INTRODUCTION

Your Liebert Little Glass House™ (LGH) will
provide a secure controlled environment in a
single factory assembled enclosure. The
integrated/matched models are designed to
control the environment and provide smooth
reliable power so that your sensitive computer
and network equipment will provide the reliable
performance you depend upon for your business
operations.

The Little Glass House is completely factory
assembled and tested, ready for you to install
your equipment and plug the unit into a 120 V~/
60 Hz or 230 V~/ 50 Hz dedicated outlet. For 60
Hz models, the required power
receptacle/socket may be 15, 20, or 30 Amps,
depending on your selected LGH. Models with
60 Hz ECM-80 uses two input power
connections, with one 20 Amp plug for the ECM­80 and the other plug either 15 or 20 Amps
depending on the UPS model. For 50 Hz
models, a power cord is included for connection
to a customer supplied plug.

Refer to drawings and tables in this manual for
dimensions, environmental performance data,
and input power requirements. Refer to the
separate UPS manual for UPS performance
details.

ENCLOSURE

The enclosure can accommodate shelf mounted
or rack mounted equipment, on either 19 or 24
inch punched rails (per EIA-310). The 19 inch
rack cabinets are 25 inches (635 mm) wide.
Cabinets with 24 inch racks are 30 inches (765
mm) wide. The enclosures can be nominal 72
or 78 inches (1830 or 1980 mm) high, and 34 or
38 inches (865 or 965 mm) deep. The unit is
mounted on casters and leveling feet. Interior
insulation is provided in models with
Environmental Control Module (ECM) cooling.

A solid panel (metal) front door is standard. A
smoked plastic front window is available to
maintain enclosure security while allowing you to
monitor equipment status. The rear door
provides convenient access to customer wiring.
Two horizontal cable entrance raceways are
provided. An optional internal cable
management raceway (vertical) is available.
Both doors have a key lock and a four point
latch.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROL

The Uninterruptible Air Supply™ (UAS) consists
of an Environmental Control Module (ECM) and
a Back-up Cooling Fan. The ECM is normally
sized to match the capacity of the UPS module
plus heat transmitted into the LGH. Three ECM
modules, ECM-42, ECM-62, and ECM-80 are
available. Air is controlled and circulated within
the enclosure. Outside (ambient) air is used to
remove heat from the enclosure through the air
cooled condenser. Two-speed fans are used to
provide quiet operation. At rated maximum
ambient conditions, the temperature inside the
enclosure will be from 70° to 95°F (21 to 35°C),
depending on the electronics load. If the internal
cabinet temperature reaches 100°F (38°C) -- for
example, during a power failure -- the Back-up
Cooling Fan operated on UPS battery power will
flow filtered ambient air through the enclosure.

The Back-up Cooling Fan is standard on UAS
models. All UAS or ECM models require a
clearance of 12 inches (305 mm) both on top
and rear of the LGH for proper airflow. The 50
Hz back-up cooling options have an On/Off (O/I)
switch located in the inlet channel to the ECM
condenser coil. This switch should be on during
normal operation.

If environmental control as previously described
is not required, Forced Air Cooling (FAC) is
available. Filtered ambient air is drawn through
the enclosure from the bottom front to the top
rear. A two-speed fan is controlled by a
thermostat factory set at 80°F (27°C), which
measures air entering the unit. The two-speed
fan design provides quiet low-speed operation
below the thermostat set point. A single fan
(nominally rated at 190 CFM - 323 CMH) or dual
fans (nominally rated at 360 CFM - 611 CMH)
can be provided. A clearance of 12 inches (305
mm) is required both on top and rear of the LGH
for FAC models.

INSTALLATION CONNECTIONS

The Little Glass House is a self-contained unit.
The only required connection is for electric
power. For 60 Hz models, the power cord is 9
(2.7 m) feet long and has a NEMA 120 V~ plug,
sized for current (Amps) based on equipment
specified when ordered. For 50 Hz models, a
power cord is included for connection to a
customer supplied plug. The 60 Hz ECM-80
model uses two input power connections, with
one 20 Amp plug for the ECM-80 and the other
plug either 15 or 20 Amps depending on the
UPS model. Refer to table on page 11. The
LGH and its protected equipment should be on a
dedicated circuit and circuit breaker.

Do not defeat ground/earth connections
between the utility/mains outlet and the Little
Glass House. All plug receptacles/sockets in
the vicinity of where the LGH will be used must
be a ground/earth type and grounded/earthed
with an insulated ground/earth conductor of
identical size, insulation material, and thickness
to the grounded/earthed and
ungrounded/earthed supply conductors which is
grounded/earthed to ground/earth at the service
equipment or separately derived source.

NOTE: The utility/mains output must have the
neutral and ground/earth bonded, per the
National Electrical Code, to prevent damage to
the UPS. Damage related to faulty utility/mains
wiring is not covered by Liebert warranty.

Contacts are provided to annunciate two alarms:
High Temperature (100°F - 38°C internal, Back-

up Cooling Fan operating) and Dirty Air Filter
(filter is clogged and requires cleaning).
Customer connection is two compression lug
terminals inside the rear of the unit. These
normally open contacts are rated for 40
milliAmps at 30 volts maximum (Class 2 wiring).

A contact is provided on the rear of the ECM to
indicate power to the compressor (Compressor
on/off). This normally open contact is rated for

0.5 Amp at 120 V~.

A control contact is provided inside the ECM
(under access plate at top left rear) for remote
shutdown/ startup. To use, replace jumper on 37
and 38 with a normally open non-powered
switch, rated for 5 Amps at 120 V~.

To allow communications between the UPS and
a LAN server or other computer system, the
available UPStation GXT is equipped with an
RS-232 interface port. Other UPS
communication options are available, including
SNMP. Refer to the separate UPS manual for
details.

The optional SiteNet™ Integrator is a separate
rackmount unit which communicates status of
the UPS and Little Glass House (including
temperature/humidity and several contact
closures) in SNMP protocol to a network
management system.

No plumbing connections are required as ECM
condensate is evaporated into the heat rejection
airstream. A condensate drain tube (3/8 inch
O.D. copper) is provided with ECM, but a
customer connection is not necessary. The
drain connection may need to be used in
exceptional situations, such as if a door is left
open for longer than 15 minutes while the ECM
is operating.

INSTALLING CUSTOMER EQUIPMENT

The Little Glass House can accommodate rack
mounted or freestanding computer and network
equipment. The unit contains 19 or 24 inch
punched rack rails (per EIA 310), depending on
model selected. Rack rails are provided at the
front and rear of the enclosure. Mounting
hardware available from your Liebert
representative includes a fixed shelf, a pullout
shelf, 19 inch to 24 inch rack rail adapters,
threaded adapters, adjustable position rack rails
and Compaq® adapters. Each optional kit is
supplied with installation hardware.

To maintain unit center of gravity as low as
possible, install customer equipment from the

6

bottom up, starting with the heavier units. Leave
available space (if any) at the top of the
enclosure.

CAUTION: To avoid tipping the unit when it is
being moved, push slowly on the lower part of
the enclosure. After customer equipment is
installed, the Little Glass House may have a
high center of gravity.

The LGH can support an electrical load based
on the UPS capacity. For integrated/matched
models, the Environmental Control Module is
normally sized to match the capacity of the UPS
plus heat transmitted into the enclosure. A
larger UPS can be supplied for longer battery
time. For 60 Hz units without a UPS, the
customer specifies maximum Amp load to
determine proper NEMA power plug rating.

NOTE: To charge the UPS batteries before
using the unit, you can apply power to the UPS
module while you are installing your equipment.
Install your critical equipment in the Little Glass
House. Use the two vertical channels at the rear
of the unit for routing customer wiring. Power
and communication wiring should be kept
separate as much as possible.

The optional power strip includes a circuit
breaker. The 60 Hz model includes 10 5-15R 15
Amp, 120 V~ receptacles/sockets. The 50 Hz
model includes 10 CEE22 (IEC320) 10 Amp,
250 V~ receptacles/sockets. The power strip is
protected by the UPS if a UPS is included. As
viewed from the rear, the ten power outlets are
on the right side. Power wiring is intended to be
routed on the right. Communication and control
wiring should be routed to the left side.

Provide enough length on customer supplied
cables to allow unit to be rolled forward for rear
access. Remember to connect a cable to the
Little Glass House alarm contacts if required for
your installation. Route customer wiring through
the two horizontal cable entrance raceways. An
optional internal cable management raceway
(vertical) is available.

START-UP

Before applying power, make sure the computer
equipment and power switches are in the OFF
position. Plug the Little Glass House power
cable into the customer provided
receptacles/sockets. Be certain there are no
obstructions (such as wires, conduit, or trash) to
the front or sides of the ECM. Make sure all
doors shut and seal properly. Roll the unit into
final position according to the location section on
page 4. If heat rejection duct option is included,
be sure there are no loops or kinks in the duct.

Turn on the Environmental Control Module
(ECM), or Forced Air Cooling system (FAC).
Then turn on the UPS, if included. If UPS status
indication is normal, turn on your computer and
network equipment. The UPS will immediately
supply regulated power. Battery back-up will be
available after batteries are fully charged.

The 60Hz Environmental Control Module has a
lighted power switch. The power switch for the
50 Hz models is the circuit breaker “B" on the
electric service assembly. ECM temperature
and capacity controls, including hot gas bypass,
are factory set. The FAC models have a
temperature switch factory set at 80°F (27°C),
which measures air entering the unit. The front
air filter requires periodic cleaning.
CAUTION: To avoid excessive condensation,
turn off the Environmental Control Module any
time an LGH door will be open for more than 15
minutes.

The UPS module has user friendly controls and
indicators. Refer to separate UPS manual for
details of UPS operation and LED indicators.
CAUTION: To maintain UPS battery capacity, do
not store Little Glass House for more than 6
months without applying power.

Call your Liebert supplier if you have any
questions or problems during the installation or
operation of your Little Glass House.

OPERATION

ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROL MODULE
(ECM) & UNINTERRUPTIBLE AIR SUPPLY™
(UAS)

For integrated/matched models, the
Environmental Control Module is normally sized
to match the capacity of the UPS module and
heat transmitted into the Little Glass House™.
The module is located at the bottom of the
enclosure. Internal air is conditioned and
circulated within the enclosure. Outside
(ambient) air is used to remove heat from the
enclosure through the air cooled condenser. The
outside air is drawn through a louver and filter at
the bottom front of the unit and is discharged at
the rear (near the bottom).

The lighted ON/OFF switch is located inside the
front door, on the left side of the electrical panel
on 60 Hz models. For 50 Hz models, use circuit
breaker “B” of electrical service assembly for
ECM On/Off.

At rated maximum ambient conditions, the
temperature inside the enclosure will be from
70° to 95°F (21 to 35°C), depending on the
electronics load. The two speed fans are factory
set to operate at the lower speed for quiet
operation when the outside air entering the
condenser is below 80°F (27°C). The
compressor in the Environmental Control
Module will turn off if the internal cabinet
temperature goes below 65°F (18°C).

The hot gas bypass valve is factory set so the
compressor will operate nearly continuously for
maximum compressor life. This valve
modulates automatically to match compressor
capacity to the present load. Consult factory if
adjustment is desired.

In UAS systems, during an enclosure high
temperature condition (100°F - 38°C) a separate
Back-up Cooling Fan operated on UPS battery
power (if included) will use filtered ambient air to
cool the enclosure. This would occur only
during a power failure or an Environmental
Control Module failure. To annunciate a high
temp condition, an alarm beeper sounds and the
alarm contact closes (press Alarm Silence
switch to turn off beeper). Outside air is drawn
through a louver and filter at the bottom front of
the unit and is discharged at the rear (near the
top).

FORCED AIR COOLING (FAC)

Forced Air Cooling can be provided by a single
fan (nominally rated at 190 CFM - 323 CMH), or
by dual fans (nominally rated at 360 CFM - 611
CMH). The two-speed fans are activated by a
temperature switch. Ambient air is drawn
through the filter at the bottom front of the unit,
and discharged at the top rear.

The ON/OFF control switch is located inside
the front door, on the left side. The same
control box includes the temperature switch
factory set at 80°F (27°C), which measures
air entering the unit. If the entering air
temperature goes above 80°F (27°C), the fan
speed switches from low to high.

UNINTERRUPTIBLE POWER SUPPLY (UPS)

The Little Glass House may be supplied with
one of several Liebert UPS units, or with no
UPS. For integrated/matched models, the UPS
and ECM are normally sized with matched
capacities. A larger UPS can be supplied for
more battery time, but the connected electronics
load should not exceed the ECM rating.

For LGH models supplied with a UPS, refer to
the separate UPS manual for operation and
specifications.

SITENET® INTEGRATOR®

Refer to the Integrator Electrical Connection
Diagram on page 21 for specifics regarding
installation.

The SiteNet Integrator is a separate rackmount
unit that communicates status of the UPS and
LGH. The option consists of a SiteNet Integrator
module that is typically mounted in the top of the
LGH cabinet.

The SiteNet Integrator is powered by one or two
externally mounted power supplies. One is
standard, the second is optional. These power
supplies provide the 9VDC required to power the
Integrator module. One supply will be plugged
into the UPS or the UPS outlet strip located in
the rear hinge side of the cabinet. The output
cable is plugged into the SiteNet Integrator
Power Supply Main input receptacle/socket. The
(optional) second supply will be plugged into the
electrical service power inlet in the lower rear of
the LGH cabinet. The supply's output cable is
plugged into the SiteNet Integrator Power
Supply Aux input receptacle/socket.

8

An optional UPS status communication cable is
available that allows transmission of information
between the UPS and the SiteNet Integrator.
This cable will plug into the 25 pin D Type
connector on the rear of the UPS marked DB­25P. The opposite end of the cable in plugged
into the 9 pin D Type receptacle on the rear of
the SiteNet Integrator marked UPS RS-232 DB­9P.

SENSOR OPTIONS

Door Ajar -- This option consists of two normally
open switches that are mounted to the cabinet
front and rear frame supports. The switches will
indicate by the position of the doors (opened or
closed) as determined by the status of the dry­contact inputs to which they are connected on
the rear of the SiteNet Integrator.

Temperature and Humidity Sensors (Internal
and External) -- The sensors allow monitoring

of temperature and humidity status by the
SiteNet Integrator. The internal option is for
installation inside the LGH cabinet and is
supplied with a 12 foot (3.6 m) cord for
connection between the temperature/humidity
sensor and the SiteNet Integrator. Refer to the
connection diagram for wiring specifics. The
external option is supplied with a 30 foot (0.1 m)
cord for monitoring of temperature humidity
status outside the LGH cabinet. The sensor and
connections for both options are identical.

Water Detect -- The water detect option
includes a Liquitect (LT-400S) dry contact
sensor mounted in the bottom of the LGH
cabinet. The sensor is powered by a 24 VDC
power supply mounted in the frame channel of
the LGH cabinet. (Multiple options may share
this same general power supply. The supply is
rated for 1.6 Amps at 24 VDC). The water
detector is connected to the dry-contact input on
the rear of the SiteNet Integrator by a 30 foot
two-conductor cable. The detector may be
relocated outside the LGH cabinet by user
discretion for external water detection.

Remote ECM On-Off Control -- This option
allows on-off control of the ECM by the SiteNet
Integrator. It consists of a 24 VDC Power
Supply with Control Relay that is mounted in the
frame channel of the LGH cabinet. The 24 VDC
power supply may also be used to power other
options. A black SJ two-conductor (black & red)
cable is connected between the power supply
relay normally open contacts and the ECM
power terminal strip (terminals 37 & 38) in the

rear of the ECM. A two-conductor control cable
is connected between the power supply terminal
strips marked "Close to Energize Relay R1" and
the Relay Output K1 terminal strip on the rear of
the SiteNet Integrator. When the relay output
contacts on the SiteNet Integrator close, the
relay in the power supply is energized closing
the normally open contacts and shorting
between terminals 37 & 38 in the rear of the
ECM. This will allow power to be applied to the
ECM and cause the ECM to begin operation if
the ECM On/Off switch is in the On position.
Consequently, de-energizing the relay will allow
the ECM to be turned off remotely by the SiteNet
Integrator.

Smoke Detector Option -- A four-wire smoke
detector with normally open contacts, heat
sensor and sounder alarm is mounted in the top
of the LGH cabinet. The smoke detector is
power by a 24VDC power supply (*) mounted in
the frame channel of the LGH cabinet. The
power supply is normally powered from the UPS
(if available), but may be powered from
utility/mains by customer discretion. Power to
the smoke detector is supplied by a two­conductor cable between the power supply and
the smoke detector. A second two-conductor
cable connects between the smoke detector and
the Integrator dry-contact inputs. If smoke,
flame, or high temperature change are detected,
the normally open contacts of the smoke
detector will close to provide alarm status to the
Integrator. The smoke detector sounder alarm
will also activate. This alarm can be silenced
only by removing power from the smoke
detector. This is accomplished by unplugging
the smoke detector power supply.
*The smoke detector power supply is a general purpose

supply that may be used to power any option requiring 24
VDC. Multiple options may share the same supply. The
supply is rated for 1.6 Amps at 24 VDC.

All the above options are available factory
installed with the order. The options are also
available for field installation. Field installed
options are shipped as kits containing the
sensors with appropriate mounting hardware,
cable, and cable restraint fixtures. Field
installation requires hand tools for termination of
control cables and routing of the cables.

All other standard alarm signals provided by the
LGH (High Temp, Clogged Filter, Cooling
Status) are also pre-wired for monitoring by the
SiteNet Integrator.

Glass House.

-Remove the screws retaining the access plate
at top left rear of ECM. Remove the plate and
tuck the ECM power cord and plug inside the
opening to allow the ECM to pass beneath the
UPS or mounted shelves. For models including
a UPS, do not replace this access panel until
after ECM has been removed.

-Models containing a 60 Hz ECM80 require the
removal of the plug from the ECM power cord.
Once removed the power cord strain relief may
be loosened to allow the power cord to slide
through when the ECM is withdrawn from the
cabinet. Observe wiring polarity when
reinstalling the plug on the replacement unit.

-If connected, remove customer wiring to ECM
compressor power contact and/or remote
shutdown/startup contact.

-Remove four screws retaining the front
electrical panel. Pivot panel to the left. Cables
are long enough to move the box out of the way
so the Environmental Control Module can be
pulled forward after removing four rack mount
screws.

-Replace cable access cover on ECM. Package
unit for return to Liebert.

-Install the replacement ECM.
