200/100 Site Preparation Guide.
To provide optimum performance with minimum maintenance, your unit must meet environmental
requirements.
The HP Modular Cooling System 200/100 Site Preparation Guide provides information about planning your
unit configuration efficiently and organizing your site location before delivery of your MCS-200 unit.
To route water lines to your MCS-200 unit, use one of the following methods:
•
Through an opening in the raised floor
•
Lying on top of the floor
•
Through the top of the MCS-200 unit
For more information on routing the water lines, see the Hook Up Kit installation instructions in the HP
Modular Cooling System 200/100 Options Installation Guide.
Safety information
The HP Modular Cooling System is tested to the maximum pressure (PS) of 8 bar (116 PSI) without fluid
trapped inside by closed, external valves.
If valves are installed on the external pipe work that could potentially trap fluid inside the MCS-200 unit,
special precautions must be taken. To prevent severe plumbing failure due to extreme pressure, use an
expansion tank with a preinstalled safety valve in the plumbing circuit connected to the unit.
Contaminated water might cause decreased cooling capacity or disruption in
Before you begin the installation process, review the HP Modular Cooling System
