Summary report

On site evaluation of your data center

We collect key data and measure the temperature and airflow at critical locations. We will notify you immediately of hot spots, equipment malfunctions, or other areas with potential cooling problems.

Data Center Cooling Services

Accurate CFD model of your data center

Our engineers are highly skilled in the use of advanced analysis tools used to solve the most challenging thermal problems.

Data Center Cooling Services


Expert assessment of the cooling behavior of your data center

We identify problem cooling areas, such as hotspots and insufficient air cooling to your equipment racks. We identify inefficiencies caused by equipment layout or operating set point conditions.

Data Center Cooling Services
Entire data center is overcooled to maintain low rack inlet temperatures

Data Center Cooling Services
Mixing air streams reduces cooling efficiency
 

Data Center Cooling Services
In front to back rack alignment, heated exhaust air mixes with cold inlet air and wastes cooling
Data Center Cooling Services
Heated exhaust air recirculating back to the inlet
 
 

“What if” analysis

We perform failure mode analysis to determine the effects of CRAC failures or operation
during peak loads.
Data Center Cooling Services
All CRACs on

Data Center Cooling Services
One CRAC unit turned off



We investigate multiple scenarios on how to make the most of your existing facility without investing in new real estate or cooling infrastructure. We identify the most efficient methods to improve the cooling efficiency of your computing environment and maximize the utilization of your existing floor space.
