About this guide
Optimum environment and site preparation
CAUTION: Water quality that is out of spec may cause decreased cooling capacity or disruption in
service. The facility water supplied to the HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System must meet the
guidelines stated in this manual. The HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System warranty does not cover
damage caused by facility water that does not meet specifications.
To provide optimum performance with minimum maintenance, your site must meet environmental
requirements. The HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System is intended to be installed in an indoor location
that is temperature controlled and relatively free of conductive contaminants.
To route water lines to your HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System, use one of the following methods:
• Through an opening in the raised floor
• Through the top of the HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System
Safety information
The HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System is rated at a maximum facility pressure of 8 bar (116 PSI).
If valves are installed on the external pipe work that could potentially trap fluid inside the HPE Adaptive
Rack Cooling System, special precautions must be taken. To prevent severe plumbing failure due to
extreme pressure, use an expansion tank with a preinstalled safety valve in the plumbing circuit
connected to the unit.
WARNING: This equipment must be installed in a restricted access area. The equipment is not to
be accessible to persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities,
or a lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction. Only
authorized technicians trained by Hewlett Packard Enterprise should attempt to repair this
equipment. All troubleshooting and repair procedures are detailed to allow only subassembly- or
module-level repair. Because of the complexity of the individual boards and subassemblies, no one
should attempt to make repairs at the component level or to modify any printed wiring board.
Improper repairs can create a safety hazard.

HPE ARCS Water Hook-Up Kit
Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends using the HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling SystemWater Hook-Up
Kit to connect the HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System to a facility water supply. Each kit includes two
hose assemblies with 2-inch sanitary flange connections that are required for connecting the facility
supply and return lines to the main inlet and outlet connections of an HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling
System. One Water Hook-Up Kit is required for each HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System.
NOTE: To properly connect the Water Hook-Up Kit, the facility plumbing connection must be a 2-inch
flange fitting.

Installing the HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System
Procedure
1. Read the unpacking instructions on the HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System packaging material.
WARNING: The HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System is shipped on a pallet and weighs
approximately 645 kg (1,423 lb) by itself or 732 kg (1,614lb) including packaging. Hewlett
Packard Enterprise recommends hiring professional movers to move the unit, remove the HPE
Adaptive Rack Cooling System from the pallet, and move the HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling
System to the final location.
2. Using four or more people and the ramps that came with the HPE ARCS 42U/48U 600x1600mm
Rack, remove the HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System from the pallet.
3. Roll the HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System to the final location.
CAUTION: Before attaching the hoses to the HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System, verify that
the water supply and return are closed. Water that leaks into the unit can cause significant
damage.
4. Install the hoses, differential pressure tube, and Panduit boots.
5. To level the HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System:
a. Remove the screws from the fan housing.
b. Unplug the fan communication and power cables.
c. Remove the lower fan from the rack.
CAUTION: Use a minimum of two people to manually move the fan.
d. Adjust the leveling feet using a bubble level.
12 Installation
WARNING: To avoid tipping the HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System over, be sure that the
leveling feet are lowered when the HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System is equipped, serviced,
and operated.
6. Connect the network cable to the RJ-45 connector (labeled "ETH") on the transfer switch at the top
right on the rear of the HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System.
7. Plug the other end of the network cable into the facility network connection outlet.
WARNING: Before connecting the power cords to a power source, be sure that the unit is
properly grounded for potential equalization caused by high leakage current.
IMPORTANT: Do not connect the power cords into a power source before connecting to the
HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System.
8. Plug the primary power cord into the power connector on the left at the power distribution inside the
HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System.
Installation 13
If you are using a secondary power cord, plug it into the power connector on the right.
CAUTION: Do not force installation of power cords. Power cords are keyed and can only be
installed in one direction. Forcing cables into plugs can permanently damage the cable or the
plug.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment:
• Do not disable the power cord grounding plug. The grounding plug is an important safety
feature.
• Plug the power cord into a grounded (earthed) electrical outlet that is easily accessible at all
times.
• To disconnect power to the equipment, unplug the power cord from the power source.
• Do not route the power cord where it can be walked on or pinched by items placed against
it. Pay particular attention to the plug, electrical outlet, and the point where the cord extends
from the rack.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, connect the power cord to a power outlet with overcurrent
protection not exceeding 20A.
14 Installation
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, completely remove power before servicing by
disconnecting both power cords.
NOTE: If no secondary power is connected, the transfer switch will indicate a fail status for the
secondary power supply.
9. Guide the other ends of the power cords through the HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System, and then
plug them into an appropriate power source.
10. Check for any errors on the display screen. If errors are displayed, see " HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling
System troubleshooting" in the HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System User Guide.
For information on entering network settings, accessing controls, reviewing the details on the info
page, and resetting to factory defaults, see the HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System Web Interface
Guide.
