2-2 Compaq ProLiant DL320 Setup and Installation Guide
The Optimum Environment
When installing your Compaq ProLiant DL320 server in a rack, select a
location that meets the environmental standards described in the following
paragraphs.
Space Requirements
Consider the following spatial requirements when deciding where to install
your rack:
I Leave a minimum clearance of 25 inches in front of the rack to allow the
front door to open all the way and to allow for adequate airflow.
I Leave a minimum clearance of 30 inches in the back of the rack to allow
for servicing and adequate airflow.
Power Requirements
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, fire, or damage to the
equipment, do not overload the AC supply branch circuit that provides power to
the rack. Consult the electrical authority having jurisdiction over your facility's
wiring and installation requirements.
The installation of this equipment shall be in accordance with local/regional
electrical regulations governing the installation of information technology
equipment by licensed electricians. This equipment is designed to operate in
installations covered by NFPA 70-1999 (National Electric Code) and
NFPA-75, 1992 (code for Protection of Electronic Computer/Data Processing
Equipment). For electrical power ratings on options, refer to the product's
rating label or the user documentation supplied with that option.
When installing more than one server, you may need to use additional power
distribution devices to safely provide power to all devices.
I The power load must be balanced between available AC supply branch
circuits.
I The overall system AC current load must not exceed 80 percent of the
branch circuit AC current rating.

Planning the Server Installation 2-3
Grounding Requirements
For proper operation and safety, the server must be properly grounded. In the
United States, you must install the equipment in accordance with
NFPA 70-1999 (National Electric Code) Article 250 as well as any local and
regional building codes. In Canada, the equipment must be installed in
accordance with Canadian Standards Association, CSA C22.1, Canadian
Electrical Code. In all other countries, the installation must follow any
regional or national electrical wiring codes, such as the International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 364, parts 1 through 7. Furthermore, you
must ensure that all power distribution devices used in the installation--such
as branch wiring and receptacles--are listed or certified grounding-type
devices.
Because of the high ground leakage currents associated with multiple servers
connected to the same power source, Compaq recommends the use of a power
distribution unit (PDU) that is either permanently wired to the building's
branch circuit or includes a nondetachable cord that is wired to an industrial-
style plug. NEMA locking-style plugs or those complying with IEC 60309 are
considered suitable for this purpose. Compaq does not recommend using
common power outlet strips for this equipment.
Temperature Requirements
To ensure continued safe and reliable equipment operation, install or locate the
system in a well-ventilated, climate controlled environment.
The Compaq Maximum Recommended Ambient Operating Temperature
(TMRA) for most server products is 35C (95F). The temperature in the room
where the rack is located should not exceed 35C (95F).

2-4 Compaq ProLiant DL320 Setup and Installation Guide
Airflow Requirements
CAUTION: When using a Compaq Series 7000 rack, you must install the high
air flow rack door insert to provide proper front-to-back airflow and cooling.
Compaq ProLiant DL320 servers draw cool air in through the front door and
exhaust warm air out the rear. Therefore, the front door of the rack must be
adequately ventilated to allow ambient room air to enter the cabinet, and the
rear door must be adequately ventilated to allow the warm air to escape from
the cabinet. Do not block the ventilation openings.
Blanking Panels
CAUTION: Always use blanking panels to fill empty vertical spaces in the rack.
This arrangement ensures proper airflow. Using a rack without blanking panels
results in improper cooling that can lead to thermal damage.
If any of the vertical space in the rack is not filled by components, the gaps
between the components will cause changes in airflow through the rack and
across the components. Cover these gaps with blanking panels to maintain
proper airflow.
CAUTION: Avoid thermal events that could cause damage to your system by
ensuring that there are at least 19.75 square inches (50.16 sq cm) of open
space in the front and back rack door for each ProLiant DL320 server. If this
amount of space is not available, remove the doors to allow proper ventilation.

Rack Warnings and Precautions
Before beginning these procedures, make sure you understand the following
warnings and cautions:
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage, always
ensure that the rack is adequately stabilized before extending a component
outside the rack. A rack may become unstable if more than one component is
extended for any reason. Extend only one component at a time.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage, be sure
that:
I The leveling jacks are extended to the floor.
I The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling jacks.
I The stabilizers are attached to the rack for single-rack installation.
I The racks are coupled together in multiple-rack installations.
WARNING: When installing the server in a Telco rack, make certain that the
rack frame is adequately secured to the top and bottom of the building
structure.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage, at least
two people are needed to safely unload the rack from the pallet. An empty 42U
rack can weigh as much as 253 lb (115 kg), can stand more than 7 ft (2.1 m)
tall, and may become unstable when being moved on its casters.
Never stand in front of the rack when it is rolling down the ramp from the pallet;
always handle the rack from both sides.
