Rack Warnings and Precautions
Before beginning these procedures, please read and understand the following
statements.
WARNING: To avoid the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, at
least two people are needed to safely unload the rack from the pallet. An empty
42U rack weighs 115 kg (253 lb), is over 2.1 m (7 ft) tall, and may become
unstable when being moved on its casters. Do not stand in front of the rack as it
rolls down the ramp from the pallet, but handle it from the sides.
WARNING: A rack may become unstable if more than one component is
extended for any reason. To reduce the risk of personal injury, be sure that the
rack is adequately stabilized before extending a component outside the rack,
and extend only one component at a time.
WARNING: Never extend more than one rack drawer in a rack at a time. Doing
so could cause the rack system to become unstable and tip over.
WARNING: Before beginning to work on the rack, be sure that the leveling
jacks are extended to the floor, that the full weight of the rack rests on the level
floor, and that either stabilizers are installed or that multiple racks are coupled
for stability.
Server Warnings and Precautions
WARNING: To avoid the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, a
minimum of two people MUST lift the server into the rack. The server weighs
about 22.6 kg (50 lb). If the unit is to be loaded above chest level, a third person
must assist in aligning the rails while the other two support the unit.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the
hot-plug drives and internal system components to cool before touching them.
WARNING: This equipment is designed for connection to a grounded (earthed)
AC outlet. The grounding type plug is an important safety feature. To avoid risk
of electric shock or damage to your equipment, do not disable this feature.
WARNING: The rack-mountable ProLiant ML350 server must always be
operated with the system unit cover on. Proper cooling cannot be achieved if the
system unit cover is removed.

2-4 Compaq ProLiant ML350 Tower-to-Rack Conversion Guide
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 electric authority having jurisdiction over your facility
wiring and installation requirements.
The installation of this equipment shall be in accordance with local/regional
electric 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 electric power ratings on options, refer to the product rating
label or user documentation supplied with that option.
When installing more than one server, it may be necessary to utilize additional
power distribution devices to safely provide power to all devices.
I Balance the power load between available AC supply branch circuits.
I The overall system AC current load must not exceed 80 percent of the
AC supply branch circuit current rating.
Grounding Requirements
To ensure proper operation and safety, the server must be properly grounded
(earthed). In the United States, 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, install the equipment in accordance with Canadian
Standards Association, CSA C22.1, Canadian Electric Code. In all other
countries, follow any regional or national electric 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 branch
circuit or is provided with 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.

Rack Installation 2-5
Temperature Requirements
To ensure continued safe and reliable operation of the equipment, install or
place 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).
The operating temperature inside the rack is always higher than the room
temperature and is dependent on the configuration of equipment in your rack.
The TMRA for each piece of equipment should be checked before installation.
The maximum internal rack temperature for your configuration should not
exceed the values shown in the following table.
Table 2-1
Internal Rack Temperature Maximums
Equipment Included Internal Rack Temperature Maximum
Rack-mountable ProLiant servers 47C/122F
Compaq rack-mountable options 40C/104F
Other manufacturer options See other manufacturer specifications
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of damage to the equipment when installing
third-party options:
I Make sure that the option equipment does not impede airflow to the
rack-mountable ProLiant servers or increase the internal rack temperature
beyond the maximum rating specified by Compaq.
I Make sure that the Manufacturer Maximum Recommended Ambient
Operating Temperature of the option equipment is not exceeded when
installed into the rack.

2-6 Compaq ProLiant ML350 Tower-to-Rack Conversion Guide
Airflow Requirements
The ProLiant ML350 server draws cool air in through the front of the chassis
and exhausts warm air out through the rear of the chassis. Therefore, the front
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 apertures.
CAUTION: If a third-party rack is used, observe the following minimum
requirements to ensure adequate airflow and to prevent damage to the
equipment:
I Front: The rack door should have approximately 288 square cm (120
square in) of holes evenly distributed from top to bottom to permit
adequate airflow.
I Side: The clearance between the installed module and the side panels of
the rack should be a minimum of 6.9 cm (2.75 in).
I Rear: The clearance between the back of the rack and the wall should be a
minimum of 76.2 cm (30 in), and the equipment should be operating
without a rear door.
CAUTION: If not all of the vertical space in the rack is filled by components, the
gaps left can cause a change in airflow through the rack and across the
components. These gaps must be covered with blanking panels.
