Figure 2-9 Outdoor unit components

(1) Electric control box (2) Rack (3) Fan

Features
● The outdoor unit is equipped with a high-efficiency variable-frequency drive
axial fan to implement big air volume, low noise, and high efficiency.
● The outdoor unit has good waterproof performance and meets IPX5
requirements.

Issue 09 (2022-12-15) Copyright © Huawei Digital Power Technologies Co., Ltd. 28

NetCol5000-A(025, 035) In-row Air Cooled Smart
Cooling Product
User Manual (300 mm Width) 2 Product Description

● The outdoor unit adopts the variable-frequency drive. The speed adjustment
of the outdoor fan ranges from 10% to 100%. The minimum operating
frequency of the fan is less than or equal to 5 Hz. The outdoor unit is running
more steadily at low loads.
● The outdoor unit adopts the galvanized sheet and surface phosphatization +
powder coating techniques, the outdoor unit adapts to harsh environments
with its sound rigidity and anticorrosion performance.
● Pressure preservation is performed on the condenser before delivery, and the
pipe ports are properly sealed to prevent foreign matter from entry.

2.3.5 Low Temperature Component

When the outdoor temperature is below the operating temperature lower limit
specified for the product, the condensing pressure of the system for the outdoor
unit condenser with natural cooling may still be below the safe operating pressure
of the compressor. A low temperature component is required to address this issue.

The low temperature component automatically controls the condensing pressure

to ensure that the smart cooling product works safely and reliably at an outdoor
ambient temperature of –40°C.

● When the outdoor condensing pressure is lower than the designed opening
pressure of the condensing pressure regulator valve, the regulator valve closes
and the differential pressure valve opens. The refrigerant at the compressor
outlet is bypassed to the liquid storage unit of the low temperature
component through the differential pressure valve, ensuring that the
condensing pressure stays within a safe and reliable operating range.
● When the condensing pressure is higher than the designed opening pressure
of the condensing pressure regulator valve, the regulator valve opens and the
differential pressure valve closes. The refrigerant at the compressor outlet
flows to the liquid storage unit of the low temperature component through
the condenser, and the system runs properly.

4.1.1 Layout Principles

The layout principles are as follows:

● If the outdoor unit is placed higher than the indoor unit, the vertical distance
between them should be less than or equal to 30 m. An oil trap should be
installed every 5 m to 6 m in the vertical direction along the gas pipe to
ensure system reliability.
● If the indoor unit is placed higher than the outdoor unit, the vertical distance
between them should be less than or equal to 8 m.

NOTICE

● During the calculation of height difference, the compressor base is

regarded as the baseline for the indoor unit.
● The inverted U-shaped trap should be higher than the top copper pipe of
the condenser.
● In the figures, is a sign of a tilt, indicating that the scale of the pipe
tilting is at least 1:200. The pipe tilting direction should be consistent with
the hypotenuse of the right triangle.
● An inverted U-shaped trap should be added if the indoor unit is lower than
the outdoor unit.
● Pipes through the wall or floor of the equipment room should be routed in
tubes, between which sealing measures (firestop putty recommended) are
taken.

4.1.2 Indoor Unit Installation Requirements

NOTICE

● If the actual total load of servers corresponding to a single smart cooling

product is less than 20% of the rated cooling capacity of the smart cooling
product or the equipment room is not properly sealed, the humidity in the
equipment room may be too high. This is not a product quality issue and
should be dealt with by adding a dehumidifier.
● Do not install smart cooling products near noise-sensitive places such as offices
and meeting rooms.

4.2.2.1 R410A Refrigerant

CAUTION

Do not use low-quality refrigerant. Huawei is not responsible for any damage
caused by low-quality refrigerant.

Follow these suggestions to choose high-quality refrigerant:

1. Contact the refrigerant producer to confirm the refrigerant authenticity.
2. As shown in Figure 4-23, place the refrigerant in an indoor place with
constant temperature and humidity for 24 hours. Then, use a thermometer to
measure the temperature of the refrigerant tank outer surface and connect a
pressure gauge to the pressure tank to measure the internal pressure. Find the
saturation pressure corresponding to the measured outer surface temperature
from Table 4-7. If the deviation between the saturation pressure and the
measured internal pressure is greater than 0.2 MPa, the refrigerant does not
meet the requirements and needs to be replaced.

User Manual (300 mm Width) 4 Installation

NOTICE

● When welding the pipes connecting to the indoor unit, protect the needle valve
and its tag.
● Before welding, take measures to protect the needle valve (discharge pipe
needle valve) within 500 mm from the welding position (by removing the valve
plug or wrapping the valve with a piece of wet cloth).
● During welding, avoid burning the bottom plate, top plate, and side panels,
especially the thermal insulation foam, labels, water pipes, and cables on the
side panels.
● During welding, do not expose the refrigerant pipes for over 15 minutes.
Otherwise, system reliability may deteriorate.
● To avoid air leaks and damage to copper pipes, seal the holes after the pipes
are routed. Seal the ends of the copper pipes to prevent foreign matter from
entering the refrigerant pipes.
● All refrigerant pipes should be wrapped with thermal insulation foam.
● Avoid elbows and ensure that the pipe route between the indoor and outdoor
units is as short as possible.
● During welding, after the nitrogen cylinder is connected to the reducing valve,
connect one end of the rubber hose to the reducing valve and the other end to
the copper pipe and add 0.03–0.05 MPa nitrogen to the copper pipe for
preventing internal oxidation.

When selecting the refrigerant pipes, note the following:

1. Avoid elbows and ensure that the connection between the indoor and
outdoor units is the shortest.
2. After determining the best pipe route between the indoor and outdoor units,
calculate the number of the components that cause local resistance loss, for
example, elbows, and convert them into the equivalent length to straight
pipes.
3. The total length of pipes connecting the indoor and outdoor units equals to
the equivalent length of the straight pipes plus the length of the straight
pipes connecting the indoor and outdoor units.
4. You are advised to select the pipes based on the total length of the pipes
connecting the indoor unit and outdoor unit, because different pipe diameters
influence the voltage drop and performance of the cooling system.
5. The maximum pipe length mentioned in this document is the equivalent
length.

● If a refrigerant pipe is straight, add a support every 1500 mm.
NOTE

Ask the site engineering personnel to prepare and install pipe supports. For details about
the pipe support requirements, see Figure 4-24.

Figure 4-58 Installing a refrigerant pipe

Procedure
Step 1 Remove the two plugs from the two ends of the refrigerant pipe using a welding
torque, as shown in Figure 4-59.

NOTICE

Exercise caution during welding to avoid burning components, such as rubber

rings, inside the cabinet.
During welding, fill nitrogen into the pipes to prevent oxidation, as shown in
Figure 4-60.
Nitrogen injection volume range: 6–12 L/min. The nitrogen injection time for the
entire system is greater than 2 minutes. The nitrogen injection time after pipe
welding is greater than 1 minute.
● When welding a gas pipe, gently inject nitrogen into the pipe through the
discharge pipe needle valve.
● When welding a liquid pipe, gently inject nitrogen into the pipe through the
liquid pipe needle valve.

4.7.3 Installing Drainpipes

When installing drainpipes, ensure that the following requirements are met:

● When purchasing water pipes, ensure that the water pipes covered with
thermal insulation foam can be routed through holes in the bottom or top
plate. For the hole specifications, see 4.1.3 Preparing Knock-out Holes for
the Indoor Unit.
● The humidifier water inlet pipe connects to a tap water system or source
other water supply systems, and the drainpipe connects to the drainage
system.
● It is recommended that a water leakage detection device be added to the top
drainpipe or water supply pipe to prevent faults caused by a pipe burst.
● The external drainpipe must have a downward gradient (> 1:100) along the
drainage direction, and no accumulated water is allowed.
● The maximum lift of the drainage pump is 4 m, with the drainage height and
drainpipe system resistance considered. If the total system lift is greater than
4 m, the water pump flow will be less than the rated flow. In this case,
shorten the drainpipe length, reduce the number of bends (to reduce local
resistance), or decrease the drainage height to ensure that the total system
lift is less than or equal to 4 m.
Total lift of the water pump = Drainage height (Vertical height difference
between the water pump and the highest point of the drainpipe) + Drainpipe
system resistance (Length of the straight drainpipe section x Equivalent lift of
the straight drainpipe section + Number of bends x Equivalent lift of bends)
Select a DN20 (3/4 inch) drainpipe. The equivalent lift of each meter of the
straight drainpipe section is 0.0323 m, and the equivalent lift of each bend is
0.0317 m.

m, and two bends are used. The total lift of the water pump is 4.129 m.
Calculation formula: 3.9 m + 5 x 0.0323 m + 2 x 0.0317 m = 4.129 m In this
case, the total lift is greater than 4 m, and the water pump flow is less than
the rated flow. It is necessary to shorten the drainpipe length, reduce the
number of bends (to reduce local resistance), or decrease the drainage height.
● Determine the drainpipe to be connected based on whether a water pump is
configured onsite.

4.7.5 Leakage Test with Nitrogen

Context

NOTICE

● The measuring range of the pressure gauge must be greater than or equal to
4.0 MPa, and the tolerance range of the rubber hose must be greater than or
equal to 4.5 MPa.
● During pressure preservation, do not remove the rubber hoses and pressure
gauges; otherwise, nitrogen may leak.

The nitrogen injection ports are located at the low-pressure needle valve and
discharge pipe needle valve, as shown in Figure 4-66.

Procedure
Step 1 Connect the pressure gauge, hose, and nitrogen cylinder. Install a reducing valve at
the outlet of the nitrogen cylinder, as shown in Figure 4-66. The outlet pressure of
the reducing valve must not be more than 3.0 MPa.

NOTICE

If the outlet pressure of the reducing valve is greater than 3.0 MPa, some parts of
the system may be damaged.

4.8.11 (Optional) Installing Teamwork and Monitoring

Communications Cables

NOTICE

● Units of different models and software versions cannot be networked for

teamwork.
● Select a monitoring cable connection mode based on the protocol supported by
the NMS.
● If the NMS supports the Modbus-RTU protocol, select RS485 monitoring.
● If the NMS supports Modbus-TCP/SNMP, select FE monitoring.
● The teamwork modes include FE teamwork and CAN teamwork. FE teamwork
is recommended. FE teamwork support point-to-point communication, long-
distance cascading, and group upgrade. If the number of units in a group is
greater than 16, FE teamwork needs to be implemented by group. The total
length of CAN teamwork cables should be less than or equal to 310 m.
Otherwise, the communication quality will be affected.
● The teamwork communications cables should be CAT 5e or higher shielded
network cables (cable impedance ≤ 10 m/ohm). Shielded metal RJ45
connectors should be used. The shield layer of the network cables should be
reliably connected to the shield layer of the RJ45 connectors to ensure that the
shield layers are properly grounded; otherwise, the teamwork networking of
the units may fail. If the RJ45 connectors are of poor quality or are not properly
crimped, the communication may be abnormal. Use a standard crimping tool
to crimp the RJ45 connectors onsite.
● The length of the network cable between adjacent units should be less than or
equal to 100 m. Route cables in compliance with local standards. Take
appropriate shielding measures, such as using a galvanized pipe or an ELV
cable tray, to reduce the impact of electromagnetic interference on teamwork
communication.

6.1.2 Vacuumizing
Procedure
Step 1 Connect a pressure gauge to the vacuum pump.
● If no low temperature component is installed on the outdoor side, connect the
pressure gauge and vacuum pump at the low-pressure and discharge pipe
needle valves to vacuumize the system simultaneously.

(4) Liquid pipe needle valve (5) Low-pressure needle valve (6) Discharge pipe needle

Step 2 In the beginning, the vacuum pump makes loud noises and exhausts white gas
from the exhaust vent. After 10 minutes, if it still exhausts white gas, observe it
for another 10 minutes because the cooling system may not be sealed properly or
there may be too much refrigerant or water in the cooling system.

Step 3 After 20 minutes, the pressure gauge pointers should be in the negative area and
the vacuum pump makes small noises. Close and open the pressure gauges
repeatedly for several times. The position of the pressure gauge pointers and the
sound made by the vacuum pump should not change. Otherwise, the cooling
system may not be sealed properly.

Step 4 After making sure that the cooling system does not leak, vacuumize for at least 80
minutes. The final pressure of the vacuum pump (absolute pressure) should not
be higher than 60 Pa and the sight glass shows that the vacuum pump is dry
(green) inside.

Step 5 After vacuumizing, close all valves of the pressure gauges and the vacuum pump
(no disconnection is required), preserve the pressure for 10 minutes, and ensure
that the system pressure (absolute pressure) is less than or equal to 90 Pa.
NOTE

If the minimum reading of the pressure gauge is greater than 60 Pa (absolute pressure),
ensure that the pointer stays at the smallest scale of the pressure gauge in vacuumizing
and preserve the pressure for 1 hour. Then check that the pressure does not rise.

6.1.3 Precharging Refrigerant

Prerequisites
Before precharging refrigerant, ensure that air is exhausted from the gas pipe
connecting to the refrigerant steel cylinder.

Context

CAUTION

● Wear antifreeze gloves when handling refrigerant.

● When charging refrigerant, you are advised to use a safety valve to prevent
refrigerant leakage during the removal of a rubber hose, which may cause
frostbite.

NOTICE

● Charge the refrigerant (R410A) after checking that the cooling system does not
leak and the vacuum meets the requirements.
● Charge refrigerant as required upon calculation shown in 6.1.1 Refrigerant
Charge Amount. Otherwise, the device may be damaged.

Procedure
Step 1 Close the high-pressure valve and low-pressure valve of the pressure gauge.
Step 2 Replace the vacuum pump with the steel cylinder of liquid refrigerant, as shown in
Figure 6-3.

User Manual (300 mm Width) 6 Power-On Commissioning

NOTICE

● Never move the hose or steel cylinder during refrigerant charging. Otherwise,
the value on the electric balance is influenced.
● When charging refrigerant for a cooling system without a low temperature
component, open only the low-pressure gauge valve. Charge less than 1 kg of
refrigerant from the low pressure side, and then close the low-pressure gauge
valve. Open the high-pressure gauge valve and charge the remaining
refrigerant from the discharge pipe needle valve on the high pressure side.
● When charging refrigerant for a cooling system with a low temperature
component, open only the low-pressure valve of gauge 1 and gauge 2. Charge
1 kg of refrigerant from the low pressure side, and then close the low-pressure
valve of gauge 1. Then, open the high-pressure valves of gauge 1 and gauge 2.
Charge the remaining refrigerant from the discharge pipe needle valve and
liquid pipe needle valve.

Step 6 Refrigerant to be precharged should be between half of the total calculated

amount and the total calculated amount. If the total amount is not reached after
refrigerant precharging, charge the remaining refrigerant when commissioning the
system, as described in 6.7 Charging the Remaining Refrigerant.
Step 7 Close valves of the pressure gauges and refrigerant steel cylinder after charging
refrigerant.
NOTE

Tighten the needle valve bonnets when the charge is complete. Check whether a needle valve
leaks by applying soapy water to the valve vent or using a halogen leak detector. If the valve
leaks, contact Huawei technical support.

NOTE

If the suction pressure and discharge pressure are not within the normal range, check the
following items:
1. Charge refrigerant in an amount exactly as standard charge required. (Refrigerant charging
too much would result in high discharge pressure. Refrigerant charging too little would result
in low suction pressure and low discharge pressure.)
2. The air inlet and outlet of outdoor unit are without block. (The air inlet and outlet blockage
would result in high discharge pressure.)

Step 6 After charging refrigerant, close all valves, restore the thermal insulation foam on
the needle valves.

NOTE

● You are advised to use angle steel or channel steel. Thickness of 3 mm to 5 mm is

recommended.
● Control welding errors during the manufacturing process. If welding errors are large, the
base will be unusable after welding.
● The M12 bolt used for securing the cabinet to its base must be at least 80 mm long.
● The base bearing capacity must be at least 2 t.
● Connect adjacent bases in parallel using bolts. Ensure that each base is secured to the
ground through at least four corners.

1. Angle, square, or channel steel with a width of 45–60 mm and a thickness of

4–5 mm is recommended.
a. If the angle steel width is less than or equal to 60 mm, there is no need
to consider measures for avoiding blockage.
b. If the angle steel width is greater than 60 mm, the base interferes with
the hole for routing cables. In this case, cut holes on the angle steel to
avoid blockage.
2. Install shock pads between the base and the unit. The shock pads should be
made of EPDM rubber and 5 mm thick.
3. Control welding errors during the manufacturing process. If welding errors are
large, the base will be unusable after welding.
4. The base height can be adjusted based on site requirements.
