DS6000 Series: Concepts and Architecture

Use the following steps to calculate the required space for your storage units:

1. Determine the dimensions of each model configuration in your storage units.

2. Determine the total space that is needed for the storage units by planning where you will 

place each storage unit in the rack.

3. Verify that the planned space and layout also meets the service clearance requirements 

for each unit.

We describe here the input voltage requirements for the DS6000 series.

The DS6000 series has built-in redundant, auto-sensing, auto-ranging power supplies. The 
power supplies are designed for operation in a voltage range of 90-257 V AC, 50-60 Hz.

Table 7-4 lists the input voltages and frequencies that the DS6000 series power line cords 
support. The values apply to both of the primary line cords to any storage or expansion 
enclosure in a DS6000 series. The DS6000 series power inputs are single phase.

Two independent power outlets for the two DS6000 power line cords are needed by each 
base model and expansion model. 

To properly maintain your DS6000 storage unit, you must install your storage unit in a location 
that meets the operating environment requirements.

Table 7-5 describes the environment operating requirements for the DS6000 series.

Nominal input voltages

100-127 RMS V AC 
200-240 RMS V AC

Minimum input voltage

90 RMS V AC

Maximum input voltage

264 RMS V AC

Input frequencies

50 ± 3.0 Hz 
60 ± 3.0 Hz

 To eliminate a single point of failure, the outlets must be independent. This 

means that each outlet must use a separate power source and each power source must 
have its own wall circuit breaker.
