Specification
Humidifier drain
Cold aisle side (1)
3.18 cm (1.25 in) drain line and 26.5 lpm (7 gpm) max
Chilled water supply
The fol owing are the water quality requirements and specifications:
•
Closed-loop water must not contain any lime scale deposits or loose debris.
•
The temperature of the chilled water supplied to the HP POD 20c must be 12ºC to 24ºC (55ºF to 75ºF).
CAUTION: Freezing water can cause a blockage and damage to the unit. In outside locations
that are subject to freezing temperatures, an additive such as glycol might be necessary to lower
the freezing point. However, since the heat transfer potential of water with glycol is lower, the HP
POD 20c must be de-rated accordingly.
IMPORTANT: The chil ed water system piping and heat exchangers must be drained completely,
and then purged using compressed air when storing or transporting at or below freezing
temperatures.
IMPORTANT: Operating the chil ed water system at the higher end of the acceptable range
decreases the overall thermal capacity of the POD.
Acceptable water quality specifications
Water must be maintained per the fol owing acceptable water quality standards.
