Sun Storage 6180 Array Specifications

This chapter describes the physical, environmental, and electrical requirements for the Sun Storage 6180 Array. It contains the following sections:


Physical Requirements

The floor space at the installation site must be strong enough to support the combined weight of the cabinet, controller trays, expansion trays, and associated equipment. The site also requires sufficient space for installation, operation, and servicing the arrays and sufficient ventilation to provide a free flow of air to the unit.

Dimensions

TABLE 3-1 provides the physical dimensions and weight of the array trays.


TABLE 3-1 Array Tray Dimensions

Height

Width

Depth

Weight (Fully Populated)

5.1 in.

19 in.

22.5 in.

85 pounds

12.95 cm

48.28 cm

57.15 cm

38.5 kg


Table shows the physical dimensions and weight of the array trays.

Weight

The total weight of a controller tray or expansion tray depends on the number of drives installed.

The maximum weight of a fully populated controller or expansion tray is 95.0 pounds (43 kilograms).


Environmental Requirements

This section describes the environmental conditions that are prerequisite to installing the unit, and heat conditions that are generated by normal operation of the unit.

TABLE 3-2 lists the environmental conditions in which the module is designed to operate.

5 G, 11 msec half sinewave in the front/back direction


Table shows the non-operating temperature, relative humidity, altitude, shock, vibration, and heat output ranges of the array trays.


Electrical Requirements

This section provides information regarding site power and wiring, module AC power requirements, and power cord routing instructions.

Site Wiring and Power

The tray uses wide-ranging redundant power supplies that automatically accommodate voltages to the AC power source. The power supplies operate within the range of 90 VAC to 264 VAC, at a minimum frequency of 50 Hz and a maximum frequency of 60 Hz. The power supplies meet standard voltage requirements for both domestic (inside USA) and international (outside USA) operation. They use standard industrial wiring with line-to-neutral or line-to-line power connections.

Power Input

The AC power sources must provide the correct voltage, current, and frequency specified on the tray model and serial number label. The tray can run without interruption within the limits shown in TABLE 3-4.

Specification

AC power (CU)

4.4 A maximum operating @ 100 VAC (90 VAC - 136 VAC range), 50/60 Hz

1.9 A maximum operating @ 240 VAC (198 VAC - 264 VAC range), 50/60 Hz

AC power (EXP)

DC Power

Power Cords and Receptacles

All modules are shipped with two AC power cords that are appropriate for use in a typical outlet in the destination country.

Each power cord connects one of the power supplies in a module to an independent external power source, such as those provided in the supported Sun cabinets, a wall receptacle, or uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
