Introduction
1.0 Introduction
Congratulations on purchasing a Liebert Foundation. The highly versatile Foundation can provide an
organized, secure, controlled environment in a single system for your sensitive electronic equipment.
The Foundation is available in a variety of configurations to suit your electronic equipment’s environmental
needs. Whether you need a rack to organize your electronic equipment, locking doors for security, a UPS
for power protection, and/or an ECM air conditioner to keep your equipment at a constant temperature, the
Foundation will provide the level of protection you require.
The Foundation can be upgraded to fit your changing needs as your operations expand and you add more
sensitive electronic equipment.
1.1 About this Manual
The Foundation’s flexibility means that a variety of configurations exist for the unit. The various sections
cover:
• Frame—The basic setup; relevant to all Foundation configurations.
• Enclosure—The types of doors and side panels, as well as attendant hardware, available as
upgrades to accommodate various options.
• Power—The wide selection of Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) models and MP Advanced Power
Strips available for the Foundation.
• Environmental—Computer-grade environmental conditioning units that may be employed:
Environmental Control Module (ECM), Backup Cooling Module (BCM) and FAN Fan Cooling.
• Monitoring—Hardware to collect data about conditions within the Foundation and about its
components.
Any or all of the components may be included in your Foundation, depending on the unit’s configuration. If,
for example, your Foundation is equipped with an ECM, but no UPS or monitoring equipment, you might
want to read the sections on Frames, Enclosures and Environmental, skipping the sections titled Power
and Monitoring.

Major Components
2.0 Major Components
You may have any or all of the components discussed in this section, depending on your Foundation
configuration.
2.1 Frame
The base of all Foundation products is the frame. It comes in four
standard heights: 24, 44, 78 and 84 inches (610, 1118, 1981 and
2134mm). All 24-inch high units are wall-mountable and are furnished
with doors, side panels and 19" (483mm) square-hole mounting rails.
The 44-, 78-, and 84-inch frames can accommodate shelf- or rackmounted equipment on either 19- or 23-inch (483 or 584mm) adjustable,
square or threaded rails. See Foundation model numbers on page 89
and the subsequent illustrations for measurements of different models.
All units (with the exception of the wall-mount units) have leveling feet
and grounding lug. Casters are optional. All HK / RK non-sealed frames
can be enhanced and deepened with the Foundation EX Expansion
System.
The frame consists of heavy-duty, riveted 12-gauge steel construction,
painted black. The front and rear vertical frame members accommodate
internal mounting rail options and provide space to route and manage
customer cabling.
Various cutouts in the top, bottom and rear plates permit customer cable
entry; cover plates are provided as sealing and cooling options require.
Frames are selected as either non-sealed, (open frame or enclosure), or
as sealed (basis for NEMA12 enclosure). All options that are added to
the mounting frame conform to either the sealed or non-sealed
requirements as the sealing selection dictates.
2.2 Enclosure
The mounting frame can be upgraded to an enclosure system or to a sealed mini computer room, with the
addition of factory-installed panel and door configurations, gaskets and other options.
2.3 Doors
All doors are framed from sheet metal. A multi-point latch with key lock is provided for security. All doors
are removable and allow for reversible (left/right) hinging. The following doors are available:
• Plexiglas™ front door
• Sheet metal front and rear door
• Insulation provided on ECM applications
• Perforated front and rear door
• Rear doors are available in either full height or with cable entrance panels and as single- or dual-door

Back-Up Cooling Module (BCM)
For backup cooling, an optional Backup Cooling Module can be added to the
Foundation. When the self-contained BCM senses an internal temperature
100°F (38°C), the Backup Cooling Module fans will circulate filtered ambient air
through the enclosure. The BCM is not compatible with the 24" (610mm) wallmount or 44" (1118mm) tall Foundation enclosures.
A BCM Energy Saver (ES) Control is an add-on device that reduces energy
costs by allowing the BCM to operate as the primary enclosure cooler. The
BCM ES Control along with the high temperature alarm monitors air conditions
inside and outside the enclosure and, when appropriate, cycles off the ECM
and activates the BCM, reducing energy consumption.

5.2 Cable Management Considerations
When designing the equipment layout in the Foundation, consider how cables must be run for each
configuration and how cable runs affect cooling, access and operational factors, such as separating power
and communication cables to reduce electromagnetic interference.
Good cable management contributes to:
• Effective air flow for cooling
• Easier cable identification
• Improved access
• Reduced electromagnetic interference
• Proper bend radii, particularly for fiber optic cables
• Adequate support for large cables and heavy cable bundles

Startup
6.0 Startup
Before plugging in your electronic equipment, make sure that all power switches are in the OFF position.
Be certain there are no obstructions, wire bundles, manuals, trash, etc., in front of or on either side of the
ECM, if your unit is so equipped. Make sure all doors are shut and sealed properly. Plug the Environmental
Control Module (ECM) into a dedicated utility circuit.
• ECM's evaporator fan will begin to circulate air inside the enclosure as soon as power is supplied and
will operate continuously.
• The compressor in the ECM is controlled by a thermostat located in the rear left corner of the ECM.
This thermostat is factory-set and does not require adjustment. If the setting is changed, contact
Liebert Technical Support for assistance.
• The compressor in the Environmental Control Module will shut down if the ECM return air temperature
drops below approximately 75°F (18°C). The evaporator fan will continue to circulate internal cabinet
air throughout the sealed enclosure. The compressor will resume operating when the
FoundationFoundation ECM return air rises above approximately 75°F (18°C).
• Refer to the UPS manual for preparation for startup, details of UPS operation and the meaning of LED
indicators. After you have complied with the manual’s instructions, turn on the UPS. Check the UPS’
indicators. If the UPS’s status is normal, proceed with the next step.
• Turn on your computer and network equipment.
NOTE
The UPS’s batteries may require recharging before it can fully supply your equipment’s power
needs for the rated time if utility power fails.
To charge the UPS batteries before using the unit, you can apply power to the UPS module while
you are installing your equipment or while making adjustments.
NOTE
To avoid excessive condensation, turn off the ECM whenever the cabinet may be open for more
than 10 minutes, such as when removing doors and/or side panels while installing equipment. Also
ensure that any cable-entry points are sealed from external conditions vial the optional sealedentrance cable bundles or raceways.
NOTICE
Risk of drain pan overflow. Can cause extensive building and equipment damage.
Ensure that the cabinet is installed on a level surface. The ECM cooling module
must be level within 1/4 inch from front-to-rear and side-to-side to ensure proper
drainage of condensate water. Drain lines must be kept open and free of dirt and
debris. Regularly-scheduled maintenance must be performed.

Liebert® Foundation™ User Manual
Operation
7.0 Operation
7.1 Environmental
7.1.1
ECM (Environmental Control Module)
The ECM is applicable to any sealed Liebert Foundation enclosure (designated by model numbers HD or
RD). The Environmental Control Module (ECM) is sized to match the load capacity of the UPS system and
the ambient heat transmitted into the Foundation. The module is located at the bottom of the enclosure or
field-installed on top of the Foundation.
Outside (ambient) air is used to remove heat from the enclosure through the air-cooled condenser. The
outside air is drawn through the louver at the front of the ECM unit and discharged at the rear of the ECM.
The ECM isolates outside air from the unit's internal cooling circuit.
The compressor in the Environmental Control Module will shut down if the ECM return air temperature
goes below 75°F (18°C), but the internal cabinet air will be continuously circulated by the evaporator fan.
The compressor will resume operating when the Foundation ECM return air is above 75°F (18°C).
The ECM is equipped with a factory-set hot gas bypass valve so that the compressor will operate nearly
continuously for maximum compressor life. This valve modulates automatically to match compressor
capacity to the load. Consult Liebert Technical Support if factory adjustment is desired.
The ECM requires no external plumbing connections because excess condensate is evaporated into the
unit's heat-rejection air stream. A condensate drain tube (3/8” OD copper) is provided with the ECM. This
drain connection will route excess condensate out of the unit in the event of an extreme condition, such as
if a door is left open for an extended period while the ECM is operating, or in extremely humid
environments.
NOTE
To avoid excessive condensation, turn off the ECM whenever the cabinet may be open for more
than 10 minutes, such as when removing doors and/or side panels while installing equipment. Also
ensure that any cable-entry points are sealed from external conditions vial the optional sealedentrance cable bundles or raceways.
7.1.2
Backup Cooling Module (BCM)
If your Foundation MCR is equipped with the Backup Cooling Module (BCM) option, the BCM will
automatically start if the high temperature alarm module detects an internal cabinet temperature of 100°F
(38°C). The BCM will draw filtered exterior air into the Foundation MCR cabinet for use as supplemental
cooling and exhaust cabinet heat through the rear door. An audible alarm will sound until the cabinet
temperature decreases below 100°F (38°C) or is silenced by depressing the alarm silence switch on the
high temperature alarm module. Backup cooling requires the high temperature alarm module option. The
High Temperature Alarm Module also includes a dry contact for optional remote monitoring of a high
temperature condition. A separate control cable connects the BCM to the high temperature alarm module.
The BCM is normally powered through a 6-foot (1.8m) cord with NEMA 5-15 plug connected to the factoryinstalled UPS, but could also be powered from a source outside the cabinet.
Liebert® Foundation™ User Manual
35
Operation
7.1.3
BCM Energy Saver
The Backup Cooling Energy Saver (ES) is a factory-installed option that is useful in applications involving
low exterior cabinet ambient temperatures and humidity. An enthalpy controller is used to detect the
exterior cabinet ambient conditions. If the exterior ambient conditions are suitable, the energy saver
operation will disable the ECM and enable the backup cooling system to draw filtered exterior air into the
Foundation MCR cabinet for use as cooling. The high temperature alarm module monitors the interior
cabinet temperature and if the interior temperature is less than 90°F (32°C) and the exterior conditions
suitable, turns on the Backup Cooling ES and disables the ECM. If the cabinet temperature increases
above 90°F (32°C), the Backup Cooling ES is disabled for one hour and the ECM is enabled to supply
cabinet cooling. The one-hour time-out prevents cycling of the ES option.
7.1.4
Active Heat Rejection Options
Your Foundation requires external airspace to allow for dissipation of the heat rejected from the inside of
the enclosure. The Heat Rejection Fan (HRF) is offered as a field-installed option to assist in the removal
of rejected ECM heat from tight spaces or alcoves without adequate ventilation. The package includes a
combination blower with inlet air louver plate. The package provides provisions for ceiling grid installation
and connection of customer-supplied 8" (203mm) diameter exhaust duct (if required). The HRF is hardwired in the field and requires a 120VAC, 60Hz, 15A power source or a 230VAC 50Hz, 10A power source.
The ECM heat rejection duct connects directly to the enclosure and is available as an alternative to the
Heat Rejection Fan. The package includes a flexible, round duct that is 12 ft. long (365.76cm) and 8 in.
(20.32cm) in diameter. The duct is field-attached to the Foundation MCR and routed as required. An in-line
booster fan, powered by customer connection, is also included to overcome duct static pressure. This
option is available for 50Hz and 60Hz applications.
7.1.5
FAN Cooling
FAN cooling is used in lieu of the ECM / BCM cooling options. FAN cooling can be provided by a single fan
or by dual fans; a total of five fans can be installed in the unit. Outside air is drawn through the openings at
the bottom of the front and back of the unit and is discharged at the top of the unit. All 60Hz FAN units are
supplied with NEMA 5-15 plugs on 15-foot (4.6m) cords.
The optional FAN filter is located behind the intake air openings at the front and rear doors of the
Foundation. It should be checked periodically and cleaned. Remove the nuts securing the filter clips. Take
out the filter and wash it in soapy water. Then rinse, dry and replace it. Replace the filter clips and secure
to the Foundation.
7.2 Uninterruptible Power Supply
The Foundation may be supplied with any of several Liebert UPS units or with no UPS. For
integrated/matched models, the UPS and ECM are sized with matched capacities. A larger UPS, with
more battery time, can be obtained, but the connected electronics load should not exceed the ECM
equipment load rating. Exceeding the ECM rating could cause high temperatures that might damage the
equipment housed in the Foundation.
For Foundation models supplied with a UPS, refer to the separate UPS manual for UPS operation and
specifications.
36
Liebert® Foundation™ User Manual
Operation
7.3 SiteNet Integrator
The Liebert SiteNet Integrator is a separate rack-mount unit that communicates the status of the UPS and
the Foundation via Ethernet SNMP. The option consists of a SiteNet Integrator module that typically is
mounted in the top of the Foundation cabinet.
The SiteNet Integrator is powered by one or two externally mounted power supplies. One is standard; the
second provides optional input power redundancy for the SNI. These power supplies provide the 9 VDC
required to power the Integrator module. One supply will be plugged into the UPS or the UPS outlet strip in
the rear of the cabinet.
The power supply output cable is plugged into the SiteNet Integrator power supply main input
receptacle/socket. The second supply (if present) must be on a different circuit. The second supply’s
output cable is plugged into the SiteNet Integrator power supply auxiliary input receptacle/socket.
An optional UPS/SNI interface cable is available that allows transmission of information between the
Liebert UPS and the SiteNet Integrator. This cable will plug into the DB-9 connector on the rear of the UPS.
The opposite end of the cable is plugged into the connector on the rear of the SiteNet Integrator marked
UPS RS-232 DB-9P. Additionally, the SiteNet Integrator is capable of monitoring two Liebert
temperature/humidity sensors, a single temperature-only sensor, up to 10 digital/dry contact inputs and
includes two user-programmable relays.
When the high temperature alarm module is present, contacts are provided to annunciate a high
temperature alarm condition inside the cabinet. Customer connection is via 0.25" quick-connect terminals
on the high temperature alarm module in the upper right rear of the cabinet. The contacts are rated for 2
amps, 30 volts (Class 2 wiring).
7.3.1
SNI Sensor Options
All the options above are available factory-installed with the order or for field installation. Field-installed
options are shipped as kits containing the sensors with mounting hardware, cable and cable restraint
fixtures. Field installation requires hand tools for terminating the control cables and routing the cables.
Door Ajar—This option consists of two normally open switches that are mounted on the cabinet's front and
rear frame supports. The switches will indicate the position of the doors as opened or closed. This is
determined by the status of the dry-contact inputs connected to the SiteNet Integrator.
Temperature and Humidity Sensors (Internal and External)—The sensors allow monitoring of
temperature and humidity status by the SiteNet Integrator. The internal option is for installation inside the
Foundation cabinet and is supplied with a 38-inch (965mm) cord for connection between the
temperature/humidity sensor and the SiteNet Integrator. The external option is supplied with a 30-foot
(9.1m) cord for monitoring of temperature/humidity status outside the Foundation cabinet. The sensor and
connection requirements for both options are identical.
Water Detect—The water detect option includes a Liebert Liqui-tect (LT-410) dry contact sensor. The
sensor is powered by a 24VAC source connected through the high temperature alarm module. The
transformer for this source is inside the ECM or BCM (an optional 120V transformer is available when no
ECM is present).
The water detector is connected to a dry-contact input on the rear of the SiteNet Integrator by a 9-foot
(2.7m) cable. The detector typically is located outside the Foundation cabinet for external water detection.
Liebert® Foundation™ User Manual
37
Operation
Smoke Detector Option—A four-wire smoke detector with normally open contacts, heat sensor and
sounder alarm is mounted in the top of the Foundation cabinet. If smoke is detected, the normally open
contacts of the smoke detector will close to provide alarm status to the Integrator. The smoke detector
sounder alarm will also activate. This alarm is silenced by removing input power to the smoke detector.
The smoke detector option requires a 9VDC power source and is normally powered by the High
Temperature Alarm Module.
High Temperature Alarm Option - The high temperature alarm is a factory installed sensor / controller
module to annunciate high temperatures in the Foundation. When temperatures in the Foundation reach
100°F (38°C), an audible alarm and the BCM (if present) are activated. The high temperature alarm
module also includes a dry contact for optional remote monitoring of a high temperature condition. The
high temperature alarm is powered by the ECM, if the ECM is not included with the Foundation system, a
power supply option is required. The high temperature alarm module also provides input power to the
smoke detector option.

MP Advanced Power Strips—Installation
9.2 General Considerations
Read all instructions in this section before beginning to make high-voltage connections to your Liebert MP
Advanced Power Strip.
Refer to MP Advanced Power Strip specifications to determine the electrical ratings and specifications
of your Liebert MP Advanced Power Strip. It is imperative that the power supply and connections match
the specifications of the power strip being installed.
NOTE
Connecting your Liebert MP Advanced Power Strip and rack equipment to a power supply with an
incorrect rating in either voltage, amperes or phase may damage the connected equipment and
your Liebert MP Advanced Power Strip.
If you have questions about the power supply connections, contact your local Liebert
representative or Liebert Global Services at 1-800-LIEBERT.
NOTE
Shut down and unplug all equipment in your rack enclosure before beginning to connect the
equipment to your Liebert MP Advanced Power Strip.
Power cables must be routed through the Foundation’s cable management features before the equipment
is connected to the Liebert MP Advanced Power Strip and started up. See 5.1 - Cable Management for
details on routing power and communication wires.
When connecting the rack equipment to the Liebert MP Advanced Power Strip’s receptacles, arrange
cables and connections to avoid tangling and crisscrossing the power cables.
For power management purposes, record the receptacle where each piece of equipment is connected.
Receptacles on the Liebert MP Advanced Power Strip have a numerical designation. Liebert MP Advanced
Power Strips with more than one circuit are named with numbers and letters.
When connecting power to the Liebert MP Advanced Power Strip’s receptacles, follow generally accepted
procedures, such as routing the power cables separately from low-voltage communication and control
wires to prevent electromagnetic interference.
NOTE
All configuration steps in 10.2 - Monitoring Connections—Low Voltage Wiring must be
completed before attempting to start up equipment connected to the Liebert MP Advanced Power
Strip.
