Q: Can the door system be used with any cabinet?

system to the top of the cabinet.

Cabinet heights from 42U to 52U.
Q: What aisle widths will the door system work with?

double doors.
Q: What is the door opening width?
A: The door opening
is 32” for the single door and 44” for the double door.
Q: What aisle lengths are available for Cold Aisle Containment?
A: CPI offers standard part number configurations for cabinet aisle lengths of
12’ (3.6 m) to
52’ (16 m). Each of these systems includes a telescoping roof section that can infinitely
adjust the roof system an additional
8” (200 mm) in length.
Q: What aisle widths are available?
A: CPI offers the cold aisle containment roof system in two standard aisle widths of 48 and
72
” (1.2 amd 1.8 meters) or 2 and 3 floor tiles. The design of the roof system
accommodates about 2 inches of compliance in the row width. CPI cabinets are
recommended, however, if your application includes other manufacturer’s cabinets, contact
CPI Technical Support.
Q: What if my cabinets have varying heights?
A: The simplest installation results when all cabinets are of a consistent height. If the
tallest frames in an aisle are relatively evenly distributed along the length of the aisle (and
along both sides of the aisle), and have an adequate load rating to support the additional
weight of the roof structure, lower cabinets can be sealed to the roof structure with the drop-
down sealing panels (see CPI PNs 32720 and 32728)
. If not, consider CPI’s Frame
Supported Hot Aisle Containment Solution.
