Aisle clearances
Cold aisle clearance
The maximum protrusion of any installed IT component directly impacts the available cold aisle clearance for
removal and replacement of other IT components. Maximum component depth must follow the clear aisle
distance calculations. The following figure shows how to calculate this distance.
The maximum rack face-to-cold aisle wall distance is 39.5 inches. In the figure, X represents any protrusion
into the cold aisle starting from the rack face of the installed IT component (for example, the bezel). Y
represents cold aisle clearance. The cold aisle clearance dictates the maximum depth (D) of any installed IT
component. To find the maximum cold aisle clearance, calculate 100.33 cm (39.5 in) - X = Y.
IMPORTANT:
maximum depth allowed for an installed component.
If any racks contain empty RU space, use the HP POD 20c filler panels to maintain
As the value for X increases, the value for Y decreases, which also decreases the
