• User manual (this document)
• Liebert XDR module
Installation Considerations
The Liebert XDR is designed for attachment to the rear of computer cabinets in the data center. See
4.0 - Mechanical Considerations for details.
2.4.1 Room Preparation
The room should be well-insulated and must have a sealed vapor barrier. The vapor barrier in the
ceiling and walls can be a polyethylene film. Paint on concrete walls and floors should contain either
rubber or plastic.
NOTE
The vapor barrier is the single most important requirement for maintaining environmental
control in the conditioned space.
Outside or fresh air should be kept to a minimum when temperature and humidity must be tightly
controlled. Outside air adds to the cooling, heating, dehumidifying and humidifying loads of the site.
Doors should be properly sealed to minimize leaks and should not contain ventilation grilles.

General Product Information
3.0 GENERAL PRODUCT INFORMATION
3.1 Product/System Description
The Liebert XDR is a cooling system for high-density heat loads that mounts on the rear of a
24" x 42U rack (for other sizes consult the factory) and maintains access to the back of the server
rack. Room air is drawn in through the front of the rack and picks up heat from the servers. The coil
captures that heat, cooling the air, which is expelled through the rear of the rack.
The Liebert XDR relies on the rack equipment’s fans to move air across the micro-channel coil. Cap-
™
tured heat is carried away through pumped R-134a refrigerant supplied by either a Liebert XDP or
™
Liebert XDC .
The complete cooling system may include other Liebert XD cooling modules, such as the Liebert
™
™
™
™
™
XD Flex Piping.
The Liebert XDR is not expected to produce any condensation because of its location, usually in the
data center. A condensate pan is provided as a precaution. It does not have a drain fitting or other
means of being emptied.
Four handles to ease carrying the Liebert XDR are attached at the factory. These should be removed
after the module is attached to the rear of the enclosure. Leaving the handles attached would require
space between the racks. The handles should be retained for use if the Liebert XDR is removed from
the enclosure.

Checking and Unpacking
Upon arrival of the module and before unpacking it, verify that the labeled equipment matches the
bill of lading.
Inspect all items for either visible or concealed damage. Damage should be immediately reported to
the carrier and a damage claim filed with a copy sent to Emerson or to your sales representative. If
you later find any concealed damage, report it to both the shipping company and your local Emerson
representative.
Check to be sure all required assemblies and parts have been received.
remove these protective items from the Liebert XDR before it is at the installation location. When
unpacking and handling the Liebert XDR, exercise extra care to prevent damage.

WARNING
!
Risk of 130-pound (59 kg) module falling. Can cause equipment damage, personal injury or
death.
Do not leave a Liebert XDR standing unattended on its side or its end without adequate
support to prevent it from falling over. The Liebert XDR must be supported at all times or laid
flat on protective material until it is installed.
Two properly trained and qualified people are required to move the module.
When unpacking and handling the module, exercise extra care to prevent damage.
Use a forklift or pallet jack to move the Liebert XDR. If multiple Liebert XDR modules are delivered,
they will be shipped on a pallet with up to four modules. A pallet jack will be required to move these
modules to the installation location.
• If using a forklift or pallet jack, ensure that the fork tine length is suitable to safely move the
packaged module.
• Keep the module in the protective packaging until it has been moved to the installation site.
• When handling and unpacking the module, exercise great care to prevent damage.
• Do not lift the module any higher than 6" (152mm) while moving it. If it must be lifted higher
than 6" (152mm), exercise great care and keep all personnel who are not helping move the module
at least 20 feet (5m) away from the module.
• Do not use module piping to lift or move the Liebert XDR.

Mechanical Considerations
4.3
Airflow
The server fans draw air into the equipment enclosure. After heated the air, the server fans force the
air across the Liebert XDR’s two coils. The Liebert XDR has a low air-side pressure drop (similar to a
rack with perforated doors). The server fans within the rack create sufficient airflow to move the air.

NOTE
Air bypass and recirculation can severely reduce the cooling effectiveness of the Liebert XDR.
Blanking plates must be installed in any voids in the rack to prevent air bypass and air
recirculation. Contact the factory for further information. Refer to the user manual supplied
with the rack the Liebert XDR is mounted on.
Efficient cooling of rack equipment depends on proper use of blanking plates in any voids in the rack
and good cable management. Keep the Liebert XDR’s coils clear of any obstructions that may block
the airflow.
Each of the Liebert XDR’s coils removes approximately half the load. For even cooling in partially
filled racks, servers should be evenly spaced and blanking plates should be installed on unused rack
spaces to prevent recirculation of heated air.

Installation
5.0 INSTALLATION
5.1
Installing the Rack-Mounting Kit onto the Rack
The Liebert XDR module mounts on the rear of the rack using a mounting kit. The mounting kit
secures the Liebert XDR's frame to the rack. Two rails are attached to the rear of the rack with
M6 x 12 bolts. The number of bolts can vary depending on the rack.
Before beginning to attach the rack-mounting brackets to the rack, remove the rear door from the
rack. Refer to the rack’s installation manual for details.
1. Insert and screw in the M6 x 12mm bolts that shipped with the Rack Connecting Bracket.
2. Tighten the bolts with a 10mm wrench.

Risk of 130-pound (59 kg) module falling or causing cabinet to tip over. Can cause equipment
• Read all instructions before beginning.
• Use caution when installing the Liebert XDR on an equipment cabinet, particularly a cabi-
net with little equipment installed. Lack of weight in the cabinet could cause it to tip while
the Liebert XDR is being installed.
• Two properly trained and qualified people are required to handle the Liebert XDR.
• Do not move a cabinet with a Liebert XDR installed on it.
The rack-mounting brackets must be mounted on the rack before the Liebert XDR can be installed.
1. Thread one of the provided M6x12 bolts into the top threaded hole of each rail attached to the
rack.
2. Use fingers or a 10mm wrench to tighten the bolts, leaving a 1/8" (3-4mm) gap between the bolt
heads and the rail. This gap is necessary to allow the door to fit over the bolts and hang safely on
the rack.
3. With another person, lift the Liebert XDR by the handles on the sides, match the two keyhole
slots near the top of the Liebert XDR frame to the bolts and hang the Liebert XDR on the rack.
4. Thread the remaining bolts through the holes in the frame and into the mounting rails.
5. Tighten all of the bolts snugly with a 10mm wrench.

Piping
6.0 PIPING
Refer to site-specific drawings for general locations of the piping connections. The drawings should
specify where the piping connects to the Liebert XDR.
6.1
European Union Fluorinated Greenhouse Gas Requirements
Stationary air conditioning, refrigeration, heat pump equipment and stationary fire protection sys-
tems in the European Community market and operating with fluorinated greenhouse gases (f-gas),
such as R407C, R-134a, R410A, must comply with the F-Gas Regulation: (EC) No. 842/2006 (F-gas).
The regulation prohibits, among other actions, venting fluorinated greenhouse gases to the atmo-
sphere.
The F-Gas Regulation requires operators to use all measures that are technically feasible and do not
entail disproportionate cost to prevent leakage of these gases, to test for leakage regularly and to
recover f-gas before disposing of equipment, as well as during service and maintenance.
Refer to the full regulation for additional details.
6.2
System Connection Configuration
If possible, connect the Liebert XDR modules to Liebert XDPs or Liebert XDCs in an interlaced
configuration (see Figure 12). In an interlaced configuration, half the cooling modules in an aisle are
connected to one Liebert XDP or Liebert XDC and the other half in that aisle are connected to another
Liebert XDP or Liebert XDC. Interlacing the connection piping will keep half the Liebert XDR
modules operating and maintain cooling in the conditioned space should one of the Liebert XDP or
Liebert XDC units fail.
However, if this is not possible, connect the Liebert XDR modules in a non-interlaced configuration

Connection Methods and Points
Refer to site specific drawings for general locations of the piping connections. For Liebert XDR con-
The assembly and connection means used for piping in the Liebert XD system are the same as those
used in conventional refrigeration systems. Observe all standard practices during installation and
startup to prevent damage and contamination. All piping must be ASTM Type ACR copper.
The Liebert XDR has supply and return piping access on the top of each module. Supply piping con-
nection is 1/2" OD copper pipe, and return piping connection is 7/8" OD copper. The hard-piped Lie-
bert XDR has a low-pressure nitrogen holding charge.
Both supply and return couplings may be supplied with optional one-shot couplings. These couplings
contain pressurized R-134a refrigerant inside the Liebert XDR.
For Liebert XDRs with removable couplings, the supply piping connection is 1/2" OD and the return
piping connection is 7/8" OD. Both the Liebert XDR and the Liebert XD Flex Pipe with removable cou-
plings have a low-pressure nitrogen holding charge.
6.4
6.5
Insulation
To minimize the possibility of condensation, insulate all piping between the Liebert XDR and the Lie-
bert XDP or Liebert XDC.
Venting the Holding Charge for Hard-Piped or Removable Liebert XD Flex Pipe
Couplings
The Liebert XDR in either hard-piped configuration or with removable couplings is shipped with a
low-pressure holding charge (about 30 psi) of nitrogen to prevent oxidation and moisture. This must be
vented from the refrigeration circuit before removing the copper cap.
NOTE
This procedure is for modules with hard-piped or removable couplings ONLY. Do not vent a
pre-charged Liebert XDR or pre-charged Liebert XD Flex Piping.
To vent the holding charge:
1. Find the Schrader valve that retains the nitrogen holding charge in the Liebert XDR. The valve is
for removable couplings).
2. Vent the holding charge in the circuit by depressing the pin in the Schrader valve on the supply
line.
3. Replace and secure the cap on the Schrader valve that was opened.
15
Piping
6.5.1 Brazing Preparations
The assembly and connection means used for piping in the Liebert XD system are similar to those
used for conventional refrigeration systems. All piping should be installed with high-temperature
brazed joints. Soft soldering is not recommended.
After the holding charge has been vented and before brazing, wrap a wet rag around the copper con-
nections before removing the caps to prevent internal component damage. A torch can be used to
remove the caps over the ends of the supply and return lines.
During brazing, the lines must be filled with flowing dry nitrogen to prevent excessive oxidation and scale
formation inside the piping. Prevailing good refrigeration practices must be employed for piping supports,
leak testing, dehydration and charging. Failure to use good system practices may result in damage to the
system. Refer to the ASHRAE refrigeration handbook for general good-practice refrigeration.

6.7.1 Connecting Methods—One-Shot Couplings for Pre-Charged Refrigerant Option
CAUTION
!
Risk of sudden refrigerant discharge. Can cause loss of charge and minor injury.
If the optional pre-charged option is chosen, the Liebert XDR is shipped with a full charge of
R-134a refrigerant under pressure. Do not remove the pipe caps or plugs before the module is
ready for connection to Liebert XD Piping.
Supply and return fittings on the pre-charged Liebert XDR modules are one-shot couplings.
Do not disconnect one-shot couplings after they have been connected. Disconnection will
release pressurized R-134a refrigerant from the Liebert XDR.
Liebert XDRs with the pre-charged option are equipped with one-shot couplings on the supply and
return fittings. These contain a charge of R-134a refrigerant under pressure within the module. This
charge must not be vented.
Do not remove the pipe caps or plugs before the module is ready for connection to Liebert XD Piping.
Do not disconnect one-shot Liebert XD Flex Pipes after they have been connected.
The assembly and connection means used for piping in the Liebert XD system are the same as those
used in conventional refrigeration systems. Observe all standard practices during installation and
startup to prevent damage and contamination.
Both supply and return fittings may be supplied with optional, one-shot couplings. These fittings con-
tain pressurized R-134a refrigerant inside the Liebert XDR.

Fluorinated Greenhouse Gas Requirements
Stationary air conditioning, refrigeration, heat pump equipment and stationary fire protection sys-
tems in the European Community market and operating with fluorinated greenhouse gases (f-gas),
such as R407C, R134a, R410A, must comply with the F-Gas Regulation: (EC) No. 842/2006 (F-gas).
The regulation prohibits, among other actions, venting fluorinated greenhouse gases to the atmo-
sphere.
The F-Gas Regulation requires operators to use all measures that are technically feasible and do not
entail disproportionate cost to prevent leakage of these gases, to test for leakage regularly and to
recover f-gas during equipment service and maintenance and before disposing of equipment.
Refer to the full regulation for additional details.
