Dell PowerStore Planning Guide

Power requirements for PowerStore 500T

Power requirements vary depending on system configuration, loading, and environmental conditions. The table below provides worst case data. To estimate power consumption values for your specific environment, use the Dell Power Calculator.

Table 1. Power requirements for AC powerColumn one lists the power requirements, and column two provides the values.
Requirement PowerStore 500T
Maximum input power 100 to 240 VAC ± 10%, single phase
AC line current (operating maximum) 10 A max at 100 VAC
5 A max at 200 VAC
Power consumption (operating maximum at 200 VAC) 1004.1 VA (984 W)
Heat dissipation (operating maximum at 200 VAC) 3.54 x 106 J/hr (3,358 Btu/hr)
AC inlet type (high line) IEC320-C14 appliance coupler per power zone (200 VAC)
AC inlet type (low line) IEC320-C20 appliance coupler per power zone (100 VAC)
Normal input frequency 47 Hz–63 Hz
Maximum inrush current 45 Apk "cold" per line cord at any line voltage
AC protection 20 A fuse on each power supply, single line
Ride-through time 10 ms min
Current sharing ± 5 percent of full load between power supplies
Startup surge current 120 Apk "hot" per line cord, at any line voltage
Table 2. Power requirements for DC powerColumn one lists the power requirements, and column two provides the values.
Requirement PowerStore 500T
DC line voltage -39 to -72 DC
DC line current (operating maximum) 28.2 max at -39 VDC
22.9 max at -48 VDC
15.3 max at -72 VDC
Power consumption (operating maximum) 1100 W
Heat dissipation (operating maximum at 200 VAC) 3.96 x 106 J/hr (3,753 Btu/hr)
DC inlet type Positronics PLBH3W3M4B0A1/AA
Maximum inrush current 40 A peak
DC protection 50 A fuse in each power supply
Ride-through time 1 ms min at -50 V input
Current sharing ± 5 percent of full load between power supplies
Table 3. High ambient temperature shutdownColumn one lists the ambient temperature, and the other columns provide the faults and consequences.
Ambient temperature Hardware fault Consequence
Above 45° C (113° F) None Noncritical warning generated .
Above 50° C (122° F) None A critical alert is generated. The system shuts down after five minute timer expires. If the temperature returns to less than 45° C (113° F) , the system powers on.
Any The three hottest drives have an average temperature of 50° C (122° F) The system shuts down after five minute timer expires.
Any Two fans fault The system shuts down after five minute timer expires.
