Rack Planning

Please note the following guidelines are for best installation and operation of hardware in Kell’s ComputerVault Pro and ComputerVault Pro RM ranges of cabinets. Specific cabinet sizes are shown for illustration purposes below, but the principles extend to all ComputerVault Pro and ComputerVault Pro RM sizes.

Distribution of thermal load

24U Thernal load

Avoid clustering hot-running devices such as servers, dense RAID arrays and large VoIP switches in one part of the rack. Distribute the thermal load evenly up and down the rack such that each Kell fan module supports an equal amount of the thermal load, or as close to it as possible. Please allow a minimum 1U gap between all hot-running devices.

The cabinet shown in this example is the model PSE24, which has 2 x fan modules. Models PSE12 and PSE18 each have 1 x fan module, and model PSE38 has 3 x fan modules.

Location for very deep servers

24U Server layout

Each fan module has a triangular metal section protruding slightly into the cabinet (please also see side section drawings in technical drawings section). This does not create an issue for installation of most equipment, but to allow for ample cabling space to the rear, deep servers are generally best installed in the rack spaces above and below these triangular metal protrusions.

d) 1010 mm / 39.5"

Baying cabinets together

Baying Cabinets

When the optional baying kit is used to link cabinets together, the rear sections of the cabinets are open to each other as shown here.

Thermal load in bayed cabinets

Distribution in bayed cabinet

When installing hardware in bayed cabinets, distribute hot-running devices evenly between the cabinets as shown.

Floor space requirements:

Individual cabinets are designed to be pushed back flush against a wall. An air space of 200 mm / 8" on both sides of the cabinet is essential for normal operation.

 

Please note that standard Kell Systems ComputerVault Pro as shown herein are not suitable for use with blade servers. Please refer to Kell's BladeVault™ solution for deployment of these types of devices.

Power Specifications

Internal power distribution:

11 x remote-managed IEC320 outlets on rear panel of built in management system, please refer to Remote Management section for full details on power management functions, including remote reboot by device.

ComputerVault Pro RM power input connection:

All Kell ComputerVault Pro RM have power input via an IEC C19 (male) trailing lead for connection to an in-rack UPS, and an extension cable for connection to a wall outlet. User may choose the preferred way to connect. The extension cables are configured as follows:

UK: IEC C20 female trailing socket to standard UK 3-pin plug
Europe: IEC C20 female trailing socket to Schuko 3-pin plug
USA/Canada: IEC C20 female trailing socket to standard US 3-pin plug
Custom: IEC C20 female trailing socket to any user-specified 3-pin plug

Grounding/Earthing:

All equipment installed within a Kell Systems ComputerVault Pro RM should have conventional grounding/earthing via power cables, but unlike conventional metal-case cabinets, the ComputerVault Pro RM itself has no requirement for additional grounding/earthing in the form of ground strapping or pipe earthing etc. The cabinet shell is constructed entirely from non-conductive materials and the rack is completely isolated from outside contact.

Anti-static measures:

No anti-static measures are required in a Kell Systems ComputerVault Pro RM installation. The rack has full electrical isolation and is not susceptible to static build up that can originate in conventional metal racks by contact with artificial carpet or other flooring materials.

Remote Power Management

A single web-based interface provides:-
Full remote power management functions

  • Power to each device in the rack is switchable on/off individually, by remote command
  • Remote management system connects to in-rack UPS or directly to mains power outlet, 220V to 240V
  • 11 x IEC 320 power outlets on rear panel
  • All devices in the rack plug into remote management system
  • Each power outlet has a user-defined device "name" (server1, server2, etc.)

Environmental Monitoring

A single web-based interface provides:-

Climate monitoring, enclosure cooling fan system status, UPS status and intruder detection

  • Air temperature in the room in which ComputerVault Pro RM is installed
  • Air temperature inside enclosure
  • Humidity inside enclosure
  • Unauthorised access to enclosure (doors opened without permission, etc.)
  • Total mains current draw measurement of ComputerVault Pro RM and all systems installed
  • UPS status (AC power is coming from “main” or “battery”) when used with UPS devices from APC
  • ComputerVault Pro RM cooling fan status in each enclosure exhaust fan module ("OK" or "Fault")

Real-time alerts by email to your pc and/or PDA

  • Temperature in ComputerVault Pro RM: 3 x Administrator-defined states, "normal", "warning" and "critical"
  • Unauthorised access to ComputerVault Pro RM (doors opened, cabinet broken into, etc.)
  • Failure of ComputerVault Pro RM cooling fan systems, with advance warning of any fan performance degradation
  • Power failure to UPS (alerts if UPS has switched to battery power)
  • Each ComputerVault Pro RM in the network may be assigned a local "name" (Bristol, York, etc)
  • Each ComputerVault Pro RM in the network reports its “name” in all alert messages

All intelligence is contained in ComputerVault Pro RM. No software is needed at the management end, unless the administrator wishes to install third party software to convert alarm messages to SMS or pager formats.
