APC by Schneider Electric Hyperpod Frame - 6FT Aisle END Panel (X2) Tall Frame - FS-FM-4004-B

APC by Schneider Electric FS-FM-4004-B Hyperpod 6FT Aisle End Panel (2-Pack)

Overview

The APC by Schneider Electric FS-FM-4004-B delivers a pair of tall aisle end panels designed for Hyperpod frame containment systems. At 1979mm (approximately 6.5 ft) in height and just 40mm deep, each panel closes off the end of a hot-aisle or cold-aisle containment row without eating into floor space. The factory-new black finish integrates cleanly with standard APC Hyperpod infrastructure. Both panels ship together in a single package, which simplifies procurement when you're building out or extending an aisle containment run.

Key Features

• 1979mm Tall Profile: At just under 2 meters, these panels seal the full vertical span of a standard Hyperpod tall-frame aisle row — no gaps at the top that would let conditioned air bleed into the hot aisle and undermine containment efficiency.
• 40mm Panel Depth: The slim 40mm depth keeps the end cap from extending into walkways or conflicting with cable trays and overhead infrastructure running at aisle ends — a common installation constraint in dense rows.
• 520mm Width per Panel: Sized to span a standard aisle end opening on Hyperpod tall-frame configurations. Confirm your aisle width matches before ordering — Hyperpod frames have specific panel-width requirements per row geometry.
• Factory Black Finish: Matches standard APC Hyperpod frame color — no repainting or mismatched aesthetics in mixed-vendor data center environments.
• 2-Panel Pack (FS-FM-4004-B): Both ends of a single aisle row are covered by one SKU, which reduces line items on a purchase order and ensures matched panels from the same production run.
• UL, cUL, and CE Listed: Meets North American (UL/cUL) and European (CE) safety listing requirements — relevant if your facility's electrical inspection or insurance carrier requires listed enclosure components throughout the data center.

Integration and Compatibility

The FS-FM-4004-B (often searched as FS FM 4004 B) is engineered specifically for APC's Hyperpod tall-frame aisle containment system. It is not a universal panel — confirm the frame series and aisle geometry before deploying. If you are expanding an existing Hyperpod installation, verify your current frame revision accepts this panel model. Mixing panel generations can create gaps or alignment issues that defeat containment. For complete aisle containment builds, pair these end panels with compatible Hyperpod overhead canopy sections and door assemblies from the same APC Hyperpod line.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How many panels are included with the FS-FM-4004-B?

A: The FS-FM-4004-B ships as a 2-panel pack — one for each end of a single aisle containment row.

Q: What certifications does the FS-FM-4004-B carry?

A: The FS-FM-4004-B is UL, cUL, and CE listed, covering North American and European safety compliance requirements.

Q: What is the panel height, and does it cover a full standard rack aisle?

A: Each panel measures 1979mm tall — sized to close the full vertical span of a Hyperpod tall-frame aisle end without leaving gaps that would compromise hot/cold aisle containment.

Q: Will the FS-FM-4004-B work with non-APC aisle containment frames?

A: These panels are designed for the APC Hyperpod tall-frame system specifically. Compatibility with third-party containment frames is not verified — confirm frame compatibility before purchasing.

Q: What is the warranty on the FS-FM-4004-B?

A: APC provides a 1-year manufacturer warranty on the FS-FM-4004-B.

Jerry Tildsen

The FS-FM-4004-B is a straightforward containment component, but the 1979mm height spec matters more than most buyers realize — short-framing an aisle end by even a few centimeters creates bypass airflow paths that can measurably raise inlet temperatures on the servers closest to that end, even when the rest of the containment system is properly sealed.

Technical Highlights:

• Panel Height (1979mm): Tall enough to close a standard Hyperpod tall-frame aisle end completely — no supplemental gap fillers or custom fabrication required.
• Panel Depth (40mm): Slim enough to install without conflicting with end-of-row cable management or overhead ladder trays, which are almost always present at aisle terminations in production data centers.
• 2-Pack Configuration: Covers both ends of one aisle row in a single purchase, which also ensures both panels come from the same manufacturing batch — useful when cosmetic consistency across a customer-facing data center floor matters.

Deployment Considerations:

• Verify your Hyperpod frame revision and aisle width (520mm panel width is fixed) before procurement — ordering the wrong panel width for your row geometry means the panel won't seat correctly and containment integrity is compromised from day one.
• The 23kg package weight for the pair is manageable for two-person installation, but plan for it — end panels at 1979mm are awkward to position alone in a live row with active cable runs already in place.

Best fit for data center teams commissioning or extending APC Hyperpod tall-frame hot-aisle or cold-aisle containment in colocation, enterprise, or edge deployments where UL/cUL/CE listing is a facility compliance requirement.
