Would anyone know how many BTU's

A fully loaded 6513 would put out? I need this so I can properly upgrade a data center's air Conditioning.

Thanks. That was what I needed.

You can also calculate Watts->BTUs with the following formulas:

For Watts --> BTU/Hour, multiply the wattage by 3.413

For Watts --> BTU / Minute, multiply the wattage by .005689

You can get a rough value for watts by multiplying the voltage X the amperage (i.e., 120V @ 10Amps = 1200 Watts .... not exactly, but close enough).

FWIW

Ciscos also have a tool to work out the exact power and heat load based on actual configuration. Also provides the % of capacity utilised on the power supplies units, pretty essential at design phase to ensure the correct PSUs are specified.

A must use tool.....
