Rittal Liquid Cooling Package Plus
6.4.3 Condensate discharge
connection
Any condensate which may develop is collected in the condensate collecting
tray in the water module of the Liquid Cooling Package Plus.

Upon reaching a defined condensate level in the collecting tray, a float actua-
ted switch activates a pump, which pumps off the condensate. The condensate
that is pumped out is guided out of the Liquid Cooling Package Plus through a
discharge hose (dimensions: external Ø = 8 mm, internal Ø = 6 mm) to an ex-
ternal drain.
In addition, the Liquid Cooling Package Plus is equipped with a condensate
overflow hose that guides any condensate out of the Liquid Cooling Package
Plus without pressure into an external drain, if the condensate pump or float-
actuated switch fails.
Both the condensate discharge hose and the condensate overflow hose are to
be connected to a drain equipped with a siphon trap.

Note:
In order to ensure safe condensate discharge, the following points should
be observed:
- Lay the discharge hose without kinks
- Do not constrict the hose cross section
- Lay the condensate overflow hose with a gradient
Note:
In order to avoid increased condensation and to reduce energy use, the
cooling water temperature should be adapted to match the required cooling
output.
