Thermal and acoustics

The PowerEdge R220 was designed with the goal to offer a class leading chassis depth all while

meeting the acoustical requirements for office environment.

Thermal design

The system’s PWM fan is controlled by the iDRAC. The thermal sensor on front control board senses

the ambient temperature and adjusts the fan speed accordingly. In a normal office environment the

fan spins slower, resulting in low acoustics. The fan RPM begins to ramp up with temperature to

satisfy cooling requirements at higher ambient temperatures, and different system configuration (e.g.

RAID card installation).

Optimized thermal management makes PowerEdge R220 cool and quiet with efficiency

improvements that save energy. Benefiting from a smart cooling thermal control algorithm, R220

can keep both high performance and good acoustics across a wide range of ambient temperatures

(10 °C ~ 35 °C).
