Tripp Lite SRCOOL18K User Manual

Portable AC Unit for Server Rooms - 18,000 BTU,
208/240V

MODEL NUMBER: SRCOOL18K

Portable, self-contained 18,000 BTU server rack cooling system perfect for supplemental or backup
cooling in server rooms and data centers, and as primary cooling in wiring closets and other IT
environments without facility air conditioning.

Description

The SRCOOL18K SmartRack 18,000 BTU 208/240V Portable Rack Air Conditioner cools, dehumidifies
and filters the air in your server room, data center or other environment with heat-sensitive equipment.
The compact, portable unit fits into just 4 square feet of floor space. It is designed for supplemental or
backup cooling of IT equipment to prevent shutdowns, malfunctions and costly downtime caused by
overheating or fluctuating temperatures.
The self-contained SRCOOL18K packs 18,000 BTU/h (5.275 kW) of cooling capacity into a rack-width
chassis. A built-in evaporator expels condensation through a directional exhaust duct, eliminating the
need for a floor drain or water collection tank. The SRCOOL18K also dehumidifies and filters the air,
providing better air quality that can enhance equipment performance. Efficient close-coupled cooling
reduces energy use and operating costs.
Installation is quick and easy and does not require disruptive construction or the costly expense of hiring a
plumber or HVAC specialist. The SRCOOL18K rolls into place on durable built-in casters. The NEMA L6­20P plug connects to a standard 208/240V 20A outlet. The unit restarts automatically after power failures,
and a built-in timer supports unattended shutdown and startup.
By installing the optional SRCOOLNET2LX network management card (sold separately), you can monitor
temperatures, receive alerts, review logs, automate operation and control settings from anywhere via
SNMP, web browser, SSH or telnet. The SRCOOLNET2LX includes the ENVIROSENSE remote sensor,
which lets you monitor temperature and humidity up to 12-ft. (3.66 m) away from the SRCOOL18K.
