Matrix: How do I calculate the BTU per hour rating on a Eclipse frame?

Question:  We are installing a Eclipse Median, and I need to provide a BTU/hr rating to the HVAC engineers at this facility so they can provide adequate ventilation in the server room. Can you provide me with a BTU/hr rating for this device? 
Config:
2 x E-QUE
1 x MVX-16
Answer:  To calculate the BTU per hour figure on a Eclipse series frame:
a)  Use the Eclipse System Power calculator.xls Excel spreadsheet to calculate the Wattage consumption figure (add in the (1) MVX-A16 card and (2) E-QUE card sets, this will give the result for the Median series frame which should be 65.85 Watts
b)  Plug in the 65.85 Watts figure into a power conversion chart or go online to a website power conversion chart and plug in the wattage figure and set the output function of the chart to BTU per hour. 
c)  The resultant conversion should be 225 BTU per hour. 

Note:  The Eclipse HX System Power calculator.xls is attached below, it can also be found on the EHX installation disk.  A typical online power conversion chart URL is listed here:  http://www.unit-conversion.info/power.html
