HotLok Blanking Panel with Upsite Temperature Strip 1-U

The HotLok® Blanking Panel is a snap-in blanking panel that provides a 99.97+%+ effective seal in IT equipment cabinets. The state-of-the-art technology, designed for both 1U and 2U openings, controls airflow for optimized cooling effectiveness.

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:  

✓ Yellow: Acceptable Operating Range based on equipment manufacturers' recommendations for Class 1 IT equipment  

✓ Red: Outside acceptable operating range, indicates a definite hotspot or potential for condensation, either of which may result in equipment damage or failure.
