Automatic Door Release Kit Overview
The Automatic Door Release Kit is designed as a safety mechanism in the event that the MCS 5042 unit shuts
off unexpectedly. If the MCS 5042 unit shuts off unexpectedly, the electromagnetic locks on the front door,
the rear master door, and the rear slave door are immediately deactivated. This deactivation of the
electromagnetic locks will cause the release springs on each door to spring the rack doors open and allow
air flow and cooling to the servers in the rack.
The Automatic Door Release Kit is included with your MCS 5042 unit. For specific installation instructions,
see the HP mc-Series 5042 Rack Automatic Door Release Kit Installation Instructions included with the kit.
