of 8 mm (0.31 inch). The preferred method of routing for all hoses is downward at an angle of at least 3º (pitch of 0.6 inch per 12 inches), without loops, and away from the MCS-200/100 cabinet. For MCS-200 only, pumped condensation and gravity-fed overflow hoses must be routed to a floor drain or reclaim system.

Flexible attachment hoses are intended to allow for deflection in any direction for equipment mounted on dynamic platforms, or for slight relocation of cabinets. Installation service for this MCS-200/100 is order number UE005E.

Piping approaches

HP recommends the following methods for facility plumbing orientation of the MCS-200/100:

•Direct rear approach

•Left rear approach

•Right rear approach

You can approach the MCS-200/100 from the front with piping for the top and bottom connection. This approach, however, requires careful planning for accessible component locations and hose attachments.
