Raised Floor Optimization

It is a large expense to add additional air conditioning capacity to the data center.  With the increase in heat demands, it has become imperative to maximize the efficiency of your existing room air conditioning.  These relatively low cost and simple solutions which we offer can yield huge efficiency gains.  Count on Data Center Resources to help you keep your cool.

> Cold Aisle Containment
Cold Aisle Containment enables an existing cooling infrastructure to support higher heat loads and/or significantly improve cooling efficiency. The concept is to lock in the cool air delivered from CRAC where it is needed most, at the server intake.  It also eliminates re-circulation from hot aisle.

> High Air Flow Floor Tiles
Most data centers use perforated tiles to direct cooled air from the subfloor to the front of equipment racks.  Higher density racks may require a higher volume of cool air than traditional tiles can deliver.  High air flow floor tiles allow more for this greater air flow.  Use in areas where cooling needs a boost.

> Floor Grommets
Sealing the cable openings in raised flooring may not seam like a big priority, however, it can make a dramatic improvement in your cooling efficiency.  Cool air escaping from cut-outs reduces the under floor pressure which means less air flow from perforated tiles to cool your servers.

> Blanking Panels
Most likely the most simple and cost effective method for improving air flow efficiency is the use of blanking panels to fill unused "U" positions in rack or enclosure.  They help keep the cool air at the front of cabinet where servers intake air.
