APC by Schneider Electric Hyperpod Roof - 6FT Aisle Simple Roof Panel 300MM - FS-RF-2004-U

APC by Schneider Electric FS-RF-2004-U Hyperpod Aisle Containment Roof Panel

Overview

The APC by Schneider Electric FS-RF-2004-U is a 300mm-wide, 6-foot aisle simple roof panel designed for Hyperpod hot- or cold-aisle containment systems in structured data center environments. At 2056mm deep and just 15mm tall, this panel fills the overhead span between containment frame bays without adding measurable obstruction to the aisle volume — keeping the contained air column intact from floor level to the top of the containment structure.

Aisle containment is one of the highest-ROI interventions available in an existing raised-floor or slab data center: separating hot exhaust from cold supply air can cut cooling overhead by 20–40% depending on baseline mixing levels. The FS-RF-2004-U is the panel-level component that closes the roof plane of that containment envelope. Getting the roof panels right — correct width, correct depth, correct fit to the frame — is what separates a tight containment system from one that leaks enough mixed air to undermine the whole investment.

The panel ships in black to match standard Hyperpod containment hardware and carries UL, cUL, and CE certifications, satisfying the electrical safety and construction requirements common to North American and European facilities.

Key Features

• 300mm Panel Width: matches the 300mm Hyperpod bay increment directly — no field cutting or shimming required, which matters on large deployments where roof panel count runs into the dozens.
• 2056mm Panel Depth (6 ft): spans a standard 600mm or 700mm-deep cabinet row end-to-end in a single panel, eliminating seams mid-aisle that become air-leak points over time.
• 15mm Panel Height: the minimal profile keeps the panel from encroaching on usable aisle clearance or conflicting with overhead cable trays routed just above the containment frame.
• UL, cUL, and CE Certified: meets electrical safety construction standards for US, Canadian, and EU facilities — relevant for enterprise compliance teams that require certified materials in the data hall.
• Black Finish: matches the Hyperpod containment frame and door hardware so the assembled containment corridor presents as a coherent system rather than a patchwork of mismatched components.
• 1-Year Manufacturer Warranty: APC covers the panel for one year from purchase, consistent with passive infrastructure components in the Hyperpod line.

Integration and Compatibility

The FS-RF-2004-U is a Hyperpod system component. It is designed to drop into the Hyperpod containment frame roof channel — not a generic panel that will fit arbitrary aisle containment systems. Confirm your installed Hyperpod frame accepts the 300mm roof panel width before ordering; Hyperpod configurations also support 600mm and other panel widths depending on the aisle layout.

For a complete data center cooling and containment solution, roof panels work in conjunction with Hyperpod end-of-row doors, vertical frame posts, and floor sealing components. The FS-RF-2004-U addresses only the overhead plane — additional panels, doors, and frame hardware are required to close the full aisle envelope. Review the APC by Schneider Electric Hyperpod accessories catalog to identify the correct complementary components for your row configuration.

Facilities integrators specifying data center infrastructure for new builds or retrofits should account for the package dimensions (2120mm × 325mm × 37mm, 4 kg) when planning freight consolidation — these panels ship flat and can be stacked, but the 2120mm package length determines pallet sizing on high-quantity orders.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What aisle containment system is the FS-RF-2004-U designed for?

A: The FS-RF-2004-U is a component of the APC Hyperpod aisle containment system. It is not a universal panel — it is engineered to fit Hyperpod frame roof channels. Verify your installed Hyperpod frame accepts the 300mm panel width before purchasing.

Q: What certifications does the FS-RF-2004-U carry?

A: The panel is certified to UL, cUL (Canadian UL), and CE standards, covering North American and European facilities compliance requirements for data center construction materials.

Q: What are the exact panel dimensions?

A: The panel is 300mm wide, 2056mm deep (approximately 6 feet), and 15mm tall. The shipping package measures 2120mm × 325mm × 37mm and weighs 4 kg.

Q: Is one panel sufficient to complete an aisle containment roof?

A: No. The FS-RF-2004-U covers a single 300mm-wide bay segment. A full aisle roof requires multiple panels scaled to the total aisle width, plus end-of-row doors and vertical frame hardware to seal the complete containment envelope.

Q: What is the warranty on the FS-RF-2004-U?

A: APC covers this panel with a 1-year manufacturer warranty.

Q: Can this panel be used with non-Hyperpod containment frames from other manufacturers?

A: The FS-RF-2004-U is specified as a Hyperpod system component. Fitment with third-party frames is not documented and cannot be confirmed — consult the frame manufacturer's compatibility list before mixing components.

Karl Wilson

The FS-RF-2004-U is the kind of component that gets underspecified until someone orders the wrong width and holds up a containment retrofit by two weeks. At 300mm wide and 2056mm deep, this panel is specifically sized for the Hyperpod bay increment — it is not a cut-to-fit solution, and that precision is exactly the point on a project where you are closing a 20- or 30-bay aisle roof in a single mobilization.

Technical Highlights:

• 2056mm Panel Depth: a single panel spans the full depth of a standard 600–700mm-deep cabinet row, avoiding mid-span seams that are the first failure point in containment integrity checks.
• 15mm Profile Height: at 15mm, the panel clears overhead cable trays and PDU runs without forcing a frame height adjustment — relevant in retrofit scenarios where overhead real estate is already claimed.
• UL/cUL/CE Certification: satisfies the materials compliance requirements that most enterprise facilities teams include in their data center construction standards, which matters when the project requires documented certification submittals.

Deployment Considerations:

• Confirm the installed Hyperpod frame revision accepts the 300mm panel width before finalizing the BOM — Hyperpod configurations vary and the wrong panel width will not seat correctly in the roof channel.
• The 4 kg panel weight and 2120mm package length mean these ship flat and long — factor pallet sizing and freight class on orders of 20+ panels, which is typical for a full-length hot-aisle containment corridor.

This panel belongs on the BOM for any Hyperpod hot- or cold-aisle containment project where the aisle width falls on a 300mm increment — specifically enterprise data halls doing a phased retrofit where getting the roof plane sealed correctly on the first install is cheaper than a re-mobilization.
