Rack Airflow Requirements
HPE ProLiant Compute XD230 System
The increasing power of new high-performance processor technology requires increased cooling efficiency for rack-mounted servers. For maximum cooling, HPE racks are recommended to allow these racks to be fully loaded with servers using the latest processors. For detailed information, please see HPE ProLiant Compute XD230 System User Guide.
Notes:
– If a third-party rack is used, observe the following additional requirements to ensure adequate airflow and to prevent damage to the equipment.
– When selecting Direct Liquid Cooling (DLC), HPE racks are required for factory integration.
– Always use blanking panels to fill all remaining empty front panel U-spaces in the rack. This arrangement ensures proper airflow. Using a rack without blanking panels will result in improper cooling that can lead to thermal damage.
Standard Features
Modular Common Redundant Power Supplies (M-CRPS)
HPE’s M-CRPS power supplies are certified for high-efficiency operation and offer multiple power output options—both high-line and low-line—enabling users to right-size the power supply for specific server configurations. In addition to more secure firmware upgrades and ease of serviceability, their flexibility helps reduce power waste, lower overall energy costs, and prevent “trapped” power capacity in the data center.
HPE M-CRPS power supplies are available in two physical design options (73.5 mm and 60 mm widths), allowing for hot-plug, tool-less installation into select HPE ProLiant Gen12 Performance Servers. This server supports the following power supplies:
– HPE 2400 W M-CRPS Kit — C20 connector
– HPE 3200 W M-CRPS Kit — C20 connector
Notes: All of the above power supplies are rated for 96% efficiency.

Cooling options
The following optional cooling technologies are compatible with both air cooled and liquid cooled HPE servers.
HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System (ARCS)
HPE ARCS can provide advanced cooling for HPE ProLiant Compute XD230 servers using facility water.
This cooling solution supports up to 4 full racks (servers, networking or storage) and manages 100% of the server heat in a completely enclosed cluster. It provides cool air for inlet side and manages exhaust heat, transferring it to facility water cooling. When servers with DLC are added to ARCS, the highest rack density is possible, with 100% heat transfer to facility water.
This option can be used for air cooled HPE ProLiant Compute XD230 racks or in combination with DLC to cool high density racks.
For additional information, refer to the HPE Adaptive Rack Cooling System QuickSpecs here.
HPE Rear Door Heat Exchanger (RDHX)
HPE RDHX can neutralize warm exhaust air from HPE ProLiant Compute XD230 servers using facility water.
This cooling solution attaches to the back of a single rack (servers, networking or storage) and neutralizes the hot air exiting the rack by transferring the heat to facility water cooling. When servers with DLC are added to RDHX, the highest rack density is possible, with 100% heat transfer to facility water.
This option can be used for air cooled HPE ProLiant Compute XD230 racks or in combination with HPE ProLiant Compute XD230 DLC to cool high density racks.
For additional information, please visit HPE Rear Door Heat Exchanger QuickSpecs here.

HPE Power Distribution UnitsPower Distribution Units (PDUs) are an integral piece to this data center solution and HPE offers several types. Basic PDUs provide reliable power with 0U or 1U installation options. Metered PDUs have added intelligence to precisely track power usage and switched PDUs provide both local and remote power management. There are additional metered PDUs that are recommended for this solution that are not part of the mainstream PDU product offering. They are as follows: | |
