Typical maximum power or User expected maximum power (Input power at the ac input expressed in Watts and
Volt-Amps.) This figure is developed with the absolute maximum configuration running applications designed to draw
the maximum power possible. It is highly unlikely that any real-world application will result in this amount of power use
for any significant time period.

All temperature ratings shown are for sea level. An altitude derating of 1°C per 300 m above 900 m is applicable. No
direct sunlight allowed. Upper operating limit is 3,048 m (10,000 ft) or 70 Kpa/10.1 psia. Upper non-operating (storage)
limit is 9,144 m (30,000 ft) or 30.3 KPa/4.4 psia.
2
This range is the recommended target facility design and operational range.
3
Storage maximum humidity of 90% is based on a maximum temperature of 45°C (113°F). Altitude maximum for storage
corresponds to a pressure minimum of 70 KPa.

Cooling requirements
HP Integrity Superdome 2 is a rack mounted system that cools by drawing air in the front and
exhausting it out the rear. General ASHRAE best practices must be followed when installing
Superdome 2 in a data center:
•
Hot/cold aisle layout
•
Appropriate blanking panels in any unused space in the rack.
•
No gaps exist between adjacent racks, which ensures minimal air recirculation.
•
An adequate hot-air return path to the computer room air conditioners (CRAC) or computer
room air handlers (CRAH), which minimizes the flow of hot air over any rack.
