NOTE: The S800 and T800 Storage systems have circuit breakers located at both the front and
rear of the system. It is necessary to maintain access to both the front and rear circuit breakers.

Access Area During OperationCabinet Surface
36 in (91.4 cm)Front
30 in (76.2 cm)Rear
NoneLeft and right sides
NOTE: HP cabinets do not require side access during operation. However, during installation,
it is a good practice to allow 3 ft (91.4 cm) on one side of the cabinet in case it becomes necessary
to remove a side panel. For instance, access through a side panel may be required for overhead
power cable routing.
Meeting Environmental Conditions
For the HP 3PAR Storage systems, it is recommended that you maintain a controlled environment
requiring a high degree of cleanliness, close control of temperature and humidity, and infrequent
personnel access.
HP also recommends the installation site meet the specifications detailed in GR-63-CORE for office
vibration.
CAUTION: The storage system operating environment must be free from continuous vibration
and from dust and other environmental contaminants.
In addition, the operating site must comply with the following environmental specifications (Table 6
(page 11)):

Maintaining the Optimal Temperature
The level of cooling required for the HP 3PAR Storage systems is quite different from the
air-conditioning used in offices. Comfort air-conditioning systems are designed for the lower heat
and higher moisture generated by the human body. In contrast, equipment has high heat output
that is moisture-free (sensible heat). In comfort systems, sensible heat normally produces 60 to 70
