4.8.1 General project planning instructions for shutdown
and cooling Shutdown
Shutdown
For electrical shutdown of racks or external equipment, please pay atten-
tion to the following issues:
•
If complete units/racks are disconnected from power by shutdown,
make sure that sufficient cooling is provided.
•
The shutdown process should be carried out in a proper way, by
means of a controlled shutdown with no damages to equipment and
no loss of important data (i.e. soft-shutdown, save data, use an es-
tablished shutdown procedure provided by the owner/user).
•
Some types of racks will automatically open their doors when dis-
connected from power. In this case extinguishing is blocked by door
contacts.
•
Therefore it is essential that for successful extinguishing the doors
stay closed during shutdown.
Cooling
When using TITANUS
RACK·SENS
®
1U in racks with forced airflow the
following points need to be considered:
•
Cooling of the rack and its components must not be impaired by in-
stalling the TITANUS
RACK·SENS
®
1U unit and its components.
•
In case of power disconnection (shutdown) of the rack and its com-
ponents the minimum required cooling requirements must be pre-
served.
