Operational space requirements

To provide space for internal airflow and housing of the cooling unit components, the MCS-200/100 is wider and deeper than conventional HP racks.

HP recommends the minimum access space for the MCS-200/100 be 1219 mm (4 ft) in the front and 914 mm (3 ft) in the rear, as shown in the following figures.

•With the top shipping bracket, the total height is 2069 mm (81.5 inches).

•The MCS-200/100 unit requires approximately 600 mm of additional width (space) to accommodate the second IT rack, which is mounted to the left of the cooling unit.
