Thermal Controller is ATCA-compliant.
Press Release Summary:
Used with engineered thermal solutions for electronic equipment, ATCA-compliant dual IPMI bus fan tray controller offers multiple filter clog and maintenance schemes as well as fan failure prediction and monitoring. Real-time selection of fan tray mode enables synchronized, closed-loop control of RPMs. Controller also offers real-time IPMI-based configuration of alarm thresholds and fan control curve set points as well as access to fan speeds, PWM values, and CLEI code data.
Original Press Release:
New ATCA-Compliant Controller from DegreeC
MILFORD, NH (USA) - Degree Controls, Inc. (DegreeC) announces a new ATCA-compliant dual IPMI bus fan tray controller for use with the company's engineered thermal solutions for electronic equipment. This feature-rich thermal controller offers the following capabilities:
· Real-time IPMI-based selection of fan tray mode for synchronized, closed-loop control of RPMs, using any combination of inlet/exhaust or blade-sensed temperatures;
· Real-time IPMI-based configuration of alarm thresholds and fan control curve set points, plus access to fan speeds, PWM values, temperature, and CLEI code identification;
· Private I2C-based communications bus between fan trays for chassis containing multiple fan trays;
· Fire response functionality either to reduce or increase fan speed, depending on chassis architecture.
This flexible controller also features multiple filter clog and maintenance schemes, fan failure prediction and monitoring, and designed fault speed.
The new ATCA-compliant controller operates with DegreeC's standard voltage regulator circuit in which a wide voltage input (36-75 VDC) can be regulated to 48 VDC nominal.
