1.6 System Cooling
The chassis provides two non-redundant blower fans and one PCI cooling fan. When external
ambient temperatures remain within specified limits, the cooling system will provide sufficient air
flow for all drive configurations, processors, supported memory, and add-in cards.
1.7 Rack and Cabinet Mounting Options
The chassis was designed to support 19-inch wide by up to 30-inch deep server cabinets. The
chassis supports three rack mount options:
•A fixed mount relay rack / cabinet mount kit (Product order code - AXXBRACKETS )
which can be configured to mount the system into either a 2-post or 4-post rack cabinet
•A tool-less full extracting slide rail kit (Product order code – AXXHERAIL) designed to
support an optional cable management arm (Product order code – AXXRACKCARM).
•A basic slide rail kit (Product order code – AXXBASICRAIL) designed to mount the
chassis into a standard (19-inch by up to 30-inch deep) EIA-310D compatible server
cabinet.

Intel® Server System
SR1530AH
Intel order number D77400-002 Revision 1.0

2. Power Sub-System
The power sub-system of the server chassis consists of a single non-redundant 350 W power
supply with 7 outputs; 3.3V, 5V, 12V1, 12V2, 12V3, -12V and 5VSB. The form factor fits into a
1U system and provides a wire harness output to the system. An IEC connector is provided on
the external face for AC input to the power supply. The power supply provides two non-
redundant 40mm fans for self cooling. The power supply fans also provide additional airflow for
parts of the system.
The power supply operates within the following voltage ranges and ratings:
Parameter Minimum Rated Maximum Start up VAC Power Off VAC
Voltage (110) 90 Vrms 100-127 Vrms 140 Vrms 85Vac +/-4Vac 75Vac +/-5Vac
Voltage (220) 180 Vrms 200-240 Vrms 264 Vrms
Frequency 47 Hz 63 Hz
The power supply must operate within all specified limits over the following input voltage range,
shown in the table. Harmonic distortion of up to 10% THD must not cause the power supply to
go out of specified limits. The power supply shall power off if the AC input is less than 75VAC
+/-5VAC range. The power supply shall start up if the AC input is greater than 85VAC +/-4VAC.
Application of an input voltage below 85VAC shall not cause damage to the power supply,
including a fuse blow.

2.1 Mechanical Specifications
The 1U 350 W power supply is designed specifically for use in the Intel®Server Chassis
SR1530. The physical size of the power supply enclosure is intended to accommodate power
ranges from 350 W. The power supply size is 40mm x 106mm x 300mm and has a wire
harness for the DC outputs. The AC input plugs directly into the external face of the power
supply; refer to the following figure.
Figure 5. Power Supply Enclosure Drawing
Notes:
1. All dimensions are in mm.
2. The tolerance of the 40mm height dimension (marked with letter C) pertains to the metal case
only.

2.2 Airflow Requirements
The power supply shall incorporate two 40mm fans for self-cooling and system cooling. The
fans will provide no less than 8 CFM airflow through the power supply when installed in the
system. The cooling air will enter the power supply module from the non-AC side.

2.3 Acoustics
The power supply shall incorporate two variable speed fans. The fans’ speed shall vary linearly
based on output loading and ambient temperature. The declared sound power levels (LwAd) of
the power supply unit (PSU) must meet the requirements shown in the following table. Sound
power must be measured according to ECMA 74 (www.ecma-international.org) and reported
according to ISO 9296.
The acoustic measurement of the PSU shall be performed with the PSU fan operating at the
RPM corresponding to the operating conditions shown in the following table. The PSU acoustic
test report shall include the PSU dimension, photo, fan model and size, fan voltage (or duty
cycle), RPM, and PSU sound power level at each operating condition. The proper RPM
thermally sustainable shall be determined through PSU thermal testing, and shall be submitted
as an appendix to the acoustic test report.
The declared sound power level of the power supply module shall not exceed the levels
specified in the following table.
