Both 1U and 2U configured versions achieve the following:

• Reduce hotspots and bypass airflow by preventing equipment exhaust air or hot-aisle air from migrating to the conditioned air-intake stream at the front of the cabinet
• Deliver lower temperature conditioned air to the upper one-third of the cabinet, typically the hottest area and most prone to equipment failure
• Control airflow to save energy by adjusting cooling unit setpoints

Identify temperatures within a particular range, accurate to within +/- 1° C:

• Blue: Recommended Operating Range based on recommendations from ASHRAE
• Yellow: Allowable Operating Range based on equipment manufacturers’ recommendations for Class 1 IT equipment
• Red: Outside Allowable Operating Range, indicates a definite risk

Additional Features:

• Cantilevered sealing vanes eliminate the gap between adjoining Blanking Panels or with installed equipment
• Tool-free, snap-in installationrequires no additional parts or components for installation
• Easy-pull removal for any EIA-310-E standard openings using ergonomically designed finger grips
• 1U Panels stack 10 high and 2U Panels stack 20 high for easy storage and ready availability
• Upsite® Temperature Strip color-coded temperature ranges indicates potential hotspots by color based on ASHRAE Standard
• HotLok® Blanking Panels with Temperature Strips are a prerequisite to all cooling configurations best practices including hot and cold aisle containment
