Condensation management 

  

 

CAUTION: 

 During operation, avoid leaving the HP POD doors open, to minimize 

condensation conditions. 

  

Supply cooling water that is above the dewpoint inside the HP POD to reduce condensation forming on 

the heat exchangers, and also cold enough to maintain the cold aisle temperature setpoint. If both 

conditions cannot be met during the HP POD startup, adjust either the cooling water or the cold aisle 

temperature setpoint above the dewpoint by one degree every fifteen minutes. During this process, the 
coils act as a dehumidifier and establish conditions inside the HP POD for sustained operation. Significant 

amounts of condensation might drain from the HP POD during the startup process, if the conditions inside 

the HP POD are very warm with high humidity. 
During normal operation, some condensation might form on the heat exchangers, and it will be collected 
in the heat exchanger drip tray. The drip trays then collect and drain through the condensate drains out of 

the HP POD. 
HP recommends connecting condensate drains on the HP POD to a facility drain to prevent the collection 

of water near the HP POD. 
There are three 1.9 cm (¾ inch) condensate drain outlets across the rear of the HP POD directly 

connected to the heat exchanger drip trays. The water main external drain is located at the front, left 

corner of the HP POD. A fifth drain is located on the (optional) humidifier. For specific drain locations, see 

Drain locations ("

To avoid excessive buildup of condensate and to conserve energy, consider raising the cooling water 
temperature above the dewpoint to manage condensation while maintaining the necessary cooling 

capacity.
