HP Modular Cooling System manual HP Water Hook-Up Kit

•Flow rate and pressure capacity of chilled water plant input to the design of the facility feed line and dedicated water loop pipe diameters

•Material compatibility within piping system to minimize the potential for electrochemical corrosion, and must be corrosion-resistant

•Minimization of elbows and other restrictions that increase flow resistance

•Insulation of piping to minimize risk of condensation and reduce incidental heating of supplied chilled water

•Availability of a floor drain or reclamation system to capture system condensation

•Structural securing of piping to support weight of distribution network filled with water

•Water quality management, including particulate filtration, treatment, and flushing provisions, with isolation valves for service requirements

•Availability and access to a data center leak detection system to monitor the infrastructure system for leaks

•Air vents installed at the highest point in the pipe system

Each MCS-200/100 has an air vent, but additional vents in the supply piping system must be considered.

HP Water Hook-Up Kit

HP recommends using the MCS-200/100 Water Hook-up Option Kit BW971A, available on the HP website (http://www.hp.com), to connect the MCS-200/100 to a facility chilled water system. Each kit includes the hoses and accessories required for connecting the facility supply and return lines to the main inlet and outlet connections of an MCS-200/100 unit and must be installed prior to the delivery of an MCS-200/100.
