Table 7. Electrical
Electrical characteristics	Properties
kVA (maximum)	1.546 kVA⁴
Rated voltage and frequency¹	100 - 127 V ac or 200 - 240 V ac at 50/60 plus or minus 3 Hz
Thermal output (maximum)²	5120 Btu/hr
Maximum power consumption²	1500 W
Power factor	0.97
Inrush current (maximum)	90 A
Leakage current (maximum)	1.6 mA³
Phase	1
Dual power feature code	7707 (2x)
Branch circuit breaker	20 A maximum
Notes: The power supplies automatically accept any voltage with the published, rated-voltage range. If dual power supplies are installed and operating, the power supplies draw approximately equal current from the utility (mains) and provide approximately equal current to the load. Power draw and heat load vary greatly by configuration. When planning for an electrical system, it is important to use maximum values. However, when planning for heat load, you can use the IBM® Systems Energy Estimator to obtain a heat output estimate based on a specific configuration. See The IBM Systems Energy Estimator Web site for more information. Measured according to IEC 60950. To calculate the amperage, multiply the kVA by 1000 and divide that number by the operating voltage.

Table 8. Environment requirements
Environment	Temperature
Operating temperature range	5 - 35 °C (41 - 95 °F)
Nonoperating temperature	5 - 40 °C (41 - 104 °F)

	Operating	Nonoperating
Maximum dew point	17 °C (62.6 - °F)	27 °C (80.6 - °F)
Noncondensing humidity	8 - 80%	8 - 80% (5 - 100% shipping)

Special Hardware Management Console considerations

When the server is managed by a Hardware Management Console (HMC), the console must be provided within the same room and within 8 m (26 ft) of the server. For additional considerations, see Planning for consoles, interfaces, and terminals for your service environment.

Note: As an alternative to the local HMC requirement, it is acceptable for you to provide a supported device, such as a PC, with connectivity and authority to operate through a remotely attached HMC. This local device must be in the same room and within 8 m (26 ft) of your server, and provide functional capability equivalent to the HMC that it replaces and that is needed by the service representative to service the system.
