Raised Floor Installations
A raised floor system provides a convenient way to duct cooling air and to route
power and communication cabling. Sun strongly suggests that the system be
installed on a raised floor to ensure that optimal cooling is available to the system.
The computer room floor must be able to support the weight of the system cabinets.
Place perforated floor panels or floor grilles near or directly under the base of the
system. Suggested locations for perforated floor panels or floor grilles are shown in
“Computer Room Layout” on page 11. Use the floor layout diagram of the proposed
location for the system to determine the exact area required for your system. Ensure
the cabinets are positioned so that all casters and leveling feet are on solid raised-
floor tiles.
Sun suggests a minimum raised floor height of 24–36 in. (61.0–91.5 cm).
