HP POD frequently asked questions

Question	Answer
Can I keep the HP POD on the trailer?	Yes, if you choose to lease the trailer from HP or if your
	purchase your own trailer and have the HP POD installed on
	your trailer prior to shipment. You must also:
	• Ensure that the site is stable and has been prepared
	correctly for the additional weight of the trailer.
	• Provide a work platform to access exterior panels.
What cooling capacity ranges are available	The HP POD is capable of cooling rack-mounted components
in the HP POD?	consuming up to 605 kW of electrical power.
What electrical power capacity ranges are	The low density HP POD is capable of powering components up
available in the HP POD?	to 450 kW of electrical power.
	The high density HP POD is capable of powering components
	up to 605 kW of electrical power.
Can the level of heat removal be regulated	Yes, the control system automatically adjusts the air flow to
in proportion to the waste heat generated?	remove heat generated in the HP POD.
How is water connected to the HP POD?	There are two options to connect water:
	• You directly connect your facility water to the HP POD,
	making sure the water meets the water requirements
	("Water quality requirements" on page 30) for quality,
	temperature, and flow rate.
	• You connect your facility water to the water distribution kit,
	which is then connected to the HP POD through two 4-in
	150-psi hoses.
Does the HP POD require maintenance?	Yes, general maintenance is outlined in this document. Contact
	HP service for additional information.
Does condensation form?	During normal operation some condensation might form, but the
	condensation does not reach any rack-mounted components or
	cause any damage. Excess condensation from the heat
	exchangers is collected and drained via three condensate
	drains ("HP POD drains" on page 28) across the rear of the HP
	POD. In most cases, the condensation evaporates prior to
	reaching the condensate drains.
How does the HP POD control humidity?	The relative humidity is maintained between 30–70%.
	If additional humidity is required, connect your facility water to
	the humidifier supply on the front of the HP POD.
Does the air flow within the HP POD	The humidity of the HP POD is maintained between 30–70% to
produce static electricity?	ensure that dangerous levels of static electricity cannot build.
