Rack Air Distribution Unit 2U 208/230V 50/60HZ – IT Rack Cooling in 2U

The Rack Air Distribution Unit 2U 208/230V 50/60HZ is a compact, high-efficiency air cooling solution designed to protect critical IT equipment in dense racks. Built for 19-inch server cabinets, this 2U air cooler delivers precise airflow where you need it most, helping to prevent hot spots, extend component life, and maintain consistent temperatures across mixed workloads. With 208 V AC and 230 V AC compatibility and a broad 50/60 Hz operating range, it supports global data center environments while maintaining energy efficiency and reliability in a compact footprint.

• 2U rack-mountable design fits standard 19-inch server racks, enabling simple integration into existing infrastructure without requiring additional mounting hardware or space.
• Voltage flexibility for global deployments supports 208 V AC and 230 V AC with a 50/60 Hz footprint, ensuring compatibility with regional power standards and IT room configurations.
• High-performance airflow delivers up to 420 CFM, aggressively moving hot air away from densely packed equipment to maintain cooler inlet temperatures at the rack level.
• Energy-efficient operation consumes approximately 230 W, balancing powerful cooling with lower energy usage and reduced operating costs.
• Rugged IT-grade build in a durable black finish, designed to withstand the demands of data center and network closet environments while remaining visually unobtrusive in professional spaces.

how to install Rack Air Distribution Unit 2U 208/230V 50/60HZ

• Power down all equipment in the rack and verify that the installation area has adequate clearance for airflow and maintenance access.
• Prepare the rack by locating an available 19-inch mounting position at a height that suits the current equipment layout and cable management plan.
• Mount the unit securely into the rack using the included mounting hardware. Ensure the unit is level and firmly fastened to prevent vibration and movement during operation.
• Connect the unit to a compatible 208 V AC or 230 V AC power source that operates within the 50/60 Hz range. Use proper power distribution and ensure that the circuit can handle the unit’s 230 W load.
• Route cables so that inlet and outlet air paths remain unobstructed. Maintain recommended clearances around the front and rear of the unit to maximize cooling efficiency.
• Power the unit on and verify that airflow is directed toward the intended hot zones. Check for smooth operation, listen for unusual noises, and confirm there are no air leaks or vibrations.
• Balance airflow with the rest of the rack’s cooling strategy. If additional airflow management devices are used (e.g., blanking panels, other coolers), ensure coordinated operation to prevent hot spots and optimize cold-aisle conditions.
• Document the installation, including voltage, amperage draw, and airflow measurements. Establish routine maintenance schedules to keep filters, vents, and louvers clean and unobstructed.
