regulatory compliance information. This is an FCC Class A device. Integration of it
into a Class B chassis does not result in a Class B device.
Intended Uses
This product was evaluated as Information Technology Equipment (ITE), which may
be installed in offices, schools, computer rooms, and similar commercial type
locations. The suitability of this product for other product categories and
environments (such as: medical, industrial, telecommunications, NEBS, residential,
alarm systems, test equipment, etc.), other than an ITE application, may require
further evaluation.
EMC Testing
If the server board set is to be integrated into a non-Intel chassis, make sure that the
chassis, power supply, and other modules have passed EMC testing using the server
board set with a microprocessor from the same family (or higher) and operating at the
same (or higher) speed as the microprocessor used on this server board.
System power on/off: The power button DOES NOT turn off the system AC
power. To remove power from system, you must unplug all AC power cords from the
wall outlet. Make sure all AC power cords are unplugged before you open the
chassis, add, or remove any components.
Hazardous conditions, devices and cables: Hazardous electrical conditions
may be present on power, telephone, and communication cables. Turn off the server
and disconnect the power cord, telecommunications systems, networks, and modems
attached to the server before opening it. Otherwise, personal injury or equipment
damage can result.
Intel® Server Platforms SR6850HW4 and SR6850HW4/M Product Guide 5
Preface
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) and ESD protection: ESD can damage disk
drives, boards, and other parts. Perform all procedures using ESD protection
procedures. Some ESD protection can be provided by wearing an antistatic wrist
strap attached to a chassis ground⎯any unpainted metal surface⎯on your server
when handling parts.
ESD and handling boards: Always use ESD protection when handling ESD
sensitive hardware. Always handle boards carefully. Hold boards only by their edges.
After removing a board from its protective wrapper or from the server, install it
directly into the server or replace it directly into its protective wrapper. If you need to
set the board down, place it component side up on a grounded, static free surface.
Use a conductive foam pad if available. Do not set the board on the top of its antistatic bag. Do not slide a board over any surface.
Installing or removing jumpers: A jumper is a small plastic encased conductor
that slips over two jumper pins. Some jumpers have a small tab on top that you can
grip with your fingertips or with a pair of fine needle nosed pliers. If your jumpers do
not have such a tab, take care when using needle nosed pliers to remove or install a
jumper; grip the narrow sides of the jumper with the pliers, never the wide sides.
Gripping the wide sides can damage the contacts inside the jumper, causing
intermittent problems with the function controlled by that jumper. Use caution when
removing a jumper so you do not bend or break any pins on the server board.
Removing server top cover: Unless otherwise noted in this document, only a
QUALIFIED SERVICE TECHNICIAN is authorized to remove the server’s top
cover and to access any of the components inside the server. For proper cooling and
airflow, always install the server top cover before turning on the system. Operating
the system without the cover in place can lead to damage to system parts.
Risk of burns: Some exposed circuits exceed 240 VA when the system is
connected to a power source, and may cause burn injury if accidentally contacted.
Anchor the equipment rack: The equipment rack must be anchored to an
unmovable support to prevent it from falling over when one or more servers are
extended in front of the rack on slides. The anchors must be able to withstand a force
of up to 113 kg (250 lbs.). You must also consider the weight of any other device
installed in the rack. A crush hazard exists should the rack tilt forward which could
cause serious injury.
Main AC power disconnects: Users are responsible for installing an AC power
disconnect for the entire rack unit. This main disconnect must be readily accessible,
and it must be labeled as controlling power to the entire unit, not just to the server(s).
Grounding the rack installation: To avoid the potential for an electrical shock
hazard, users must include a third wire safety-grounding conductor with the rack
installation. If the server power cord is plugged into an AC outlet that is part of the
rack, then users must provide proper grounding for the rack itself. If the server power
cord is plugged into a wall AC outlet, the safety-grounding conductor in the power
cord provides proper grounding only for the server. Users must provide additional,
proper grounding for the rack and other devices installed in it.
6 Intel® Server Platforms SR6850HW4 and SR6850HW4/M Product Guide
Overcurrent protection: The server is designed for an AC line voltage source
with up to 20 amperes of overcurrent protection. If the power system for the
equipment rack is installed on a branch circuit with more than 20 amperes of
protection, you must provide supplemental protection for the server.
Hazardous conditions, power supply: Hazardous voltage, current, and energy
levels are present inside the power supply. There are no user-serviceable parts inside
the power supply; technically qualified personnel should do servicing.
Hazardous conditions, devices, and cables: Hazardous electrical conditions
may be present on power, telephone, and communication cables. Turn off the system
and disconnect the power cords, telecommunications systems, networks, and modems
attached to the system before opening it. Otherwise, personal injury or equipment
damage can result.
Hazardous conditions, processors, and VRMs: Hazardous thermal conditions
may be present in the system. Allow all fans to continue to spin until they shut down
on their own after power has been turned off. After the fans stop, you can remove the
power cords.
Power Cord Rating: Do not attempt to modify or use an AC power cord that is not
the exact type required. You must use a power cord that meets the following criteria:
The power cored must have an IEC 320 C19 connector to plug into the power
supply on the server.
For North America or similar electrical distribution systems, the cord must be UL
Listed/CSA Certified, 14/3 type SJT/SO/STO, with NEMA 5-15P (for 100127V) or 16/3 type SJT/SO with NEMA 6-15P (for 200-240V) or equivalent
attachment.
For Europe or similar electrical distribution systems, the cord must be flexible
VDE certified or HAR rated 250V, 3 x 1.0mm2 minimum conductor size with
IEC 320 C19 and C20 connectors, and rated for no less than the product ratings.
Cord length and flexibility: Cords must be less than 4.5 meters (14.76 feet) long.
Intel® Server Platforms SR6850HW4 and SR6850HW4/M Product Guide 7
Preface
CAUTIONS
Temperature: The range of temperatures in which the server operates when
installed in an equipment rack, must not go below 10 °C (50 °F) or rise above 35 °C
(95 °F). Extreme fluctuations in temperature can cause a variety of problems in your
server.
Ventilation: The equipment rack must provide sufficient airflow to the front of the
server to maintain proper cooling. The rack must also include ventilation sufficient to
exhaust a maximum of 1500 W (5,100 BTU/hr) for the server. The rack selected and
the ventilation provided must be suitable to the environment in which the server will
be used.
Power Cord Notes
For all power cord sets, the AC wall attachment plug shall be a three conductor
grounding type, rated at 125% of the total input current rating, and must be for the
specific region or country. The AC wall attachment plug must bear at least an
accepted safety agency certification mark for the specific region or country.
The cord must be no longer than 4.5 meters (14.76 feet).
Do not attempt to modify or use an AC power cord that is not the exact type required.
Surge Suppressor Recommendations: In geographic regions that are susceptible to
electrical storms, we highly recommend that you plug the server into a surge
suppressor.

corrisponde esattamente al tipo richiesto. Ad ogni fonte di alimentazione corrisponde un
cavo di alimentazione in c.a. separato.
L’interruttore attivato/disattivato nel pannello anteriore non interrompe l’alimentazione in c.a.
del sistema. Per interromperla, è necessario scollegare tutti i cavi di alimentazione in c.a.
dalle prese a muro o dall’alimentazione di corrente.
PASSI DI SICUREZZA: Qualora si rimuovano le coperture del telaio per accedere
all’interno del sistema, seguire i seguenti passi:
1. Spegnere tutti i dispositivi periferici collegati al sistema.
2. Spegnere il sistema, usando il pulsante spento/acceso dell’interruttore del sistema.
3. Togliere tutte le spine dei cavi del sistema dalle prese elettriche.
4. Identificare e sconnettere tutti i cavi attaccati ai collegamenti I/O od alle prese installate
sul retro del sistema.
5. Qualora si tocchino i componenti, proteggersi dallo scarico elettrostatico (SES),
portando un cinghia anti-statica da polso che è attaccata alla presa a terra del telaio del
sistema – qualsiasi superficie non dipinta – .
6. Non far operare il sistema quando il telaio è senza le coperture.
Dopo aver seguito i sei passi di SICUREZZA sopracitati, togliere le coperture del telaio del
sistema come seque:
1. Aprire e rimuovere il lucchetto dal retro del sistema qualora ve ne fosse uno installato.
2. Togliere e mettere in un posto sicuro tutte le viti delle coperture.
3. Togliere le coperture.
Per il giusto flusso dell’aria e raffreddamento del sistema, rimettere sempre le coperture del
telaio prima di riaccendere il sistema. Operare il sistema senza le coperture al loro proprio
posto potrebbe danneggiare i componenti del sistema. Per rimettere le coperture del telaio:
1. Controllare prima che non si siano lasciati degli attrezzi o dei componenti dentro il
sistema.
2. Controllare che i cavi, dei supporti aggiuntivi ed altri componenti siano stati installati
appropriatamente.
3. Attaccare le coperture al telaio con le viti tolte in precedenza e avvitarle strettamente.
4. Inserire e chiudere a chiave il lucchetto sul retro del sistema per impedire l’accesso non
autorizzato al sistema.
5. Ricollegare tutti i cavi esterni e le prolunghe AC del sistema.
Se il sistema è stato a lungo in funzione, il microprocessore e il dissipatore di calore
potrebbero essere surriscaldati. Fare attenzione alla presenza di piedini appuntiti e parti
taglienti sulle schede e sul telaio. È consigliabile l'uso di guanti di pr otezione.
Esiste il pericolo di un esplosione se la pila non viene sostituita in modo corretto. Utilizzare
solo pile uguali o di tipo equivalente a quelle consigliate dal produttore. Per disfarsi delle
pile usate, seguire le istruzioni del produttore.
