Assembly procedure
5.2.1
General
Before the Liquid Cooling Package can be bayed onto a
server enclosure, the following work should be carried
out:
– Seal the server enclosure,
– Dismantle the rear server enclosure door, if available
– Remove the lock pieces with the divided rear door and
– Fit the side panels.
After baying the Liquid Cooling Package, the optional air
routing kit may be installed.
5.2.2
Seal the server enclosure
In order to ensure targeted air routing in the system, the
server enclosure is vertically divided into hot air and cold
air zones by sealing the 482.6 mm (19") level.
Proceed as follows to seal the 482.6 mm (19") level:
If the server enclosure is only partially configured, seal
the open sections of the 482.6 mm (19") level using
blanking plates. Screw these tightly into the server
rack from the rear.
Secure one air baffle plate from the LCP Hybrid acces-
sories to one of the rear supports in the server rack
(fig. 12).

If devices which require cooling via sideways air
throughput (e.g. switches, router, etc.) are built into the
server enclosure, the air baffle plates will need to be
repositioned to allow for cooling (fig. 5):
Attach the air baffle plate in the front section on one
side of the server rack.
Attach the air baffle plate in a suitable place in the rear
section on the other side of the server rack.
5.2.3
Dismantle the rear server enclosure door
For baying the LCP Hybrid, the rear door of the server
enclosure (if available) will need to be removed. The
frame of the LCP Hybrid is bayed to the server enclosure
frame in place of the existing server door.
Proceed as follows to dismantle the server enclosure
door:
Remove the sealing bungs from the four door hinges
using an appropriate tool (e.g. screwdriver).
Release and open the server enclosure door.
On each hinge, loosen the locking screw used to se-
cure it to the server enclosure.

Note:
Blanking plates in the various height units (U)
and narrow air baffle plates are available as
Rittal accessories (see section 12 "Accesso-
ries").
Note:
Support the server enclosure door so that it
will not fall as the hinges are loosened. If nec-
essary, work with a second person.
