1. Important Safety Instructions
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This manual contains instructions and warnings that must be followed during the installation of the products described in this manual.
Read ALL instructions before attempting to install these products. Failure to comply may invalidate the warranty and cause serious property
damage and/or personal injury. Also see the safety instructions contained in the SRCOOL33K Unpacking Instructions and Owner's Manual.
2. Preparing the Installation Site
The SRCOOL33K provides a self-contained cooling solution for small server rooms, wiring closets and similar applications. It is also suitable
for supplemental cooling in large IT rooms and data centers. The following installation instructions are applicable to any application.
• Ensure that the room in which the SRCOOL33K will be installed is insulated to minimize thermal loads.
• To minimize migration of moisture, it is recommended that the room be sealed with a vapor barrier, e.g. polyethylene sheeting. Concrete
floors and walls should be treated with a rubber- or plastic-based paint.
• Condenser airspace MUST be capable of dissipating up to 55,000 BTU (16kW) of heat and supplying air between 32°F-104°F
(0°C-40°C) to and from the unit at a rate of 1012 CFM (1720 m
• A minimum of 36 in. (914 mm) of clear floor space in front of and behind the unit is required for routine service/repair access. For major
repairs requiring side access, 20 in. (508 mm) of clear space on either side must be provided. This may necessitate moving the unit from
its installation site. At least 48 in. (1219 mm) of clear floor space is required to provide complete front, rear and side access.
• Ensure that appropriate electrical service (Nominal 208-240V AC input, 60 Hz) is available at the installation site. The SRCOOL33K is
furnished with two points of mains power input and can receive power via attached 10 ft. power cord with L6-30 plug.
3. Positioning the Unit
Using a forklift or pallet jack, move the unit as close to its permanent installation location as possible before unpacking and removing it from
the shipping pallet. See the SRCOOL33K Unpacking Instructions for full details.
Select an installation site that is structurally sound, with a level floor that is able to bear the weight of the unit, plus any other racks and/or
equipment that will be installed nearby. Ensure that the installation site provides sufficient front, back and side clearances. The unit can be
positioned in a row of rack enclosures, or in a stand-alone configuration.
Prior to final placement, use a carpenter's level to check the slope of the floor. If the floor slope is excessive, choose another installation site.
The unit is furnished with casters for final placement in its installation location. The casters are intended to move the unit over a short
distance on a level, smooth, stable surface only. They are not designed to roll the unit over long distances. WARNING: When rolling the
unit, do not pull it toward you. Push it into position.
4. Leveling the Unit
After the unit is positioned in its permanent installation location, it must be leveled. Using an 18 mm open-end wrench, lower each leveler
until it reaches the floor. Make sure each leveler makes firm contact with the floor. Lower a leveler by turning it clockwise; raise a leveler by
turning it counter-clockwise.
After lowering each leveler, use a carpenter's level to confirm that the unit is level in all directions. Adjust the levelers as required until the
unit is level.
5. Stabilization and Baying
5.1 Stabilization
For additional stability, the two shipping brackets and their associated hardware may be used to secure the unit to mounting points on the
floor. Attach the brackets to mounting points on the floor using Tripp Lite's SmartRack Bolt-Down Kit (model SRBOLTDOWN) or user-supplied
hardware.
