Overview
This section provides an overview of the HP Apollo 8000 System. Throughout this section, the various
specifications and aspects of the system are defined as thoroughly as possible so that all data is considered
for a successful site preparation.
Product overview
The HP Apollo 8000 System is a high-density, energy-efficient, sustainable high-performance computing
solution that uses an innovative warm-liquid cooling technology to fuel the future of supercomputing. It offers
hundreds of teraflops per rack to accelerate results, with a modular, rack-based system that is easy to install,
maintain, and monitor. Your customers can even recycle hot water "waste heat" to heat their data center
efficiently.
The HP Apollo 8000 System comprises the following components:
• One or more HP Apollo 8000 iCDU Racks and their associated onboard iCDU control system
• One or more HP Apollo f8000 Racks and their associated control system
• Primary plumbing interface assembly kit that connects the individual iCDUs to the facility water system
• Secondary plumbing system that connects the individual iCDUs to the HP Apollo f8000 Racks. This
secondary closed loop system provides cooling for the HP Apollo f8000 Rack and isolates the HP
Apollo f8000 Rack from untreated, potentially incompatible primary water.
• Drain and leak detection system
The iCDU performs the following functions:
• Accepts water supplied from the facility water system
• Returns heated water back to the facility water system
• Supplies cooled water to the HP Apollo f8000 Racks through the secondary plumbing system
• Accepts heated water returned from the HP Apollo f8000 Racks
• Maintains the preset water temperature and pressure in the secondary plumbing system
• Monitors system health
• Isolates primary and secondary water in case of a leak
For more information, see "Advantages of a dedicated secondary loop system (on page 23)."
Example configurations
The HP Apollo 8000 System is a self-contained IT product integrated with a closed-loop cooling system that
offers two configuration options.
