Notes:
[1] The power supplies automatically accept any voltage within the 200-240 V AC,
50/60 Hz rated-voltage range. If dual power supplies are installed and operating, the
power supplies draw approximately equal current from the utility (electrical supply) and
provide approximately equal current to the load.
[2] Power draw and heat load vary greatly by configuration and workload. When you
plan for an electrical system, it is important to use the maximum values but actual power
and cooling will be less.
