ATE Core Configurations Generation 2 System Power Dissipation Ratings
The following graph provides the maximum temperature rise above ambient for an ATE Core Configurations Generation 2 system at maximum power.
Ensure all equipment integrated into the system is certified for an ambient temperature of the system intake plus this temperature rise. You may interpolate the values in this graph.
Notice The total power
dissipation of equipment in the ATE-15U should never exceed 3.6 kW to prevent damage to rack hardware.
Notice The total power dissipation
of equipment in the ATE-38U/44U should
never exceed 11 kW to prevent damage to rack
hardware.
Notice The total power dissipation
of equipment in the ATE-38E should
never exceed 8 kW to prevent damage to rack
hardware.
Temperature rise is the difference between the average fan exhaust temperature and the ambient air intake temperature.
Power dissipation is the total rack power dissipated inside the rack, which
includes equipment and rack infrastructure components. Infrastructure components
include the RCU, fan panels, AC/DC power supplies, RMX-10151 Single Phase PDUs, and DC PDUs. Power for these
components is dependent on RCU usage and fan speed, but should not exceed 300 W in the ATE-15U and 400 W in the ATE-38U/44U and ATE-38E. Power dissipated outside of the rack does not
contribute to the power dissipation shown in this plot. For systems that include
integrated equipment, the power dissipated by that equipment must be subtracted from
the total power. Integrated equipment power dissipation can be found in the
equipment user manual.
Caution The system power dissipation was
certified on a fully enclosed system with no openings. The system must be fully
enclosed or additional evaluation and testing will be required to determine
maximum internal temperatures.
Attention La dissipation d’énergie du
système a été certifiée sur un système entièrement fermé, sans ouverture. Le
système doit être entièrement fermé. Sinon, une évaluation et des tests
supplémentaires seront nécessaires pour déterminer les températures internes
maximales.
Notice ATE Core Configurations
Generation 2 systems contain adequate cooling capacity
to provide an internal rack ambient temperature necessary to support properly
rated and installed equipment. The above graph shows the typical performance for
properly installed equipment, and does not guarantee thermal performance of
equipment in the rack.
