Rack-free environment requirements

The HP BladeSystem c7000 Enclosure (referred to as the enclosure) can be used in a rack-free environment. The following conditions must be met when performing a rack-free installation:

•A fully-populated enclosure can weigh up to 217.7 kg (480 lb). The object supporting the enclosure must be able to withstand this weight.

•The enclosure should be supported by a sturdy, flat surface.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment in a rack-free environment:

•Never stack an enclosure on top of another enclosure.

•Never place equipment on top of an enclosure.

•Never place an enclosure on a surface that cannot support up to 217.7 kg (480 lb).
