InfraStruXure InRow RC

Model #: InfraStruXure InRow RC

The predictable solution for an unpredictable environment.
Data center heat densities continue to increase, making it more difficult to provide adequate cooling. The distance between heat sources and heat removal systems must decrease to ensure proper airflow paths. The closer to the heat generation source the air conditioner is, the less likely mixing of hot and cold air streams will occur. The InfraStruXure® InRow RC is a computer room air conditioning system with a horizontal airflow pattern specifically designed for hot aisle/cold aisle configurations. Warm exhaust air is drawn from the hot aisle, cooled, and distributed into the cold aisle, ensuring that equipment inlet temperatures are constant and adequate for proper operation. Closely coupling the air conditioner with the heat source produces warmer return air to the system. This increases the heat removal capacity of the system and nearly eliminates the need for make-up humidification.

Specifications

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.

Total Cost of Ownership

Variable speed fans - Variable speed fans reduce energy consumption during off-peak cooling periods.

In-Row architecture - In-row architecture enables pay-as-you-grow deployment of cooling.

Agility

Modular design - Modular design provides scalable solutions to add cooling as demand increases.

Serviceability

Hot swappable fans - Allows system to remain operational if a fan replacement is required.
