Key MCS 5042 components
The MCS 5042 key components that work together to provide cooling performance include:
•Main breakers—Provides power for the MCS 5042 through circuit breakers (do not control power at the input panel*).
•Heat Exchanger Module (HEX)—Includes an air-to-water heat transfer device specially created for demanding data center environments.
•Display—Provides general cooling unit status.
•Management module—Provides users with web-based capabilities to set, monitor, and control temperature within the modular cooling unit and displays the health of the unit.
•Fan controller—Operates the fans, according to the cabinet air temperature.
•Air bleeder valve—Enables air to bleed out of the system manually when coolant is initially filled.
•Water controller—Senses for condensation, leaks, water temperatures, flow rate, and the status of the water valve and reports this information to the management module.
•AC input/network connection—Provides primary and (if available) secondary AC input connections and management network interface.
•AC transfer switch—Provides dual-AC power with a fail-over feature for redundancy.
•Fans—Provides circulation of cooled air through the computer equipment rack.
•Water group—Includes the water valve, flow meter, check valve, and temperature sensors.
A condensation pump with overflow and condensation lines connects to the water group. Each MCS 5042 has one water group.
*If the MCS 5042 is still connected to a power source, voltage is applied before the circuit breakers at the input panel.
