APC by Schneider Electric ACAC11008 InRow OA END Aisle Containment KIT - 42U
Overview
The APC by Schneider Electric ACAC11008 is an End Aisle Containment Kit designed to enhance the thermal management of InRow cooling systems. This accessory deploys at the end of an aisle to create a barrier, preventing the mixing of hot and cold air streams. By isolating the cold air supply and hot air exhaust, it directly improves cooling efficiency and prevents bypass airflow, which is critical for maintaining optimal operating temperatures in dense IT environments. This kit is specifically engineered for 42U rack heights.
Compatibility
This containment kit is compatible with APC by Schneider Electric's InRow cooling systems. It is designed to integrate with standard 42U rack enclosures, providing a sealed environment for cold air delivery and hot air return when placed at the end of an aisle. Ensure your existing InRow cooling infrastructure is designed to work with aisle containment solutions.
Installation Notes
The ACAC11008 measures 190 mm wide by 2228 mm high (7.5" x 88"), fitting standard 42U racks. Installation involves securing the kit to the rack and the floor to create a sealed aisle. Proper sealing is paramount for the effectiveness of the containment system. The unit weighs 26.84 lbs, requiring careful handling during installation. This is a rack cooling accessory intended for professional installation within a data center or server room environment.
