Vertiv GL-EC-48-3246 Exhaust Chimney

Overview

The Vertiv GL-EC-48-3246 is an adjustable exhaust chimney designed to manage heat exhaust from rack-mounted equipment. This unit is specifically built for 48-inch deep racks and offers an adjustable height range from 32 to 46 inches. Proper thermal management is critical for maintaining equipment performance and preventing thermal shutdowns in dense IT environments. This chimney directs hot air exhaust upwards, away from cool intake air, thereby improving overall rack cooling efficiency and preventing recirculation.

Compatibility

This exhaust chimney is designed for use with standard 19-inch wide racks that are 48 inches deep. It is compatible with a wide range of server, network, and storage equipment installed within these racks. The adjustable height ensures it can accommodate various equipment heights and configurations within the specified depth and height range. It is suitable for deployment in enterprise data centers and colocation facilities where controlled airflow is paramount.

Installation Notes

Installation requires mounting the chimney to the rear of the rack enclosure. The adjustable telescoping design allows for precise fitting between the top of the equipment and the top of the rack or the next equipment level. Ensure the chimney is securely fastened to prevent vibration or movement. The unit is designed to work with standard rack mounting hardware, which may need to be sourced separately depending on the rack system.
