Retrofit a repurposed hall for HPC DC for academic, research and industry community
To deliver low PUE for 1.4MW Heat Load Handling for 70 racks
To deploy mixed rack designs housing various HPC and IT equipment configuration
Needs non-intrusive cooling solutions for servers
Ensure zero water damage risk to computing equipment
How We Solved It
Passive heat removal for low PUE and carbon emission
Standardized docking structure to support docking of mixed rack designs
Closed-coupled server rack heat removal
Refrigeration-based solution to remove water damage risk
Colocation Data Center Operator A
The Problem
An office space was converted to a Data Center Suite with 2N resiliency. This conversion brought out a a couple of problems with regards to running a data center in the location:
Limited available power (only 0.2MW)
Limited workable data floor space (75 m2)
Deploying CRAC can only support 15 racks
How We Solved It
After our initial assessment of the data center, we recommended a retrofit of the system to introduce cooling elements and increase productivity and efficiency of their data center: with the KoolLogix System, we:
Fully utilized data center space with 30 racks
Improved overall PUE (exclude outside plant) from 1.2 to 1.08
Colocation Data Center Operator B
The Problem
Upgrade existing DC suite from 3kVA/rack to increase business competitiveness
Airflow challenges
Unoccupied space which can house additional 20 server racks
How We Solved It
Outfitted KoolLogix System to minimize disruption and enhance business selling proposition
Increased airflow and cooling capacity by 3 times
Increased all rack power density from 3kVA to 9kVA per rackAllowed operator to maximise space by adding additional 20 server racks
Colocation Data Center Operator C
The Problem
DC hall with limitation in space to optimize yield per square foot.
How We Solved It
Deploy clusters of KoolLogix Systems for each tenant needs within secured cages
Enabled operator to roll out 20kW/rack capability across the data center
Optimized yield per rack
Optimized available data floor space
Reduced hot spots by improving airflow management
Energy Utility Company
The Problem
An energy utility company has set-up a data center facility for their operations, however, challenges in cooling including hotspots, as well as an underutilized floor area makes this setup inefficient:
Designed to house 180 racks, but can only cater for 150 racks (15 rows)
CRAC cooling limitation leads to serious hot spot occurrences
How We Solved It
We found that a KoolLogix Systems supplement will drastically improve their situation, so we:
Reduced hotspot by introducing self-contained passive heat removal with 2N system
Eliminated hotspot and achieved airflow balancing
Additional 30 rack space utilized which was previously not, as existing solution was not able to extend cooling reach to beyond existing 150 racks.
