Table 5. Electrical
Electrical characteristics	Properties
kVA (maximum)	1.428⁶
Rated voltage and frequency¹	200 - 240 V ac at 50/60 plus or minus 3 Hz
Thermal output (maximum)^2, 4	4778 Btu/hr
Maximum power consumption^{3, 4}	1400 W
Power factor	0.98
Inrush current (maximum)	88 A
Leakage current (maximum)	3 mA ⁵
Phase	1
Dual power feature code	Included
Branch circuit breaker	20 A maximum
Note: The power supplies automatically accept any voltage with the published, rated-voltage range. If dual power supplies are installed and operating, the power supplies draw approximately equal current from the utility (mains) and provide approximately equal current to the load. Thermal output value is for each 4-core drawer configuration. Maximum power consumption is specified for each 9117-MMA 8-core drawer. The 16-core, 24-core, and 32-core configurations are based on the use of multiple 8-core drawers (for example, an 16-core configuration consists of two 8-core drawers, a 24-core configuration consists of three 8-core drawers, and a 32-core configuration consists of four 8-core drawers). Power draw and heat load vary greatly by configuration. When planning for an electrical system, it is important to use maximum values. However, when planning for heat load, you can use the IBM® Systems Energy Estimator to obtain a heat output estimate based on a specific configuration. See The IBM Systems Energy Estimator Web site for more information. Measured according to IEC 60950. To calculate the amperage, multiply the kVA by 1000 and divide that number by the operating voltage.

¹The allowable operating temperature is dependent on the installation altitude. The maximum upper limit dry bulb temperature is 35°C, up to an elevation of 900 m above sea level. The upper limit temperature is derated by 1°C per 300 m above 900 m, up to an elevation of 2400 m. The upper limit temperature is derated by 1°C per 143 m above 900 m for elevations between 2400 and 3050 m. Figure 1. Elevation and temperature

L_WAD is the statistical upper-limit A-weighted sound power level (rounded to the nearest 0.1). L_PAM is the mean A-weighted emission sound pressure level measured at the 1–meter bystander positions (rounded to the nearest dB). 10 dB (decibel) = 1 B (bel). All measurements made in conformance with ISO 7779 and declared in conformance with ISO 9296. 19 in. acoustical doors are available: 1.8 m FC 6248, 2 m FC 6249. Acoustical doors provide approximately 0.5 bels sound power and 5 dB sound pressure level attenuation.

Special Hardware Management Console considerations

When the server is managed by a Hardware Management Console (HMC), the console must be provided within the same room and within 8 m (26 ft) of the server.

Note: As an alternative to the local HMC requirement, it is acceptable for you to provide a supported device, such as a PC, with connectivity and authority to operate through a remotely attached HMC. This local device must be in the same room and within 8 m (26 ft) of your server, and provide functional capability equivalent to the HMC that it replaces and that is needed by the service representative to service the system.

Delivery and subsequent transportation of the equipment

DANGER

Heavy equipment—personal injury or equipment damage might result if mishandled. (D006)

You must prepare your environment to accept the new product based on the installation planning information provided, with assistance from an IBM Installation Planning Representative (IPR) or IBM authorized service provider. In anticipation of the equipment delivery, prepare the final installation site in advance so that professional movers or riggers can transport the equipment to the final installation site within the computer room. If for some reason, this is not possible at the time of delivery, you must make arrangements to have professional movers or riggers return to finish the transportation at a later date. Only professional movers or riggers should transport the equipment. The IBM authorized service provider can only perform minimal frame repositioning within the computer room, as needed, to perform required service actions. You are also responsible for using professional movers or riggers when you relocate or dispose of equipment.
