power and Electrical Requirements
Redundant power line cords are standard on the pSeries 670. The system uses dual ac power cords. For
maximum availability, each of the power cords should be fed from independent power grids.
The following table illustrates electrical and thermal characteristics for the pSeries 670.
Electrical/Thermal Characteristic
Rated Voltage (V ac, 3 phase) 200 to 240 380 to 415 480
Rated Current (A, per phase) 45 25 20
Frequency (Hertz) 50 to 60 50 to 60 50 to 60
Power (Maximum in kW) 6.7 6.7 6.7
Typical, full load power factor (pf) 0.99 0.97 0.93
Inrush current (Amps) 162 max (see note 1 below)
Thermal output (Maximum kBtu/hr) 22.8 22.8 22.8
Notes:
1. Inrush currents occur only at initial application of power (very short duration for charging capacitors). No inrush
currents occur during the normal power off-on cycle.
2. System will function normally with a nominal input voltage in the range of 200-480 V, AC, three phase.
The following table illustrates the line cord options for the pSeries 670 with their geographic, breaker
rating, and cord information.
3-Phase Supply Voltage (50/60 Hz) 200-240 V 380-415 V 480 V
Geography United States, Canada,
Japan Europe, Middle East,
Africa, Asia Pacific United States, Canada
Customer Circuit Breaker Rating (see
Note 1 below) 60 A 30 A 30 A
Cord Information 6 and 14 foot, 6 AWG
line cord 14 foot, 6 or 8 AWG
line cord, (electrician
installed) 6 and 14 foot, 10 AWG
line cord
Recommended Receptacle IEC309, 60 A, type
460R9W (not provided) Not specified,
electrician installed IEC309, 30 A, type
430R7W (not provided)
Notes:
1. The exact circuit breaker ratings may not be available in all countries. Where the specified circuit breaker ratings
are not acceptable, use the nearest available rating. Use of a time delayed circuit breaker is recommended.
Phase Imbalance: All systems are provided with 2 bulk power assemblies (BPAs), with separate line
cords. Each BPA will use only 2 phases of a 3-phase power system, causing phase imbalance. Phase
currents will be divided between 2 line cords in normal operation.
