Power Considerations for the HP NetServer LXr 8000
The HP NetServer LXr 8000 can be configured in either of two voltages: 208, or
230/240 VAC. Power supply (UPS) and distribution (PDU) components are
available to support these configurations.
Power considerations for the HP NetServer LXr 8000 include:
◊ available in 208 VAC model for the U. S. market
◊ available in either 208 VAC or 230/240 VAC models for international
markets
◊ Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) models rated at 3000 Watts are
available in both voltages
◊ for both 208 and 230/240 voltages, two Power Distribution Unit
(PDU) models (rated 10 A and 16 A) are available
◊ one, two or three PDUs can be used in each rack enclosure, depending
upon requirements for power, current, and number of receptacles
◊ the appropriate power cord for each server is shipped according to
local requirements; refer to Table 3-1 for details
208V PDU Rack Power Configurations
The 208 VAC PDU power configurations appear as shown below in Table
2-3 and Figure 2-8.
Recommended 208 VAC Power Configurations
In the United States, if you are using a UPS use PDU model E7671A or E7672A.
Attach the IEC 320 C-19 end of the E7801A cord to the
PDU and attach the L6-
20 end of the same cord to the NEMA L6-20 receptacle on the UPS.
Alternate 208 VAC Power Configurations
In the 208 VAC case, without a UPS, make sure your power system has the
capacity to support the power and current needs of the components you will
power. (See the section titled "Site Preparation: Circuit Breakers.") If power and
current capacity are adequate, plug the
PDU into a 208 V, L6-20 receptacle.
