GENERAL SAFETY GUIDELINES
WARNING
!
Risk of top-heavy unit falling over. Can cause death or injury.
Improper handling can cause equipment damage, injury, or death. Read all of the following
instructions before attempting to move, lift, remove packaging from the unit, or preparing
unit for installation.
WARNING
!
Risk of explosive discharge. Can cause death or injury.
This unit contains fluids and/or gases under high pressure. Relieve system pressure before
cutting into or disconnecting piping or piping components.
WARNING
!
Risk of high-speed moving parts. Can cause death or injury.
Disconnect all local and remote electric power supplies before working in the unit.
WARNING
!
Risk of electric shock. Can cause death or injury.
Disconnect both power cords from the electrical supply outlets or from the receptacles on the
back of the unit before working within.
CAUTION
!
Risk of overhead interference. Can damage unit or structure.
The unit may be too tall to fit through a doorway while on the skid. Measure the unit and
doorway heights and refer to the installation plans before moving the unit to verify
clearances.
CAUTION
!
Risk of sharp edges, splinters and exposed fasteners. Can cause personal injury.
Only properly trained personnel wearing appropriate safety headgear, gloves, shoes and
glasses should attempt to move, lift, remove packaging from, or prepare unit for installation.
CAUTION
!
Risk of improper operation and overpressurization. Can result in injury or property damage.
Only qualified personnel trained in HVAC installation or service should install or service this
equipment.
Read all installation, operating and safety instructions before proceeding.
Fluorinated Greenhouse Gas Requirements—European Union
Stationary air conditioning, refrigeration, heat pump equipments and stationary fire protection systems in the European Community market and operating with fluorinated greenhouse gases (f-gas),
such as R407C, R134a, R410A, must comply with the F-Gas Regulation: (EC) No. 842/2006 (F-gas).
The regulation prohibits, among other actions, venting fluorinated greenhouse gases to the atmosphere.
The F-Gas Regulation also requires operators to use use all measures that are technically feasible
and do not entail disproportionate cost to prevent leakage of these gases, to test for leakage regularly
and to recover f-gas during equipment service and maintenance and before disposing of equipment.
Refer to the full regulation for additional details.

2.0 INTRODUCTION
2.1 Product Description
The Liebert XDH cooling module is designed to be placed within a row of server enclosures in a hotaisle-cold-aisle arrangement. The Liebert XDH, available in a half-rack-width unit, is intended for
use with a Liebert XD pumped refrigerant cooling system, supplied by either a Liebert XDP or Liebert
XDC.
Warmer air from the enclosures is drawn in through the rear of the Liebert XDH, cooled and blown
into the cold aisle in a diffuse pattern. The cooling air is then drawn into the enclosures to cool the
equipment.
The Liebert XDH has dual refrigeration circuits, one in the upper half of the unit and the other in the
lower half. This permits increasing and decreasing cooling levels in response to server room conditions. The dual refrigeration circuits permits interlaced connection of two Liebert XD refrigerant
sources to enhance system reliability.
Controls on the front of the Liebert XDH permit independent operation of the two banks of fans. Dual
power connections ensure continued fan operation if one of two electrical sources fails.
The Liebert XDH is intended for use in low-humidity environments and does not need a drain connection. A condensate pan under each refrigeration unit collects the small amount of moisture expected
in the server room. An optional, factory-installed condensate detection system is available. The Liebert XDH is available with uni-directional or bi-directional air diffusers.
Introduction
2.2 References
This document must be used together with site specific documentation and documentation for other
parts of the system.
2.3 Pre-Installation Checks
• Verify that the Liebert XDH voltage matches the available utility power. The serial tag with this
information is accessible by opening the Liebert XDH’s rear door. The tag is on a shelf near the
Liebert XDH’s midline.
• Check the received materials to be sure all required assemblies and parts have been received. If
you discover any external damage, report it to the shipping company and your local Liebert representative.
2.4 Parts Included With the Liebert XDH
• User manual (this document)
• Liebert XDH module
• Power cords
• Shipping/floor mounting brackets
• Tie-down bracket assembly
• Diffusers (top and bottom)

2.5 Installation Considerations
The Liebert XDH is designed for placement within a row of computer cabinets in the data center in a
hot-aisle-cold-aisle arrangement. The Liebert XDH is 12" (305mm) wide, so it takes up little space.
For installation arrangement, see 4.2 - Installing the Liebert XDH Within the Enclosure Row.
Be sure to follow all applicable codes.
Determine whether the Liebert XDH includes the condensate detection option (factory-installed).
This option will require separate low voltage connections to a monitoring unit. A front panel alarm
and indicator alert the user to condensation inside the unit. To minimize the possibility of condensation, insulate all piping between the Liebert XDH and the Liebert XDP or Liebert XDC.
If the Liebert XDH is installed at the end of a row, Liebert recommends using uni-directional air diffusers to direct cooling air into the cold aisle, toward the equipment racks. If the Liebert XDH is
installed between racks within a row, Liebert recommends using bi-directional air diffusers, directing
the cooling air toward the equipment racks on either side of the Liebert XDH.
Table 1 Application limits

Minimum Maximum Dry Bulb Temperature Relative Humidity

2.5.1 Room Preparation
The room should be well-insulated and must have a sealed vapor barrier. The vapor barrier in the
ceiling and walls can be a polyethylene film. Paint on concrete walls and floors should contain either
rubber or plastic.
Introduction
NOTE
The vapor barrier is the single most important requirement for maintaining environmental
control in the conditioned space.
Outside or fresh air should be kept to a minimum when temperature and humidity must be tightly
controlled. Outside air adds to the cooling, heating, dehumidifying and humidifying loads of the site.
Doors should be properly sealed to minimize leaks and should not contain ventilation grilles.

3.0 GENERAL PRODUCT INFORMATION
3.1 Product/System Description
The Liebert XDH is designed for placement within a row of computer cabinets in the data center in a
hot-aisle-cold-aisle arrangement to maximize the Liebert XDH’s cooling: The unit takes in hot air
through the rear from the hot aisle, cools the air by air-to-fluid heat exchangers and discharges the
air through the front of the unit into the cold aisle.
Chilled R-134a refrigerant is provided to the Liebert XDH by a Liebert XD Pumping unit (Liebert
XDP) or by a Liebert XD Chiller (Liebert XDC). The Liebert XDH may be installed in a Liebert XD
piping system that includes other Liebert XD cooling modules, such as the Liebert XDO, Liebert XDV
or Liebert XD CoolFrame.
Replaceable front panels on the Liebert XDH may be customized to match the appearance of various
computer manufacturer’s equipment, allowing the Liebert XDH to blend in with adjacent server
equipment and enclosures. Air diffusers are available to direct cooling air for more efficient cooling,
depending on the Liebert XDH’s positioning in a row or at the end of a row.
The Liebert XDH is not expected to produce any condensation because of its location, usually in the
data center. A condensate pan is provided as a precaution. It does not have a drain fitting or other
means of being emptied.
A Liebert Liqui-tect moisture detection device and a contact-closure output are available as an option.
These options detect condensation in the Liebert XDH’s catch pan and connect to a monitoring or
alarm system. A front panel alarm and indicator alert the user to condensation inside the unit.
General product information
The complete cooling system consists of Liebert XDH modules, Liebert XDP or Liebert XDC pumped
refrigerant distribution units, power and signal cabling and interconnecting piping, see Figure 3
below.

3.2 Checking and Unpacking
When the Liebert XDH is delivered, inspect all items for either visible or concealed damage. Damage
should be immediately reported to the carrier and a damage claim filed with a copy sent to Liebert or
to your sales representative. If you later find any concealed damage, report it to the shipping company
and your local Liebert representative.
