9.5.5 Installing 2T sensors on racks

Both temperature sensors attached to a 2T sensor housing are to be installed on 1 rack. The sensor

can be attached to the inside or outside of the rack's front door.

• One temperature sensor is to be attached near the top of the rack’s front door by using a cable tie

to secure the wire to the perforation (approx. 12" [305mm] from the top). Do not wrap a cable tie

around the actual sensor on the end of the wire. This sensor will monitor for hot air wrapping over

the top of the rack from the hot aisle.

• The other temperature sensor is to be attached to the rack's front door, centered in front of the

heat generating equipment that will be drawing in air.

• If the rack is completely filled with equipment, locate the sensor in the middle of the door,

width and height.

• If the rack is partially filled with equipment, locate the sensor in the center of the equipment

on the front door.

• Do NOT

• Install a sensor in the hot aisle
• Leave a sensor coiled on top of or inside the rack.

• With the temperature sensors in place, neatly route the wires up the rack door and into the rack

using the supplied cable ties. Be sure to leave an appropriate amount of slack in the cable to allow

the rack door to open and close without binding or pinching the wires.

• Affix the 2T sensor housing to the rack using the supplied hook-and-loop fastener. It is recom-

mended that the housing be installed in an easily accessible space with the sensor number label

visible in case the housing needs accessed at a later time.

• Repeat this process until all sensors have been installed.
