Additionally, please observe the following regarding in-
stalled equipment in the server enclosure:
Ensure that the 482.6 mm (19") equipment is distrib-
uted as evenly as possible inside the server enclosure.
This prevents selective loading of the heat exchanger.
Install heavy equipment with high heat generation at
the bottom of the server enclosure, and passive com-
ponents with low heat generation at the top.
If the server enclosure is not fully populated, seal the
open height units (U) in the 482.6 mm (19") level with
blanking plates, available as Rittal accessories (see
section 12 "Accessories").

Server enclosure
The Liquid Cooling Package is comprised of a rear door
with heat exchanger and a side frame.
The door is fitted with a special door bracket at the rear
of the server enclosure, and seals the server enclosure
with 4-point locking.
There is a maintenance door fitted on the inside of the
Liquid Cooling Package. Whilst closed, this provides ac-
cess protection for the heat exchanger.
Note:
Foam strips may also be used as an alterna-
tive to air baffle plates.
