Availability Predictable cooling Placing the unit in the row of racks moves the source of cooling closer to the heat load. This eliminates air mixing and provides a predictable cooling architecture. Dual A-B Power Inputs Draws power from the UPS for power protection with dual feeds for redundancy. Rack inlet control Rack inlet control guarantees inlet temperature to IT equipment. Top and bottom chilled water connections Allows chilled water to be connected from the top, if routing from overhead, or bottom, if on a raised floor. Active response controls Monitors and actively adjusts cooling capacity to ensure proper server inlet temperatures. Through the microprocessor controller, visibility into the operation and health of the unit is provided.
Total Cost of Ownership Variable speed fans Variable speed fans reduce energy consumption during off-peak cooling periods. Row-based architecture Captures hot exhaust air directly from the IT equipment, thereby increasing the unit's sensible cooling capacity over traditional cooling architectures.
