2.5 Temperature sensors
The sensor may be placed where desired or left coiled inside the unit. It is recommended that the sen-
sor be routed to the front of the heat load for the most accurate temperature reading. In InRow config
-
uration, the temperature sensor monitors the temperature of the air entering the rack equipment. The
reading is used to control the operation of the unit, so the sensor must be placed as directed below or
the equipment will not operate properly.
Insert the rack temperature sensor connector in the temperature sensor port at the iCOM interface.
Secure the temperature sensor in front of the warmest heat source in the enclosure. Do not secure in
front of a blanking panel. The sensors must be installed where lack of sufficient cooling air is most likely.
The optimum position of the rack temperature sensors will vary from installation to installation.
Servers most likely to have insufficient or inadequately cooled cooling air due to the recirculation of hot
air from the hot aisle include:
•
Servers positioned at the top of a rack.
•
Servers positioned at any height in the last rack at an open end of a row.
•
Servers positioned behind flow-impairing obstacles such as building elements.
•
Servers positioned in a bank of high-density racks.
•
Servers positioned next to racks with air removal units.
•
Servers positioned very far from the equipment.
•
Servers positioned very close to the equipment.
