NOTE These values can fluctuate if uncertified hardware components or third party applications are added to your system. The use of uncertified hardware components or third party applications is not supported. Please consult the manufacturer's documentation for standardized minimum and maximum values.
The following table summarizes the peak (at startup) power consumed by the HP Z800 system and the heat it generates under the maximum processing load produced by a Visual Effects, Finishing, or Colour Grading application. For more detailed specifications, including noise output, see the documentation provided by the manufacturer.

You must be able to meet the startup power requirement and have a climate control system with the capacity to maintain the temperature of these components under the maximum processing load. The following table shows standard conversion benchmarks and an example of how they can be used to determine climate control requirements.
Unit Conversion | Example |
1 Watt = 3.413 BTU | 456 Watts = 1556.33 BTU |
12000 BTU = 1 Ton of air conditioning | 1556.33 BTU = 0.13 Tons of air conditioning |
