RACK SERVERS NEMA 12 CABINET QUESTIONS

For dust free environment.

QUESTION 1
1) How about the fan filter system is it cleanable?

If you are going to place a server or computer item or something that will generate heat in the cabinet then you will either need a fan filter system or the A/C system to control air circulation and heat build up. The fan system is mounted in the top of the rear door of the cabinet.
It is 7" and 235 CFM (Cubic feet per minute).
 

QUESTION  2
2) Are there replacement filters?
The filter can be cleaned by blowing it clean. You can get replacement filters should you need them. By being vigilant during the first installation of your cabinet you should be able to figure out how often you need to clean the filter. Do not let the filter get blocked.

QUESTION 3

) Is there more than one fan available?
NO, only the 7" fan system with the filter.

QUESTION 4
4) Do you have anything to monitor the fan going on and off?
YES, See the electronic and thermostatic fan controllers only the 7" fan system with the filter.
 

QUESTION 5
5)
Are there wheels casters or levelers?

YES, the cabinet ships with the wheels (casters) and levelers in place on the cabinet.
The cabinet also has 3/4" bolt holes in the bottom for bolting it to the floor. The wheels are placed on the cabinet so you can move it. Without the wheels in place you will have a hard time trying to move the cabinet. So if you are going to bolt it to the floor you will then have to remove the wheels. If you are going to leave the wheels on and want to seal the bottom you will have to place the 3/4" bolts into the bottom floor bolting holes.
 

QUESTION 6
6) How does the keyboard thingy work...

Is the cabinet still a dust free environment?

They keyboard and mouse pad require a special door. The keyboard compartment is behind it's own door separated from the rest of the cabinet. You open it's own door and slide the keyboard out through the door on it's shelf. When one you slide it back and close it's own door. You never have to open the large cabinet door to do this.

QUESTION 7
7)
 I want the cabinet completely sealed off?

If you seal up the cabinet completely then you can only place cold non heat generating items inside the cabinet, such as some type of stored non flammable items that will not combust from heat build up by the closed cabinet. The cabinet will need a fan system or A/C system for heat generating items. (see above).

QUESTION 8

There are cable sealing glands for bringing the cable into the cabinet.

Can I Pass Cable in through the top of the cabinet?
Yes, the top of the cabinet has a sealed plate that covers 4 holes. You can pass cable in through them using a pipe and then reseal the pipe where the cables go into it to keep it dust free.

QUESTION 14
14) IS THERE A EVAPORATOR SYSTEM FOR AC DRAIN WATER?
Yes, it is called the Condensate Evaporator. This unit is an electrical powered unit that receives the drain tube from the AC unit into it. When it reaches a certain level the water will be heated to the  point of evaporation. It is 120V 600 Watts. Unit is sold separately.

Venting: An AC venting duct adapter is available for the 2500 to 5000 BTU A/C's with  side mounted unit. It is sold separately should you need it. AC gives off warmed air.

 

ABOUT AC'S CONSIDER THIS: Some people have asked for an AC unit in a cabinet and they are going to  put it in a room where they intend to be working at a desk. (Small room)... Not to discourage you but do you really think you can stand the noise an AC unit would make being completely situated in the same room as you? Also, what about the heat and air given off by the AC unit? It has to go somewhere?  You can pipe it out of the room to the outside air but you still have to deal with the noise of an AC unit. Maybe you should just consider a open rack with shelves and a fan, or a closed cabinet with perf doors and a fan. Or just a 4 post open rack, and consider putting a better room AC unit in the room itself.... Just a thought.
