Division II Workstations: Below is a sample PTEC calculation for a Workstation with two hard drives.
- 1..
Measure values using the Appendix A test procedure.
-
Off = 2 W
-
Sleep = 4 W
-
Idle = 80 W
-
Max Power = 180 W
-
- 2..
Note number of Hard Drives installed.
-
Two hard drives installed during test.
-
- 3..
Apply Weightings based on Table 4 to calculate PTEC:
-
Table 4:
Toff 35 % Tsleep 10 % Tidle 55 % -
= 45.10 W
-
- 4..
Calculate the PTEC requirement using the formula in Table 3.
-
PTEC = 53.2
- 5..
Compare the adjusted PTEC to the ENERGY STAR levels to determine if the model qualifies.
-
45.10 < 53.2
Workstation meets the ENERGY STAR requirements.
